Lesley Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 This is the last of our harvest of corn ready for the freezer - 10 cobs cut in half. We had about 60 corn cobs altogether from a very small plot area - well worth growing. Oo-er - I don't know why this photo is so big I'd better try and sort it out. - SuperKate's sorted it!

Guest Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 What variety was it and just how easy are they to grow? Any pests (we usually get those!)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murdo Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 We had about 60 corn cobs altogether from a very small plot area - well worth growing. How many plants did you have Lesley ? We had 10 in this year, but didin't get nearly as many as that. And unfortunately we were so busy trying to eat the courgettes that we didn't pick the corn until it had gone over. So the chooks had most of it. This didn't seem to displease them (and adds credence to the mind control hypothesis.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted September 24, 2005 Author Share Posted September 24, 2005 Hi Murdo - we grew 24 plants, 3 rows of 8. We also had a few for the chickens We've saved them for our 'other' chickens which will be arriving soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
