We offer you a truly impressive collection of tobacco seeds, carefully chosen with the smoker in mind.
Don’t throw away your money on costly, adulterated commercial tobacco. Grow your own.
Growing your own tobacco from seed may seem a bit extreme, but let’s face it, the price of tobacco is never going down, is it?
How long can you go on paying for tobacco that can just as easily be produced at home for free?
Growing your own is not against the law, no matter where you live. And with free, easy to follow, step by step instructions, all you need to do is provide the garden!
“And if it don’t taste quite the ones you buy in the stores, remember you didn’t use the chemicals. they did”. However, that’s not to say that smoking your home grown tobacco, even if it’s organically grown tobacco, is any better for you than store bought tobacco.
Tobacco you buy contain chemicals; that make it burn quicker, that make it taste better, that gives you quicker “hit” and preservatives as an added extra treat.
At the Tobacco Seed Company, we don’t sell any type of tobacco seed. We search out and find the best varieties for smokers and we find the most reputable tobacco farmers to source us.
Our selection of seeds is the product of years of research and experience into identifying and acquiring the most popular types of tobacco most favored by today’s smokers.
All seeds are guaranteed to be 100% virus free and have been certified by US and UK plant health inspectorates.
None of our tobacco seeds are Genetically Modified.
We believe our prices to be among the cheapest around, though don’t take our word for it, see for yourselves.
You can buy our seeds in quantities of 100, 200 and 500 seeds. These are priced at $3.95, $4.95 and $7.95 USD respectively.
Postage & packing is only $2.50 per order. This is a world-wide flat rate, you pay just $2.50 regardless of where you live.
We undertake to get your seeds posted within 24 hours of receiving your order.
Your payment is processed through PayPal, so we never see or touch your personal credit card details. If you have any problems you can’t resolve through us, which is highly unlikely (as we hate unhappy customers), PayPal will happily come to your rescue and offer you a refund on your purchase. Safe and simple.
We do not sell tobacco or tobacco leaves, we only sell their seeds.
We supply tobacco seeds to adults who want to grow and produce their own tobacco as an alternative to buying from shops.
We don’t encourage or support the large scale production of tobacco for commercial gain. For us, it is about the freedom of the individual.
We don’t like to give false hopes. Smoking tobacco, even home grown tobacco, is as harmful to your health as any other store bought tobacco. You know this, or at least you should do, if you’re considering growing your own tobacco to smoke.
We ask you be careful when selecting your seed varieties, as many of heirloom varieties are very potent in tar and nicotine.
We do not accept responsibility for any claims arising from the purchase of our seeds whatsoever, beyond the replacement of seeds which fail to germinate or which are not safety delivered.
Unfortunately, regulations regarding growing tobacco, differ greatly from country to country. For this reason we advise you as a matter of necessity to make enquiries about the regulations to which you are subject.
We ask that you abide by the appropriate regulations of your country.
