Re: Anyone ever plant Sorghum?
I've grown broom corn which is the fodder version. I planted it like corn and it did well. Not sure that helps.

Re: Anyone ever plant Sorghum?
In africa IIRC it was dry land crop. There are apparently about 30 species of it.

Re: Anyone ever plant Sorghum?
I've actually planted several varieties of sorghum for my job annually for the last 5 years. We were growing sweet sorghum which is used either for making syrup or ethanol. Nothing too special about it, keep the bugs off of it and try to keep the diseases down.
