I've grown it several years, seed it the 2nd or 3 week of July, it comes up quickly and goes to seed before the first frost. I put it on marginal to heavy ground and let it go to seed. I let my bees use it to make late honey, then leave the honey on the hives so they will have it for their winter feed. It makes real dark and nasty honey.

No elevator around here wants to mess with the small amount I would have to sell.
