Product Information

Bodacious Hybrid Sweet Corn is a sugar enhanced (Se) yellow sweet corn.

This variety of sweet corn is bred to produce large, delicious ears that have an increased sugar content for an added pop of sweetness.

It's prized for its tender, creamy kernels. Bodacious Hybrid is renowned for its sweet and delicious flavor, making it an ideal addition to any meal.

Bred to be much sweeter than traditional sweet corn, it retains that sweetness for 3 to 5 days after picking from the 7' tall stalks. And unlike super sweet varieties, Bodacious Sweet Corn can be planted right next to other sweet corns!

Suggestions

For better ear fill, plant a number of short rows together instead of a single long row. This helps ensure pollination. For plenty of corn all season, plant early and late varieties.
