Postmortem: Corn

The corn experiment was .... an educational experiment.  Lessons learned:
  • Plant more corn
  • Divide the batch into 3 or so equal parts and plant each part at 2 week durations
  • Make sure that the plants are grouped up in a windy area so that each one of the female tassels gets pollinated
  • Clean the corn husks over the compost bin in case the husk is full of ants
  • Watch the corn closely for worms
  • If more than one ear per node, don't try to snap it off



And, did I mention:  Plant More Corn!
