The same could be said of any planting. You building a curing shed and putting in a process to make cigarettes as well?
A nieghbor and I planted some tobacco this year just to try it out. I bought 600 tobacco seeds for $3 shipped to my house from ebay. I planted some starts on my property and they died shortly after. He planted some seed starts on his land in a garden that's had manure tilled in and now those plants are 4' high. It's pretty incredible to see the difference between the two. If you're going to try growing some tobacco, make sure you got your soil right first.
Something is amiss.
