I've been looking into growing Giant Miscanthus. It seems like there's lots out there saying it's the next best thing. I've seen lots of articles by researchers and people trying to sell things, but very little from actual growers. Is anybody here growing it? What's your experience? I'm particularly worried about how to find buyers and wonder if I'd need to buy a pelletizer and make my own market.
Hype:
Low fertilizer need
15+ year planting cycle
15-20 tons per acre
Drought tolerant
Good in poor soil
8000btu/lb
What say you?
Thanks!
