Wow your sweet corn very tall. The one I currently growing baru sampai my peha already start to have tassle and ear don't understand why. Last year also like that just over 1 metre tall. Sweet corn is a very greedy feeder and thirsty plant. They need all of this to produce good cobs. LOL. Sleeping pill for the monkey. great idea but the one that been coming to my parents house don't eat the fruit they just break the plant.

You can polinate the corn by shaking the stalk and let the little brown thingies fall on the silk (do this preferrably in the morning). I let the stalks be there as trellis for my beans at the moment. Later if they are not in use anymore i'll bury the stalks- i read that they are good as fertilizer. Next round i will plant my corns in different bed, not in the same bed as this will bring the soil into bad condition. Speak like an expert but all info are from my previous readings, haha.miruku https://www.blogger.com/profile/01786900237495687254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3751250452858099414.post-49106878228354652502011-02-25T14:00:40.084+08:002011-02-25T14:00:40.084+08:00Wah you harvested your sweet corns already!

Never mind its the first harvest, next time you will do better since you got the experience. So after harvesting them, do you pull the plant and start planting new one? The chow mein looks so delicious!p3chandanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11103679390426867817noreply@blogger.com
