I did have a lot of corn fall over from windy conditions last year. I
had to tie them up to thin bamboo supports. What a pain.

I did read a method of using a bottomless styrofoam cup. You submerge
the cup (minues the bottom disc) in the dirt, so the empty cup forms a
hole (like the cup hole on a golf green). You plant the corn in the
dirt at the bottom of the hole. When it grows significantly above the
ground level, you pull the cup out and fill the hole. Has some added
beneift over omounding since a mound can shift where as the ground
won't as long as the hole was firmly filled in.
