Planting

Corn seed is very easy to direct sow. For Zones 9 and 10, sow seeds in deeply irrigated soils to guarantee even and quick germination. Plant seeds every 3″, thinning later to 6″ apart.

Fertilize regularly with an organic liquid fertilizer once the seedlings have germinated and are about 4″ tall.

If transplanting out, plant in the garden when it is 6-7″ tall. Space at least 6″ apart. Plant in full sun.

Harvest sweet corn when the end kernels of the ear feel developed. Approximately 21 - 25 days after half silk. Sample sweet corn to ensure quality.
