1000+ (1/4 gram) Golden Burley Tobacco Seeds Grown In East Arizona

Description: 1000+ (1/4 gram) Golden Burley Tobacco Seeds Grown In East Arizona- I started growing this type of tobacco a few years back, I'm trying to come up with a decent cigarette tobacco. Golden Burley when cured is a little harsh for me by itself, right now I like a blend of Burley, Turkish Bursa, and Virginia Gold. As of 9-18-23, I'm surviving completely on this tobacco. I'm still experimenting, I find that drying it out completely after curing seems to make it a bit stronger and gets rid of that 'nutty' taste. It's pretty close to the taste of Bugler or Camels, good enough for me. I won't try to give out planting advice, I'm not a very good gardener and there isn't much of a growing season up here in the mountains of East Arizona. My entire garden has to be in pots so I can move them, outside when they can be outside, and inside to a deck I have enclosed with windows. I start these seeds inside in a room that doesn't fall below 65 degrees. I use pudding cups with potting soil and just sprinkle a few seeds on top, watering with a spray bottle, since the seeds and sprouted plants are so tiny, any kind of pouring of water would probably damage them. Common LED house bulbs offer the sprouts enough light to grow, I leave the lights on them all the time. When the plants are about an inch high I transplant them into 2-gallon pots and outside they go, they like full Sun but will wilt quickly when the soil dries out. When I started to research the curing process it became dreadfully complicated. Old-timers from back East said just to hang it up in a barn(or something), but with an average humidity well below 30% here, the leaves just dry green into useless crispy critters. I reached the conclusion that 70 degrees, 70% humidity will do, and my full-bath maintains just about that, so the harvested leaves hang from the ceiling in there. My wife doesn't think much of that, so I'm working on increasing the humidity in my growing room so I can cure the leaves in there too. They're ready for me when they reach a nice brown color, I read 4-6 weeks but I don't think it's that long. My last step is to fold the leaves up a bit and shred them with a pair of scissors, being very careful not to cut off the tip of my thumb. I then store it in a coffee can, shaking it up from time to time and airing it out until it gets right for rolling. That's my procedure, it's probably not correct but it's working for me, if there were too much work involved this just wouldn't be any fun. I finally purchased a precision scale, everything I've read says that a gram of these seeds is about 10,000. I want to be 100% certain that I'm delivering as many I promise, and .1g sure doesn't look like 1000 to me, so I'll make it a solid 1/4 gram, could be as many as 2500. A person could lose his mind trying to count these things. These seeds were harvested this year and they do grow, I started sprouting them as soon as I got them out of the flower pods.
