How many pound of bacco will I get/harvest from each plant ?
On Marijuana, thank you but I am not interested. 
To me it is just a WEED.  |
You could get a pound or two of quality leaf from 4 plants. Keep it well fed with N and K until you see the bloom emerge, break it out before flowers open. Then continue to water the plants and keep breaking all the suckers out for the next 4 or 5 weeks. The leaves will begin to get larger and larger in the weeks following topping. The plants will begin to get a golden yellow look at about 3 to 4 weeks, this means that the plants are getting ripe. At this point the plants can be cut at the base and hung upside down in a open shed type structure. In a month or so it will cure. After curing, (no fat leaf stems near the stalk) the leaves can be stripped from the stalk on damp days when the leaves are in "case" meaning that the cured plants can be handled without damaging the leaves.
