I planted this Silver Queen April 16 no rain for 10 days.I used my 172 runner planter with Richmond Hopper this year for the 1st time and it did great.
I used seed plat # 3042-A.Looks like my Cole planter lost its job.

Won't be long before the water's boiling and the butter and salt are out!! Yum!! Lookin' good!!!

That is a good stand of corn there Johnny!

Terrific, looks great and soon enough the water will be boiling and butter will be melting!

How much sweet corn did you plant?

It's funny how people don't believe me when I tell them to get the water boiling before you pick the corn. Their loss. Corn starts converting sugar to starch as soon as it's picked. You have a beautiful stand of corn that is going to be tasty.

I've taken my share of harassment, for getting the water boiling,before I pick the corn. A friend brought a camp stove, and a pan, and set it up in the garden. After the water was boiling, he bent a cornstalk over, and cooked the corn, before it was picked. (no improvement, that I could detect) He still thought I was crazy, until he heard it, on a garden program, on television.
I won't eat my own corn, if its taken to a family party, because its stale. Ed
