I have grown tobacco for over fifty years and each year the plants seem to do better.
Right now we grow about 9 different varieties, most are used in native ceremonies, because we grow organically.
You are allowed by law to grow 13.5 kilos or close to thirty pounds, this is dry weight and for personal use only, you can not sell it.
All tobacco is cured at least 1 year for cigarettes, and at least 4 years for a good cigar.
It must be hung up in an airy barn and fires burned (flue cured) or may be sun cured. If the plant is for smoking, you must cut off all seed heads as they form on the top and between the stem and large shade leaf.
If the plant is for seed, let it do its thing, you will get millions of seeds off each plant. When we harvest for smoke, we split the thick fleshy stock down the center and let it fall and stay in the field over night.
We then pick up and tie into "hands" to hang. If the tobacco is still green, it means there is still chlorophyl in it and must be sweated and or dried further.
Seed is easy to get, it is available all over the net.

I grow from seed every year starting in January.

im also interested in growing my own tobacco, does anyone know a good place to purchase seeds?

well i live in indiana and u can grow for personal use but if u are going to sell it you hav to hav what they call a tabbaco base and report how much you plan on growing i hav been to a tobacco auction in ky and its crazy but it very very hard work if you know what you are doing good lucki grow a couple of stocks every year and use it and let it sit in a gallon of water for 24 hours the boil it for about 3 or 4 minutes does a get job keeping those nasty pest off ur plants good luck

im intending on growing it for personal use so i shouldnt have any of those problems, it still depends on weather i can find a decent place to purchase seeds, grow information would also be helpful

and does anyone have any idea of the prise range regarding tobacco seeds?

Not sure if this helps, but I am also interested in growing tobacco to roll blunts:
