Re:Re: A few questions. Was : Alive?-


   Corn LIKES to be a little crowded as it depends on wind and 
gravity for pollination to get good ears.  When mine is near 
pollination time I give it a shake each time I pass by if it is not 
windy.  One row at 1per foot would not get good pollination 
therefore inferior ears with missing kernels/seeds.
