  • Species and varieties: Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) is a species of millet that is widely grown for its grain. It has several varieties, including 'Golden German', 'White Wonder', and 'Red Proso'. Each variety may have different characteristics in terms of grain color, size, and growth habits.
  • Hybrid or heirloom: Foxtail millet seeds can be both hybrid and heirloom. Heirloom varieties are traditional and have been passed down through generations, while hybrid varieties are bred for specific traits such as higher yield or disease resistance.

  • Fertilization needs: Foxtail millet benefits from a balanced fertilizer application. Before planting, incorporate a general-purpose fertilizer into the soil. During the growing season, a side-dressing of nitrogen fertilizer can promote healthy growth and increase yield. Organic matter such as compost can also be added to improve soil fertility.
