That’s looking really nice. Meanwhile, we’re lucky to have corn “ankle high by the Fourth of July”.
With the new greenhouse, next year I’ll try starting some for transplanting, and see what happens.
We use three varieties, all relatively early, and open pollinated: Painted Hill; Golden Cross Bantam; Mandan Sweet (AKA Mandan Red Flour). The two Indian types are also cold tolerant. While I still had seed from JDB, I also planted Serendipity.
WOWZER! Thanks for the pictures. It’s looking great. Hubby’s corn is delicious, but he can’t remember what it is. He just goes to the feed store and asks them what’s the best tasting corn seed you have?
Is Perfection the one you always plant, because for some reason I thought that the one’s you have sprouted before started with an R?
