Corn is one of our favorite vegetables on the homestead. Although it’s not a high yielding plant for the area it takes up, it’s well worth growing! There is nothing like a nice cob of sweet corn along with a summer BBQ. Home canned corn will be a wonderful addition to the winter menu.
To plant corn, till the ground working in composted manure.
Make rows 1 foot apart.
Drop the seeds of corn into rows 4 inches apart.
Cover 1/2 to 1 inch with soil, pat down and water.
Corn is ready to harvest when the husks are dark green and the silks are brown.
