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.

Very happy
I recently purchased a set of floating shelves, and I couldn't be happier with my decision! From the moment I opened the box, I was impressed by the quality of the materials. The shelves are sturdy and well-crafted, giving me confidence that they will hold my books and decorative items without any issues. Installation was a breeze! The package came with clear instructions and all the necessary hardware, making the process quick and hassle-free. I was able to mount them in no time, and I appreciated how everything lined up perfectly. As for the aesthetics, these shelves are a game changer for my space! They add a modern touch to my room and provide a stylish way to display my favorite pieces. The sleek design complements my décor beautifully, and I've received so many compliments from friends and family. Overall, these floating shelves exceeded my expectations in every way. They are not only functional but also enhance the look of my home. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a stylish and easy-to-install shelving solution!

Shelf is sturdy and made of good material, easy to assemble , LED strip could be better
Size: 24 x 6, Color: Black-rgb, Size: 24 x 6, Color: Black-rgb
The shelf is built of solid material and it is very easy to assemble and also install. The LED strip is okay, nothing special and if you don't flick the actual switch on/off of the battery pack your batteries will drain EXTREMELY FAST; the RGB will start flashing making it seem unusable/defective because the controller won't function properly either when in reality it's just dead batteries. I'd probably buy other LED strips that are of higher quality, rechargable and have more features if I were to purchase these again in the future. Pleased with the purchase overall though.

wasting your money
Size: 35 x 7, Color: White-rgb
I’m very disappointed with this purchase. The shelves have a questionable finish - honestly, you can get something cheaper and much better quality at IKEA. But the biggest issue is the lighting. None of the lights work. I put in brand-new batteries and absolutely nothing happens. I wouldn’t recommend wasting your money on this product.

Lights stop working after a few usage
Size: 31 x 7, Color: Black-rgb
I had these shelves for a few months now. The shelves are great and are very easy to install. I also like that they offer different sizing, so depending what you are storing on them. They can fit a lot of items and are sturdy so you don’t have to worry about it falling. The lights were amazing at first and the main reason why I bought this product, but after a few times using them they stopped working completely and no longer connect.
