Environmental conditions and characteristics of sorghum growth

Sorghum Growth Environmental Conditions and Requirements

Sorghum likes high temperature and sunlight, so when planting sorghum, you must choose a place with sufficient light. This will ensure that the sorghum gets sufficient light time during its growth, which is conducive to promoting the growth and development of sorghum.

Sorghum growing temperature

The suitable temperature for sorghum growth is about 15 degrees Celsius to 20 degrees Celsius. It is not cold-resistant and is generally easily affected by frost damage in winter. The lowest temperature it can withstand is 5 degrees Celsius.

Sorghum growing humidity

Sorghum has very strict requirements on humidity and its ability to absorb water is relatively strong, so it is necessary to ensure that the soil is always moist to facilitate the growth of sorghum.

Sorghum growing soil

Sorghum prefers soil with strong water and fertilizer retention capabilities because it needs water during its growth process. Therefore, if the soil cannot retain water, the sorghum will not have enough water, affecting its growth.

Sorghum Growth Cycle and Process

Sorghum is suitable for growing in spring and summer. Its growth cycle is generally more than half a year. During the growth process, sorghum needs to be fertilized once a month or so. It is best to use compound fertilizer, which can make the sorghum grow more luxuriantly.
