King City, Mo | Thought some might like to see an update on the last planting of sweet corn.
Couple screw ups on my part. I went to adjust the population and we'll....planter was on the LOW side not the HIGH side......
Need to make a set of booms for the ranger like I had designed and made for my former employer as using the wand to spray a Liberty burn down and dual I missed some spots. Prob didn't help as I was in a rush as we had an event that evening we did 60+ bags of kettle corn at and 128 or so sno cones at.
Maybe I should of worked the ground as it was muddy when we were driving the ranger in to pick the first planting. A couple farmers who came to pickup corn at the house said it's a good problem when your tracking mud on your boots in late July.
Had some pretty dry spells since this planting.
So will she make it before a frost???
Corn is Ambrosia is 68-72 day maturity.....
---------------
Has anyone tried any outside the box to get some ultra early sweet corn going?
Saw these row coverings and my mind started to wonder what could a guy do to get 1/3 or 1/4th an acre or so planted in march and up in early April.....
