Im looking for the largest corn I can get. Im really not into the
sweet
corn hybrids and prefer the maize type eating corn. In particular
corn
with largest kernal size. I would love to get my hands on peru gian
corn that has kernals 15mm wide!
been looking everywhere for seeds, any advice or seeds welcome.

Interesting. Let us know if you find where to get hold of it.
I'm looking for a deep-rooted dry climate corn to
do some selective breeding with since water is
becoming so scarce.
So far Navaho Blue Corn seems to be amongst
the hardiest & most deeply rooted - now I need
to find a local source for the authentic genetics.
