'Havana 322' plants grows to about forty-eight inches tall when topped, but reach up to seven feet when allowed to develop flower heads with their attractive pink flowers.
Its leaves curl downwards, are egg-shaped in outline, and attach to the stalks at the broad end of the leaf. They have a slightly puckered surface and are typically thirteen inches wide by twenty-six inches long. They are classified as a cigar binder type of tobacco.
Developed by the University of Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Station from a cross between 'Havana 142' and 'Havana 38' and introduced in 1946. Our seed originated from USDA accession number PI 552435 and was sent to us by David Pendergrass from Tennessee.
Tobacco plants are very interesting, ornamental, and have many uses apart from consumption. Tobacco seeds are not classified as tobacco products. We promote the cultivation of tobacco plants, but we do not promote the use of tobacco products.
Tobacco seeds are tiny and look like dust, but each one has the potential to quickly grow into a huge tobacco plant. They need light to germinate. Sprinkle the seeds onto the surface of a moist and sterile seed starting mix. Do not cover the seeds. They also must never be allowed to dry out, so they are frequently (but gently) watered using a mist from a spray bottle. While waiting for germination, it can help to cover them with some kind of plastic sheeting to help hold moisture.
Once tiny seedlings emerge, you can pick them out one by one and move them into individual cells. Very lightly fertilize and never allow the potting soil to dry out. Within 6 weeks it'll be ready to plant in the garden. Wait until all risk of frost is over before planting outdoors.
