Millet?

Postby DeltaDawg3 » Wed Aug 13, 2003 10:02 pm

When is the time to plant it and where would be the best place to get it?

DD3, If you get it out by this weekend it should be fine, as long as we dont have an early frost. I planted up to the 15 of August last year and it did fine. Best place to plant, mud flat.

We have planted it up to the 1st of September. Brown Top matures really fast, once it puts seeds on it doesn't matter if it frost. The best time to plant would be in the middle of Aug. but if you can't get it out for another couple of weeks you should be fine. I have found that planting it too early, leads to the plants falling over and resprouting defeating the purpose of growing the seeds.
