Seed is coated with Ash. They Crow then in green houses now. Each family that farms it has a green house. They then plant the babies in the field.
Do they plant only Perique or do they plant other varieties of tobacco too.

Only perique.

The ash trick hasn’t been used for seed in a while by most. They send the seed off to have it pelletized.

I can pretty well assure you that as long as Perique is grown in rich Mississippi delta dirt (i.e. from New Orleans to Memphis) it would grow a quality Perique that you couldn’t tell the difference between.
