Chest Tubes After Open Heart Surgery. When a patient has a chest tube after heart surgery, the tube is inserted near the sternum (breastbone), and is intended to drain any blood that accumulates away from the surgery site.
Currently there are five major types of sorghum grown: 1) Grain sorghum with dwarf varieties that grow 2 to 5 ft tall for easier combining. 2) Forage sorghum which grows 6 to 12 ft tall, produces more dry matter tonnage than grain sorghum, is coarse stemmed and used for silage.
Grain heads are two to four feet high, and the small seeds produced attract pheasants, quail, songbirds and deer. Like corn, grain sorghum needs about 100-120 days to mature; plant it according to the same schedule. A good yield is 70 bushels or 3,920 pounds per acre.
