Sun Grown Tobacco (en palo and strung)
Central and Oriental Provinces

Sowing

The cultivation of tobacco requires a careful work and it needs to be assisted in the moment that it requires it, for what one can say that tobacco doesn't wait. When it is planted early, with watering or not, we are going toward a crop of high quality and yield. It is convenient to plant early in the slight lands, in dry years and in the unirrigated areas. In strong or loamy soils, with watering, one can plant later.

Planting time

The first planting activities of tobacco in the unirrigated lands should begin in the second fortnight of October and in the lands with watering in the first fortnight of November and it will continue in that way until December 31.

Planting distance

The planting distance, for all the varieties cultivated in the sun can be of 84 or 90 cm (33 or 36 inches) between furrows and 30 cm (12 inches) between plants.
