Great sugarcane videos! Where did you get the wide tub to catch the water from the container? Thank you for showing the details. Wishing you abundance and radiance!
Thanks for watching the the good vibes! I found them at my hardware store garden section. Menards if you have one around you. Good growing to you as well!
I live in St Louis Mo and was thinking they would be difficult to grow here. Your growing them in Nebraska so there is hope. Where would I look for pieces of sugarcane to start my cane garden?
Definitely hope, our gardening zones look pretty close, I'm 5b and St. Louis looks like its 6a. I originally bought mine off an ebay selling in the spring, now I just replant from my cane each year.
@@hutsadyk Thank you for such a quick response. Never hurts to ask... do you have enough that you may be interested in selling me a few pieces? (2 or 3)
@@billpreiss Yah I would be fine doing that, however not until the spring. If I did it now it would require cutting down plants that are getting mature but not quite there. The new plantings would be small and probably not make it through the winter even indoors.
I've noticed P and K don't really help. I go heavy on N and when I fertilize I use a N heavy liquid fertilizer like Alaska Fish Fertilizer in liquid. I use a fertilizer with P and K maybe once per season. Temps and amount of direct sunlight could have slowed growth as well
@@roscoemeyers3023 I don't weekly. Since I grow in containers they are more prone to losing nutrients as water works through them. Even then I only fertilize once every 2-3 weeks.
@@lofenoialof5320 They will not die when it gets that low in temp, but they will also not grow. If it gets to 32 expect them to die, unless you can cover them well overnight.
Hi there. I enjoy your video. When you say “over winter” does that mean you never chopped or pruned it? I am interested in starting to grow my own in a pot here in Chicago. Looking to learn. Best
correct I didn't chop them or prune them. I just brought them inside and put them under a light. We are in the same growing zones so you can do it too!
@@lofenoialof5320 yes i do eat them and cut them off as close to the soil as I can. I'll keep one untouched so I can replant from the nodes in the spring
once it got hot and they started really growing they were very thirsty and those pots would dry up in a day or two. I never saw any root rot, so I recommend doing it as well
is it black variety...its very rare to see....can u tell me dear is its skin very soft to peel off...i know because black sugarcane skin can be removed by our own mouth tooth
Later in the season they will want a lot of water. I keep those plastic reservoirs under the containers so I can make sure there is always water in them. I have never had root rot issues

@@amadeofajardo1093 I found a seller on eBay originally they were selling it from Florida I can't find the listing now maybe because of the season. Maybe easier to find in the spring
I've been using any mixture that is made for container growing then adding addition fertilizer to it that is heavy on Nitrogen and also adding worm castings

Nice video!! I've been wanting to plant in a container but wasn't sure what size to get. Looks like the bigger the better growth.
Wow what kind of variety is this sugar cane now we can grow sugar in the city of the same process nice video
I'm not sure exactly what the variety is, I just call it purple sugarcane. If you grow some I hope you have great luck!
You have a wonderful nursery 😍❤️❤️❤️

What type and ratio of Nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus so you use? I’m growing sugar cane in florida and growth slowed after three months.

When you say overwintering is it indoors or outside ? How cold does it get at winter
Overwinter indoors. Where I live it can get down to -20-30F

How long does it take to grow sugar cane?
11 momths to 8 months
Great work excellent results
This is awesome!!!

This is the purple variety as the skin is soft and I use a clever to remove it
Lovely
I have couple nodes rooting at the moment
Awesome! I hope you have a great harvest :)
@@hutsadyk thanks
Me too
I love sugar cane so much
It would be the icing on the cake for all my gardening
Hi thanks your video!
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
Really cool. Now you need a good quality sugarcane machine
😂
How much would you say it grew during the warm months?
I would get at best 2 ft of edible cane by the time it stopped growing
What is this species of sugarcane called?
Honestly I have no idea, I just call it purple :-)
@@hutsadyk ok thanks. 👍
What variety is this?
I'm not sure of it's exact name, have always just called it purple sugarcane
@@hutsadyk seems to have less leaves than other types I have seen. Which is good thing.
Thanks❤️
Does it need everyday watering?
Later in the season they will want a lot of water. I keep those plastic reservoirs under the containers so I can make sure there is always water in them. I have never had root rot issues
Nice
Nice take a look at my sugar cane video
