Default Corn has tassles but silks slow to appear

Hi All,

I am somewhat worried if I will get any corn this year. Most of the plants
have the tassles up and they are dispensing pollen but there are very few silks
out. I can see which cornstalks will have silks by the swollen stems but I
worry that by the time the silk arrives there will be no pollen left. Hand
pollenating is such a pain . . . . Is there any other solution or is this
condition normal?

Thanks
Anne
