The Burley-21 variety tobacco plant...most versatile tobacco and easiest to grow.

Tnx, Jacob.

Is burley-21 the "universal" burley that pipe tobacco blenders use? Or are there other burleys?

Sorry Bruck was away for the weekend. I believe fired Dark Kentucky Burley, and White Burely are of the main Burly being used in blending besides the B.21. There are lots and lots of other Burley varieties, but most commercial growers do the B.21 due to the high yield with less effort. Thanks for asking.

Jacob, you really know a lot about Burley plants. Are you an agronomist or horticulturist? Thanks for the information. I'm thinking about trying to grow some tobacco next year.
