Traditionally used in sacred rituals and as an offering of gratitude, this variety holds spiritual importance. It was cultivated in the fertile valleys of the Mohawk River, where it thrived in diverse conditions and became a symbol of strength and community connection.

Characteristics of Shag Mohawk Tobacco:

Plant Structure: A hardy, medium-height plant reaching up to 1.2 meters. It features thick stems and broad, slightly textured leaves that are densely packed for maximum yield.

1. Seed Germination: Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost. Press seeds lightly onto the soil surface without covering to allow light exposure for germination.
2. Soil Requirements: Plant in fertile, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.0). Incorporate compost or organic matter to enhance growth.
3. Sunlight and Watering: Provide full sunlight for vigorous growth. Maintain moderate watering to keep the soil consistently moist but avoid overwatering.
4. Harvesting and Curing: Harvest leaves as they mature, starting with the lower leaves. Cure in a shaded, well-ventilated area to develop the rich aroma and bold flavor unique to Shag Mohawk.
