You should be able to get tobacco seeds online. I tried growing Virginia and burley a while ago. TIP: They seem to be sensitive to frost so don't plant out until June when you can be sure that there aint gonna be a frost IMHO.

Anyway, welcome MrNuts1985 i have subbed to your youtube channel. From what you say you seem to have the mind set right so keep at it.

Hi and welcome to the forums. Just a heads up... I bought seeds from the US and it got confiscated by customs followed by a polite but firm letter. Its a shame as I have not found any other 'kits' from the UK. Just buying seeds normally now.
