Corn, Once The Garden Darling. One of the most popular crops of past backyard gardens, corn has fallen out of favor recently. Large, cheap to buy at the grocery store, and a bit tricky during pollination time as you need several plants to ensure healthy ears. Despite all that, a HIGHLY rewarding crop to grow in this day, during these times.

A poor transplanter, corn is usually direct seeded, even here in Canada. However, with a finite warm growing period, if you want corn early, you gotta seed corn early. As a warm-weather plant, it will NOT germinate in cold or even cool soils. Bit of a pickle eh?  Well, let's get these guys seeded early like a typical seed in typical seeding trays.....and then see where we get to!
