Growing tips

Grow separately from grain or popcorn maize, otherwise it may become hard or mealy due to fertilization. Corn is a wind pollinator! You can tell when it is the right time to harvest by the coloration of the stigma: as soon as it has turned brown-red, dried out and the corn kernels have reached their final size, you can start harvesting. Inside the corn cob, the kernels should still be soft and show the color typical of the respective variety. This stage is known as milk maturity. (From samenfest.de)
