One of my buddies is thinking of planting some japanese millet for the ducks and neither of us knew when to plant.

If anyone knows or has any hints on it I would appreciate it.

Thanks

Millet takes about 60 days to mature. I have planted in August and had an excellent stand before frost. As long as you can get your 60 days before frost, you should be fine.
