What you need to know to Plant & Grow
For best growth, plant in a sunny, wind-sheltered site with well-drained soil and a pH of 5.5 to 6.5. Sow seeds only after all danger of frost is past and the soil has warmed to at least 18°C.
Planting: To ensure proper pollination, plant at least 3 to 4 rows. When planting in rows, sow seeds 10-15 cm apart, then thin to 30 cm apart. Rows should be spaced 55-75 cm apart. Germination occurs in approximately 10 days.
Care: Work a good vegetable fertilizer into the soil at planting. Keep weeds under control and irrigate frequently throughout the season. Sufficient water is particularly important at flowering and when the cobs begin to fill. Cobs are ready for harvesting when the silks turn dark brown. To check for maturity, gently peel back a section of the husk and press your thumbnail into a kernel. If the liquid is a milky colour, the corn is ready.
