RE: Pictures From AROUND THE HOMESTEAD - WINTER 2018

One guy told me that it was original sugar cane as real sugar cane will produce seed heads. Commercial sugar cane will not. Someone else told me it was actually a larger variety of sorghum. So who knows who is right. I just tend to call it cane sugar and sometimes will call it sorghum. It's SWEET either way! Seeds are available on our website.

Sort:  

So it is the stuff she gave you, just the identification may be changing over time. That's an answer and that's all I wanted, there's no hidden agenda or anything. I guess if it's sorghum its syrup, if it's cane it's molasses.

That's right sugar cane is reproduced through cloning, not seed. Molasses comes from cane, syrup from sorghum.
