Curing

Curing

At this stage, the tobacco is curing beautifully in the barn, slowly drying and turning green to brown. This is a slow process that takes around 60 days to complete. This is a critical process; too much humidity and the leaves will get moldy and the stems will rot. Not enough humidity and the leaves will dry too quickly and lock in the chlorophyll and result is a blotchy green and grey leaf. This particular leaf is from our second priming. The veins and stem are the last to dry and this leaf should be fully cured in a few more weeks.
