I've got an online pal in Maine who's been trying for a few years and cant grow it. He's got hotter summers than I have , but not sure how it compares to England.

Cheers Pietka, I had forgotten that I was thinking of growing some baccy as a trial run. When I looked into it last year there were quite a few people who grew is successfully in the UK. The Curing is a bit more involved than i originally thought, but still perfectly doable.
