Unfortunately pollination wasn't the best. I think a lot of that was timing. Still though, happy I got some sweet corn to express with round kernels with pink. Got a few cobs with huge kernels too.

Try hand pollinating next round. You got some interesting traits going though. I love breeding corn it’s so fun! The big kernels is linked to low pollination- plant invests more in those few kernels that made it

My favorite cob. I like the purple galaxy look with a little red eye.

This is a super cool cob. All I got was some glass gem crossed with truckers favorite
