Default Sweetcorn and the Fluffy Bits

Thanks to all who answered my post, by the way. There are far more than I
expected and I'm bound to miss someone out!

Regards,

John

I've noticed that on my sweetcorn one of the top fluffy bits (sorry about
the technical language!) has developed into, what looks like, an ear of
corn but is much smaller, a bit sad looking, with kernals missing and
mis-shapen, and some dark in colour. It, obviously, has no sheath of
leaves and looks most strange.
