When did you plant and how tall is your corn?

I planted the Deck Corn seed inside and under the grown lamp the first week of March. They are 4+ feet tall which is as tall as they get (some are smaller as they were planted later). They do make regular size corn ears, usually two per plant. I have 13. If these produce corn, I’ll plant more of them next year. This year is basically a test container garden to see what works and what doesn’t in a container.

My parents had a large garden including corn and I didn’t see the corn plant life cycle - instead, I was usually sitting in a tree with plums/peaches/figs from the garden, reading a book.
