I am quite new to gardening so please forgive me if I am asking a
stupid question.

I currently have some sweet corn which have now been in flower for
about two weeks and now the cobs are just starting to develop.

My question is that, if I am lucky and don't get a frost until mid
October will these cobs develop into nice sweet corn or is it just
too late in the year?

Where are you? Sounds a bit late to me......in London UK. I've grown
sweetcorn for a number of years, and they're all eaten by now.

Mine are just starting. We had the first this evening.
