Put some seeds in the tray on Tuesday and then today, this happened 
I forgot to label which tray is which variety, so won't know for a bit, but pretty happy As you can see, there are quite a few seeds in each, I just scattered them around and hoped for the best!
Something so small grows into a beast of a plant :O

Since we're also doing cactus.. 2 pups in front which I cut off are Pachanoi and the one in back is a Scopulicola x Pachanoi (also cut off from main plant)
Have more Pach and also a piece of Bridgesii to be planted soon. Also got some Pereskiopsis which I will use for grafting stock once my seedlings are big enough.
Hard to get hold of a Loph here..

when I lived in Virgina I grew a couple of acres for my friend when they start to flower you snap the flower off it makes better leaves. when harvesting you cut the down and they go on a stick and stood up like corn stocks after drying for a week or so they grt hung in the tobacco bard then after a couple of freezes to take them apart and grade them according to size and leaf color.
yea i let the flowers grow out because i wanted to see what they looked like.
im going to do like another 4 plants this year, in larger containers. ill crop those ones for sure.

oh nice, i didnt even notice you got some pacs.
did you find those at a big box? i havent seen a single one since the pair of pacs i bought at home depot back in like... 2013 or when ever.
i just bought some trich macro seeds recently, going to plant those out in some coir and super fine verm....
and yea i left houston without taking a picture of that cured tobacco. im a liar sorry.
10s of thousands from what i understand. the seed pods are like salt shakers...brimming with seeds. one plant could plant several acres easily.

No big box here in Australia. Got them from a bloke on a ethnobotanical forum, mostly pups so transplanted. Going to get a small collection going and plant them up at the family farm.
Picking up some Yowie, some Peruvianus and some Cuzco next weekend!
As for the seeds, that is awesome - running out by trading seeds lol
