Watching this video brings back childhood memories in South Carolina . My grandmother took us to visit a relative who grew sugar cane. I loved chewing on the raw cane. Yes, after the juice was squeezed out, it was boiled down in a large black cistern. That fire was hot and had to be constantly fed with wood. The finished product was used on pancakes just like syrup.

next year put some potash on the sugar cane plants. if you leave the sugar cane in the patch for a while after harvesting until it starts to ferment, you will get some good liquor, not as strong as rum bur delicious.

I am in zone 6b and I just mulched my chayote plant with two feet of leaves and cover with bubble wrap I am going to add another foot of leaves on top of that. This is my first year and I got 60 cho chos.

I planted black sugar cane this year - it’s gorgeous but from what I understand, not quite as sweet as traditional sugar cane. I’m a recovering ornamental gardener turned permaculturist, but I still love when the garden is pleasing to the eye. Thank you for the info!

That sugarcane patch was deceptive, I can’t believe there were so many in there! 😅
