Nesa,
If you have enough corn plants together, you don't need to pollinate them,
the pollen is wind-borne and will do fine on its own. Since you want baby
corn, you only have to wait a few days after tassling (flowering). You can
probably start checking for cobs any time now.

Subject: Chinese baby corn
Hi guys, I am growing this for the first time. Has anyone out there tried
it? I am Asian but got my seeds from a friend in Texas who hasnt tried them
yet! I got mine started while she had winter.My babies are flowering. I have
no idea what to expect / do next. Do I slef-pollinate at some point.
P.S I havent gorwn corn since I was 9, almost 30 years ago!
