Ihave grown corn for the first time and am delighted I grew from packet seed straight into the ground and as they became young plants separated each one and sowed into rows I watered and watered they need constant water upkeep now they are ready for eating the tails are brownish in colour and i had about three coblets to each stalk purely organic didnt have to keep the bugs away . the trick is water everyday
