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. This grain sorghum flourishes in hot, dry climates. grain sorghum is more flood resistant than the traditional sorghum. 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.

Cools quite well, about 85% but works well for hot flashes
Being in perimenopause I tend to have hot flashes at the most inopportune times, especially in the middle of winter where I'm sleeping practically naked and everyone in the house is sleeping with hoodies and sweats and extra blankets. I just found out that one side is extremely cooler than the other and the first night I had it I washed it gently dried it in a very light, delicate setting on my dryer. In fact, I didn't let it dry all the way and let it hang up and the first three nights I slept with this blanket. I slept an entire 8 hours instead of the usual three because hot flashes like to do that to you. Wake you up at 2:00 in the morning or 5:00 in the morning when you have to get up for work in an hour. It's very light. It smells great. It's very soft and one side like I said is cooler than the other and you will feel so much better wearing this or sleeping with this rather. I'm

Keeps me cooler than before!!
Color: Light Gray, Size: Full / Queen (90"x90")
I have been going back and forth about buying the Rest comforter but it is so expensive and then I stumbled across this. I am very pleased, it is light and one side usually stays cool to the touch. It does warm up with body heat but usually I let it sit in front of the fan for few minutes and it’s cold again. It was made a huge difference and it good quality for what you pay.

Silky comfort
Color: Light Gray, Size: Full / Queen (90"x90")
I love this comforter. I’ve been using a blanket I ordered on another site for the last year that I loved but needed a new one because my son got bubble gum on it. I ordered this one after searching for a a couple of days. I was initially disappointed because it didn’t feel like it had the same cooling factor as my prior blanket. However, after sleeping with this blanket for the past 2 nights, I can say I’m in love. It’s still “cool”, just in a different way. I’m so excited to go lay down. Lol. It feels like a silk sandwich with light, soft comforter material on the inside. Silky and cool. Definitely recommend.
