Silk Leaf Virginia Tobacco Seeds (Nicotiana tabacum)
General Description:
Silk Leaf Virginia is a high-quality flue-cured tobacco variety, prized for its smooth, sweet flavor and silky, bright leaves. Originating from the traditional Virginia tobacco-growing regions, this variety is known for its mild taste and excellent burning properties, making it a staple in premium cigarette blends.
Plant Characteristics:
Silk Leaf Virginia grows up to 5–6 feet (1.5–1.8 meters) tall with long, narrow, and smooth leaves that can reach 20–24 inches (50–60 cm) in length. The leaves are light green during growth and cure to a bright golden-yellow hue with a silky texture. The plant produces delicate pink flowers in late summer and thrives in warm, sunny climates.
Taste and Benefits:
This variety offers a mild, smooth, and naturally sweet flavor with a light, pleasant aroma. Its high sugar content and low nicotine levels make it ideal for blending in premium cigarettes and pipe tobacco. The clean, sweet smoke provides a satisfying experience for both casual and seasoned smokers.
Cultivation Recommendations:
Sow seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost. Lightly press seeds onto the soil surface, as they require light for germination. Maintain a temperature of 75°F (24°C) with consistent moisture. Germination occurs within 7–14 days. Transplant outdoors after the last frost, spacing plants 2–3 feet apart. Silk Leaf Virginia thrives in full sun and well-drained, fertile soil. Regular watering and occasional fertilization promote healthy growth. Harvest leaves as they mature from the bottom up, and flue-cure them in a controlled, heated environment to develop their smooth, sweet flavor.
Uses and Benefits:
Silk Leaf Virginia is ideal for crafting premium cigarettes and pipe tobacco blends. Its sweet, mild flavor and silky leaves make it a versatile choice for blending or enjoying on its own.
Packaging:
Each packet contains premium-quality Silk Leaf Virginia tobacco seeds, carefully selected for high germination and smooth flavor.
Shipping Information:
Orders are processed within 1–2 days and shipped worldwide, including within India. Delivery typically takes 1–2 weeks.
