Instructions

Best practice is to sow Early Golden Bantam Hybrid Sweet Corn seeds directly in the garden after all danger of frost is past and soil is warm. Plant 1 seed every 4" and then thin to 1 plant every 12" when plants are 4" tall. Control weeds with a mulch and keep plants well watered, especially when tops begin to tassel.

Planting Depth: 1"

Seed Spacing: Plant Early Golden Bantam Hybrid Sweet Corn seeds approximately 12" apart in rows.

Suggestions

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