Corn Diary!
Follow the progress of our delicious sweet corn as it grows and gets closer to being ready to pick and eat! Updates will happen bi-weekly.
Day 1 We have planted the first 4 varieties of sweet corn. We try to plant many varieties of corn to ensure that regardless of weather conditions and other factors we will have a variety that will survive and taste great! |
Day 14 The corn broke through the surface of the ground about 3 days ago and already has a number of leaves. From this point on it will grow pretty rapidly. Most of the varieties that we plant take around 59-77 days to mature. |
Day 28 Our corn is growing fast! It is nearly a foot tall now and has started to develope larger and more characteristically corn shaped leaves. Patience is definitely a virtue when you are a farmer! |
Day 42 Our corn is now about 18 inches tall, about the same height as Roxy! Still a lot more growing to do though, it hasn't started to grow any cobs or tassles yet. |
Day 56 The corn is now about 5 feet tall and has both tassles and cobs on it! The cobs are very small still and would not taste very good if you ate it right now. |
Day 68 Our corn is finally ready! The cobs are now fully formed and ready for picking! |
