Re: Anybody growing Sugar Cane?
As a kid we'd buy sugar cane in the autumn around Halloween at the farmers' market. What we didn't eat I'd cut into lenghts with 3 or 4 joints (nodes), and bury them just under the surface of the soil. This seemed to keep them warm enough and moist. In the spring we'd dig them up and replant them in rows in the garden. When the soil became the right tempature they'd sprout along the nodes and grow into beautiful plants during the summer. In the fall we'd cut them and start over.
That's north Florida, zn 8b.
