ago. And I put in Corn yesterday. Because it got over two feet tall in
my
house. under grow lights.

But nothing else yet.


Corn under grow lights, why bother?


And the soil temp needed to be 70. And i planned on June 5 to put the in.
but its too wet., And the pack said best seeded under lights.


Have you still got the packet? Variety? Source? What kind of
corn needs 70 degree soil?

all I've seen says 'as early as ground can be worked' -- or 'after all
danger of frost is past'.

for sale during mid June.



Exactly. Same here , they still have lettuce, but mines already done.


Same in NY-- Crazy weather or too much stock? We've gone from cold
& rainy to 'too hot to plant' - about a week at a time since early
May.
