OUR TOBACCO TROLLIES
CAN CARRY SUBSTANTIAL LEAF WEIGHTS AND ARE DESIGNED FOR A 6 DAY CURE.
All our trollies are standardised to give you the Zimbabwe tobacco handbook recommendations of 80cm tier spacing and 23 cm clip spacing which when filled with 50 leaves per clip on strips will give you 200 to 225kgs per trolley depending on your leaf weight. Our tunnels are designed for up to a 6 day cure plus one day in the Sunday Holding Bay however when your colouring time comes down to 36 hours you will require 5 days in the tunnel and an average of half a day in the Sunday Holding Bay when curing strips. We start with 90 leaves a clip on primings and reduce by 5 leaves per clip per reap as you get higher up the plant and levelling off on 50 leaves per clip on strips. Our tunnels are supplied with enough trollies to give you 5.5 days in the tunnel, 1 day in the Sunday holding bay and 1 day in the grading shed to stick bulk on the trollies (where misting systems are used).
