Baby sweetcorn..... not really

[tommy the cat]

Been looking at my baby sweetcorn for ages not understanding why there was not in them??? The fact is there was but they were very far down into the plant...
I've not grown corn successfully before so it was all new to me.

There you are!

Bloody nora these are meant to be baby corn!! Hannas boobs are for scale!!

We had some smaller ones but I think I should have looked into when the things are ready for harvesting.
I'm getting some of the beds ready to grow wizard beans as green manure.

Finally getting round to sorting out the seed.

Seed sorted for next year

THose corn cobs look under-ripe, you need to wait until the silk just starts to shrivel and turn brown.

You mean corn "ears?" The cob is the inedible bit in the middle that's left after you cut of the kernels.

Not yet - they should be ready this month though. If they are crowded you should be thinning for sure.
