    Truly I like to smoke one. But as I am not a smoker in general the taste left in my mouth keeps me up all night. Yuck.

      Do they still have very attractive females rolling them on their thigh? That's what the tradition was supposed to be. :heehee:

        I'll try and remember to take a picture of mine tomorrow and put up on here. Mine are all varying sizes. :)

        The ones I pricked out are picking up, killed a few off by doing it though.

        The biggest ones have been nearest the window.

        I moved mine to the greenhouse cos the radiators where drying them out too fast and there wasnt much light in the room,they have picked up in there but maybe cos its bubblewrapped it still might not be enough light:scratch: do you think i should move them to the potting shed windowshelf during the day when its warm,im getting temps of 12 to 33degrees in there? yours are huge compared to mine zig :hate-shocked:

        Mine are mostly in the cold Joolz, they are in my old bedroom, when i'm not there, mrs shuts the door & keeps the heating off, so its nice & chilly for me if I come back. Its the light that seems to be doing the trick though, they only get direct sun in the morning, its gone round by about 12.

          Right I am going to try to get a couple of pictures up of mine. They are kept in a cold plastic greenhouse and I cover them with a bit of fleece at night irrespective of threat of frost or not. Now lets see because a lot of my pictures although taken with the same camera wont always upload on here. Here goes: Said it was too large and yet I have uploaded the same pictures before ok. Will try a separate frame.

          No I keep trying and I cannot see how I can upload it. It is the same size as I have uploaded before but it just keeps saying it is too large for the server to process.

          Ziggy if you could pm me your e-mail address then pehaps I could send you the picture and perhaps you could post it on here for me. Is that an idea or not? Let me know......

          Ziggy did you receive the e-mail with the pictures attached? Hope you did. I just tried again to upload because I uploaded a picture I took after them on the macrame thread. It just doesn't make sense to me why some and not others?

          Moyra's Tobacco plants are so huge, we've had to send the picture off to a shipbuilders to be re sized.

          We hope to have it back shortly:dbgrtmb:
