I'm growing Minipop corn and as I believe it's harvested before pollination, I'm wondering whether it works to grow it not too far from ordinary sweetcorn. Can it be harvested before the tassels begin to shed their pollen in order to prevent contamination of other varieties?

The tassels don,t shed pollen they are the female part that carries the
pollen to the embryonic seeds, It's the plume on top of the plant that
has the pollen

Yes, so there is no reason you couldn't cut the pollen carrying bits
off before they mature.
