Sow seeds indoors about six weeks before the last frost date. Leave the seeds on the surface of a soilless mix, as they require light to germinate. Maintain a temperature of 75°F (24°C) for optimum germination, which will take about 15 days. After germination, grow the seedlings out in bright light at 63°F (17°C), then gradually increase the temperature to 73°F (23°C) before hardening off and transplanting outdoors after frost.
For direct sowing, plant seeds in mid to late May in finely prepared and enriched soil. Space plants 30 to 45 cm apart in the garden and maintain regular watering, especially during dry periods.
Add a splash of colour and fragrance to your outdoor space with 'Sensation Mix' Tobacco , a classic and charming variety that will enhance your garden all season long.
