Pat, I've grown corn by direct ground seeding, in squares
or rectangles to help it pollinate, at a location where it
won't shade the other plants. My parents, who live near you,
have had great sweet corn for many years. It is a heavy feeder.
They liked the Golden Cross Bantam & Silver Queen varieties.


I wish we had room for it. But there's just no way.

Fortunately, we can buy good local corn in season.

I agree.... It would take much more space than I have.....

There is a guy a few miles from me that plants aprox 5 acres of Sweet
evey year. (with his tractor/planter) Then he lets his grandkids do
all the harvisting, and selling and keep the money.. it has been
going for a buck a dozen and is usually sold out with-in three days...


It is a good by-color (not sure what kind) and is the sweetest I have
ever tasted....

I usually buy about 20-doz and put a bunch in the freezer...
