Popular Post El Presidente Posted April 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 11, 2021 I love my Monday morning emails Let me toss this one straight to you guys I love reading the forum and hope you can help. I have been involved in herbal hydroponics for some time. Covid provided the time to really induge in my hobby! Anyway, I want to have a try at growing cigar tobacco and have sourced the corect seed. I know this question may come across as naive but how many petit coronas would I get from one average sized plant? is there any way to do the math? 1 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezztone Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 I’m pretty certain I could guess what type of herb that inspired the question. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellot00tr Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 From the world he comes from, they can calculate approximate yield per plant based on grow conditions-indoor/outdoor, lighting, soil, temp, etc. They won’t know exact yield prior to first harvest, but there is a measurable baseline based on previous recorded conditions and a measurable “standard.” He would have been better reaching out to tobacco farmers though. Not sure many people here are farming tobacco. Mostly end users. It’s like asking a car forum what the production capacity of vehicles coming from a Ford assembly line is based on raw material numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginseng Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Well, if he's truly interested in farming tobacco, Virginia's co-op extension is probably a good resource. After all, tobacco was a historically significant crop in the state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post NSXCIGAR Posted April 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2021 I don't know why it never occurred to me to grow some Behike in my backyard. After that, I'm making my own Scotch in the bathtub. I might get hungry after that so I'm thinking of raising a Wagyu cow in the side yard and some caviar in the aquarium. 4 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grow an average size plant, roll petit coronas and count how many you made. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puros Y Vino Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Do a search on "Knollenberg's Cigar Factory Tables". It breaks out only the wrappers and binders though. Filler would require more leaf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edicion Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Would be funny if ten years from now we are buying cigars from this guy and his hydroponic plantation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chas.Alpha Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 The equation is simple: M/P/2>/3L2. Thus rendering (2) petit Coronas per size of plant equal to the distance between them. 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La_Tigre Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Can’t believe y’all haven’t gotten the answer, yet. - 420. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirVantes Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 First ask yourself if you have the right terroir. Are you growing in Fijian water? If so, the yield will be low but each cigar can be sold for $1 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSXCIGAR Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I wonder if anyone has actually tried to grow tobacco hydroponically. I don't think it's even possible to grow indoors. Those plants have some serious roots and get pretty tall. Growing wrapper with muslin would certainly be interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
