[Syrupmakers] Sugar Cane for Seed

[Stacey Freeman]

Billy, 
We have some Georgia red, Green, and POJ and usually make at least 1 80
gallon boiling of each.  By far, we prefer POJ as it seems to give us a much
milder tasting syrup that does not seem to sugar as quickly.
 
Take Care!

I have a question for all of the makers of Syrup from Sugar Cane.   What
Varieties makes the best Syrup?   I have some cane that I got from a family
member that I have been growing for several years that I think is a POJ type
cane.  It makes good syrup but it breaks really bad if you cut it a week or
two before grinding.  Any suggestions will be appreaciated.   I would like
to try something new.   Do any of you grow the CP 67-500?
 
Thanks to all that makes this site possible
