Harvested some corn and boy, they are good and sweet but I don't think I will ever plant corns again as they are really cheap here in California, sometimes 4 for a dollar but now it is 35 cents each. The silver queen hybrid corns I bought from Park's and planted last spring were so tall that the leaves bent over to my neighbor. I swear it is more than 10 ft. Looking as we drive on the highways here, the corns do not appear to me that tall, thought they were only 5 feet tall. I can live with that but 10 ft. Forget it, I will just buy them. Beans and squash did not do good either so the 3 sisters planting of corn, beans and squash, is no more for next year. At least I have a good harvest of tomatoes and the cilantro and eggplant is on its way too.
Happy gardening to all. I read almost all the blogs but haven't much time to respond because my internet service is having a problem. I lose connection just as I am ready to submit my response and I get so tired of trying. Don't know if this blog will post.
Happy gardening to all.

Our corn is not cheap at all this year! And what has been making it to stores looks awful. I haven't had any sweet corn yet this year *pout* I'm going to plant it for next year! |

We got some of that yellow/white corn from the super market the other day. It was great. Don't know how much it cost 'cause Mr. Bayou does the shopping right now and sure does not keep to the budget. :) |
