Great looking corn! What variety is that?
Gorgeous corn... and quite a contraption! Also.... beautiful pix!
I have in recent years grown concerned about GMO strains. I’ve heard that even just consuming non-GMO strains can make changes in human DNA. It has also been my understanding that it is very difficult to raise non-GMO corn since it interbreeds with neighboring plants and does not stay uncontaminated from the doctored genes. It is for those reasons I have hesitated to learn to grow corn.
I am not a purist; I do eat corn which I’m certain is GMO. But it still worries me that non-GMO is reportedly getting scarce because of the difficulty in assuring the seeds are not tainted.
Darlin and I have obtained some non-gmo seeds, but have not sought to plant them because there is a LOT of GMO corn grown around us.
It’s my understanding that corn is not the only staple affected by the people who have done amazing things to cause plants to be able to grow abundantly, but which may, as a result, have unintended consequences.
What a world!
OMG! I totally need to get one of those. I wish I had thought of that this spring!
Nice looking corn, and critter solution.
