Planting & Care

Sow seeds directly outdoors after the last frost, when soil temperature is at least 60°F. Plant seeds 1 inch deep and 8-12 inches apart in rows spaced 24-36 inches apart. Corn is wind-pollinated, so plant in blocks of at least 4 rows for good pollination.

Keep soil evenly moist, especially during tasseling and silking. For baby corn, harvest when silks emerge and ears are young. For popcorn, allow ears to mature fully on the stalk, then harvest when kernels are hard and husks are dry. Store popcorn in an airtight container after curing.
