Mennonite Sorghum
All seeds are grown 100% naturally.
Mennonite Sorghum (syrup & grain)
(Sorghum bicolor)
100 seeds
SKU: MSM-1-100
Grown for syrup as well as grain, depending on when you harvest. In a single season it is possible to harvest grain, cut the stalks, and allow it to grow back for a syrup harvest. Syrup can be made from the first stalks after harvesting grain, but the sugar content will be lower.
Sorghum makes a remarkable flour and is extremely easy to harvest, winnow, and grind. As a matter of fact, most store bought flour is made from a mix of ground sorghum and wheat.
Direct sow in garden or field after last frost. Sorghum likes it warm, so don't get in a hurry. Wait until the soil temperature is 70 degrees and not excessively wet.
Thinly broadcast seeds across rows, spacing seeds about 6 inches apart.
