Normal sugar type very tender pericarp makes this an ideal variety for mini sweet corn. Best grown at high density, and harvested when cobs approximately 10cm in length. Produces 5-6 cobs per plant. This variety normally crops after approximately 65 days, and does not require pollination to produce cobs.
Grow your own tiny corn cobs for Chinese cooking and casseroles. Harvest delicious tiny, tasty sweet corn, cobs and all, fresh from your garden - so much tastier than the tinned variety. Baby corn are harvested before pollination just as the silk tassels begin to show.
Sowing Instructions
Sow in mid spring 4 weeks before last expected frost in your area, singly - in deep in 3in pots of compost. Germination usually takes 6-10 days at 70-75F.
Growing Instructions
Keep free of weeds and water regularly. Harvest the tiny cobs when the silks first show above the husks. What you are harvesting is the immature corn on the cob. Under ideal conditions each plant should bear 4-6 cobs. If you forget to harvest on time a normal sweet corn will be produced but you will have prevented the plant from developing more cobs throughout the season.
Crop
65 Days
