Agrotechnics.
Sowing for seedlings is carried out in late March — early April. Before sowing, the container is filled with slightly moist soil (three parts sandy loam turf soil and one part well-rotted and sifted humus), the surface is compacted and leveled. The seeds are evenly distributed over the surface, slightly pressed into the substrate, moistened from a spray bottle, and covered with a film. The crops are placed in a bright, warm place, watered through a tray, and ventilated every day (lifting the film for 30 minutes).
Young plants are planted in open ground in mid-to-late May at a distance of 50-70 cm.
From mid-July, the harvesting and curing of tobacco begins. Tobacco is fermented before use.
