DH is in love with the idea of growing corn.

Yep! Big seeds -- though usually impregnated with Thiram, so your DS won't
be able to help plant them :-( Corn is pretty easy otherwise; it likes a bit
of nutrition (I chucked some blood & bone around), but not as much water as
other vegies. Mulch it to keep the weeds down and underplant it with
cucumbers/squash/pumpkins/watermelons. I've spotted the first pumpkin!
