Sugar cane should be planted in specific patterns and distances, and separated by rows. Plant seeds directly in the garden. Plant your seeds 2 weeks after last frost date and when soil has warmed up.

Plant the seeds in blocks of at least 3 rows in each direction as sugar cane is pollinated by the wind. Planting in blocks also protects stalks from damage from high winds. Plants can grow 3 to 8 ft tall. Warning: Do not plant in cold wet soil or you may experience poor germination! Soil Requirements:Requires well loose rich soil in a well-drained location in the garden. Apply much and grass clippings, or straw around base of plant.
