Hello everybody.
(FRESH SEED AVAILIBLE now for '24 season)
Check out this video on what you can do with it!
• How to use Sorghum. Po...
I've spent years going through various grain crops & so far nothing has really beat sorghum as the one to be able to take on all the pest & weather that can get thrown at it.
This variety of white sorghum that I got hold of has proven to be super productive and very tasty & easy to use in the kitchen.
If you would like to grow this yourself get ahold of me. or you can go through PayPal.
$14 for 200 seeds of white (if you would like a bulk order let me know)
or $14 300 of Early Shallu( very pest resistant)
( I do not send seeds with a tracking number. If you want a tracking number Please add an extra $3.)

Sorghum was the original grain crop in the Midwest and Plains 100+ years ago. It was eventually replaced by higher yielding hybrid corn. The reddish brown color with high tannin content was actually bred into the sorghum to prevent large flocks of wild birds from eating all the crops. Eventually, all the commercially available sorghum became red, there was no alternative. And all of it was short so it could be harvested by machine. The red sorghum in cheap bird seed mix is only there because of the low cost. Even the wild birds won't eat it, they will eat everything else in the mix and leave the red sorghum. The higher priced bird seed mix will have white millet instead. Thank you Tfarms for saving heirloom white sorghum seeds and sharing information on how to grow it. It is perfect for the homesteader.

@SkyDavis100 9 месяцев назад
@@donradwhat I mean by “when they brought it over” is that in the 1890s they introduced sorghum to Kansas. At the time it was called Kafir Corn. The towns had Kafir Corn festivals because it did so much better than corn in our semi Arid environment. I farm and ranch on a few thousand acres. We use regenerative agriculture. You can get white sorghum as double dwarf, dwarf, and non dwarf from seed companies like syngenta and also pioneer i.e Monsanto. There are also old varieties from the 1930s like westland white that some farmers keep around. I keep Westland Red and Red Kafir around. Red Kafir is the first red sorghum brought over. There is also white Kafir that was brought over as well. My great great grandfather used to grow some of it. All of the varieties from the seed companies are hybrids and not open pollinated though. There are no GMO Sorghums grown in the U.S. they never developed them because of the backlash of GMO corn.

Now… you really sold that well 😊 I will try to sow some of the white sorghum you get in healthfood stores here (I’m in Germany) but if that doesn’t work I’ll get back to you and ask for some seed! I also think that it’s very pretty looking, just imagine it in some harvest themed bouquet or so! Interestingly (for some of the health nuts) it’s also got a good protein content (around 10%)… so I am curious for the taste now. Isn’t sorghum also what many people in Africa eat?

just grew my first experimental crop of white sorgum (Northern NSW) I bought (on-line from a health food store) raw organic whole "Jowar" -that's what it's called in India, often sold as jowar flour. Was inspired by last season's experiment growing broomcorn (also a variety of sorgum). Will make brooms soon! Has to be Australian -grown as all imported seed/ food is irradiated and chemically treated and therefore infertile. Have yet to harvest and cook. It's grown well but unfortunately, has been a prolonged wet season and looks like some rot. Sorgum is apparently the 3rd largest seed crop grown in Australia, the redder variety, for livestock feed. Very hardy and does well in our dry country. Have grown a lot of hard-to-get seed from raw, organic product in health food stores

@@hellogoodbye3129 You would have Do grow it in your area to be 100% but sorgom is grown all over the place. This variety takes about 80 to 100 days Depending on what you wanna use it for.

Barley might be, think i saw a dwarf wheat that seemed to be producing under two and a half feet. I'd probably look at dwarf barley and dwarf wheat... Possibly rice.

Thank you for this video. 👍 I'm over in Sweden and have been looking for Sorghum (human food variety) for a long time. Have about a 4 month decent growing season. Do you possibly have seed of your white variety for sale still and, would you be interested/able to ship to Sweden? Thank you in advance. 🙏 //Solani

The brown types you see were actually bred so birds wouldn't eat the seed... but they put it in bird feed!! These two I have are very good eating though.
