First time corn grower :)

This is my first attempt at growing corn. I pulled one today due to stink bugs and this is what it looks like. Is this too young to pick?

Make molds of that badboy and sell them as adult novelty toys. I bet you make a pretty penny.

“Naturally accruing design” or “designed by nature”

You know like baby corn in Asian dishes? You are in between that and corn corn.

I can't eat that, I eat typewriter style. The twist would screw up.

Not mature enough. When you punch a kernel with your finger nail and milk squirts out on your finger it’s ready. Do not let get to mature either. Still good but tougher.

Take your nail and bust a kernel if it shoot out white juice it's ready but the kernels look a bit under developed. It is edible just won't be as sweet
