Hancock's Milo Grain Sorghum Seed grows approximately 38 - 42 inches tall with large, bronze colored seed heads and very good stalk quality and dependable yields under adverse conditions. For sorghum to reach its maximum growing ability it needs average temperatures of at least 80 degrees or higher for maximum yields, and 90 degrees for maximum photosynthesis.

Sorghum planted late into the season is more susceptible to insect infestation and increases the possibility of lesser yields.

Soil Prep

  • When choosing to seed a clean seedbed, remove old vegetation by using a dethatcher, power rake or tiller to kill the existing vegetation. Rake or drag the area to remove debris and dead thatch for a clean area. Ensure the soil is leveled and loosened to allow the seed to have good soil contact once spread on a clean seed bed.
    • If you have an area with heavy weed coverage, we recommend starting fresh by killing and removing the existing vegetation. If you choose to use chemicals, herbicides or fertilizers, you must check with the product’s manufacturer prior to planting new seed to ensure the proper waiting period. 
  • When overseeding an existing area, mow your lawn at the lowest setting and bag the clippings. Rake or drag any areas that have dead thatch or debris.

 

Seeding

  • Seeding Rate: .5 lb. per 1,000 sq. ft. or 15 - 20 lbs. per acre
  • Overseeding Rate: .25 lb. per 1,000 sq. ft. or 10 - 15 lbs. per acre
  • Drilling Rate: 7-10 lbs. per acre

  • Spread at the recommended rate based on total area and whether it is bare ground or pre-existing vegetation.
  • Spreader Settings: There is not any one setting that applies for all brands of spreaders. We recommend reviewing the seed settings chart that came with your spreader or contact the manufacturer directly. Ensure you are choosing a seed on the list by the manufacturer that closely resembles the seed you are choosing to plant.
    • If you have any concerns on what setting you should use, we recommend always starting with the smallest option then adjusting it to match the recommended seeding rate.

 

Fertilizer

  • We recommend fertilizing with 10-10-10 All Purpose Fertilizer. 10-10-10 All Purpose Fertilizer can be spread at a rate of 10 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. for 1 lb. of Nitrogen per 1,000 sq. ft. or 500 lbs. per acre for 50 lbs. of N per acre. The most probable cause of a declining growth or soil is poor nutrition. If you have any concerns about your soil, we recommend getting your soil tested to determine what nutrients you are low in as well as your pH. The results of the soil testing will give you the best information to amend your soil for the best grass growth.

 

Watering Schedule

  • For best results, keep the soil moist while not over-watering the area or creating puddles. 

 

Germination Time

  • 7 - 14 days; under optimal conditions

 

Mowing Requirements

  • Grain sorghum is typically harvested at time of maturity using a row crop or sickle bar headers. Harvest at about 20% moisture and harvest as little leaves and stalks as possible. this will minimize harvest loss and maintain quality.
  • Cattle grazing is recommended once the sorghum has been harvested.

Perfect size and amount for family travel
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 6), Style: SPF 50
My usual brand raised its prices, leaving me in a bind to find a cheaper alternative that works well and is suitable for our family trips. I stumbled upon this brand and decided to give it a try. The travel-sized multi-pack is priced reasonably, and I received it promptly. I’ve decided to make this brand my go-to for travel products.

WWI survivor tries to rebuild his life as a mystery writing detective, twisty, fun, interesting!
Format: Kindle
Marius Quin is a complicated man, who does not take himself too seriously. Sent off to WWI at 18, leaving behind the woman he still loves, he survived the horrors of the trenches. After the war he spent a few years in Europe trying to recover before returning to England and becoming a mystery writer. He still has some rough edges, but he is quick witted, curious and when he has the chance to team up with the love of his life, Lady Bella, to look into a murder, he jumps at the chance to spend time with her and solve the mystery. The plots in the books so far have all been very interesting and twisty, with detailed historical settings and interesting supporting characters. Add the underlying draw for Marius to be with Bella, his best friend, whom he shattered by leaving and disappearing for years instead of marrying her. Throw in his post war PTSD and his drive to do the right thing, and you have a great read in every book!

Slightly torn but invested for what's next
Format: Paperback
This is my first Benedict Brown book. I don't know what it was that it was difficult for me to "get into" this book. It almost felt dragged out in some parts instead of getting to the point. And other times it felt like the author was trying too hard, if that makes sense. Each time I picked it up, it took a bit to warm up to it then I couldn't put it down. Then again, I'd stop and have to start that process all over again and I have no idea why. It is funny in parts. Definitely a cozy mystery, none of the blood and gore. I did enjoy the twist, although it was in the back of my mind from the onset. I wouldn't say I won't read the next one, sometimes the first book in a series is not always the best....oddly I've found myself endeared to Marius and feel invested in knowing what adventure he'll face next!

Great new 1920's British Mystery Series
Format: Kindle
This is a 1920’s British mystery along the lines of Agatha Christie’s classic novels. It is the first book in the series and features a mystery writer – Marius Quin. The book begins with Quin having successfully published his first novel, but having problems meeting his publisher’s demand for a second. Depressed when he leaves his publisher’s office, he accidentally meets an old love of his, Bella, a woman he had wanted to marry ten years before but, because he was leaving to fight in WWI, he didn’t propose. It is Bella who invites him to a New Year’s Eve weekend party at Everham Hall, home of a famous film actor. During the weekend, one of their party is killed and so begins the hunt for the murderer, with Marius and Bella investigating. There are plot twists and turns until the denouement when the killer is revealed. I really like both of the main characters (Marius Quin and Bella), and I’m a fan of that time period and of country manor mysteries. I’ve enjoyed Benedict Brown's Lord Edgington novels and find this new series equally appealing.
