Introduction
Hey there from Dream KC Smoke Shop—let me introduce Ripkitty Sorghum Bicolor (Milo Short) Seeds. Sorghum Bicolor milo is a warm-season crop and an easy to grow cover crop that’s built for soils and seasons that push the limits. It thrives where summers are hot and rainfall is moderate, and it’s comfortable in tropical and subtropical climates while still workable in warmer temperate zones. For the best results, aim for a growing season temperature of about 75 to 95°F (24 to 35°C). This variety prefers well-drained soils with good fertility and can handle a variety of soil types, including sandy soils and loams, though it performs best in soils with a pH range of 6.0 to 7.5. When you’re ready to plant, sow sorghum milo seeds in rows with about 6 to 12 inches (15 to 30 cm) between plants and keep rows roughly 30 to 36 inches (76 to 91 cm) apart. It’s typically grown in USDA Hardiness Zones 5 to 9, but folks outside those zones give it a try thanks to its drought-tolerant nature.
