Sugarcane generally ripens around 5438+ 10 in June, and can be eaten in March and April of the following year. In fact, sugarcane, like many sweet fruits, is sown in spring and harvested in late autumn. The closer to winter, the sweeter the taste. There is a saying that "autumn sugarcane competes with people". The best sugarcane is picked in the sugarcane fields in late autumn. But now greenhouse planting technology is very developed, which can control the temperature and humidity of plant growth, so you can eat fresh sugarcane all year round.

When can't sugar cane be eaten?

You can't eat sugar cane in spring. Because most sugar cane ripens in autumn, the sugar cane we eat now is stored for a winter before going on the market. Therefore, some sugarcane will inevitably deteriorate, and some fluffy white objects will appear on the surface of the deteriorated sugarcane, and there will be red ribbon-shaped things between nodes. If you accidentally eat it, moldy sugarcane will directly lead to human poisoning. Experts say moldy sugarcane is very toxic. Generally speaking, after eating this kind of sugarcane for 2-8 hours, people will have vomiting, dizziness, headache and visual impairment, and then their limbs will be stiff, which may even lead to coma and death. Therefore, you must choose carefully when buying.
