Subject: Re: Sweetcorn Suckers


Martinsville, Ohio
I understand but I thought pbutler was wanting to learn, not just get a canned yes or no answer. The only I really learn is do it myself. That is probably the biggest value of FFA and VoTech learning, is Learning to Do, Doing to Learn.

I personally don't think it would make much difference but each has his preference. The only way pbutler or any other reader is going to learn is try it themselves.

If you don't sucker stake tomatoes, you don't get as much yield or quality but if you plant ten times too many who cares, right? I guess that is your point.

My point was to learn from the picture posted. Pulling the suckers could induce disease and insects but done at the right time theoretically can push more plant energy to the reproductive part, the pollen and ovules.

Did you get your wheat out and double crops in?

Going to have to stop your way someday maybe when I am in KR's neighborhood.

Happy Father's Day!
