Most people know millet from bird food (seed mixtures) or from
millet sprays. But it can also be served as fresh food when it's
half-ripe. In early spring, you can sow some millet in your garden.
From about July on, there will be half-ripe millet. In some parts of
the world like Germany, millet will only become ripe in hot summers.
The photo on the right shows some half-ripe
millet. You can sow all sorts of grains as for example French
white millet, Japanese millet, red panicum or panicum millet.
