Question

What kind of soil whould you plant tobacco in? Thank you, Courtney

Answer

Tobacco will grow in nearly any soil but probably the best would be something like topsoil that you can buy at at a local home and garden shop. It will have a mixture of loam, sand and clay for water and nutrient holding and proper drainage. This web site has details on growing tobacco:http://www.coffinails.com/growing.html You may also want to know about the dangers of smoking tobacco.
