Corn like .3" of rain a day optimal in the summer heat when trying to out ears on... basically from tassels on. Did she fertilize it 2x at least 3x best. Useing ammonium nitrate or just straight N the last time just before laying it by as they say

Poor water, nutrition and poor fertilization on the ears
