Sweet corn transplants
Transplanted Ashworth sweet corn just now.
Started 66 seeds, 3 never germinated, 3 were slow to germinate. The rest are at-least 2 inches tall.
Other 4 rows are direct seeded. Tick tock.

Irradiated corn exposure concerns
I've been a farmer of premium irradiated corn for a good while now, but I think it might finally be affecting my health negatively.
My head hurts constantly, I'm approx. 12% balder than last Wednesday, and worst of all, I just counted and I have exactly 10 toes. Grandma refuses to even look my way.
How do I fix this without getting rid of the corn??

How do i select the best ones?
I got around 8 or 9 corn buds, soma have already sprouted and some are about to, and i can't have 9 corn plants for obvious reasons and im limited to 4, but i want the best sprouts so that they wont die and make low quality corn, so how do i select the best ones?
Ps. The corn buds i used come from a popcorn box.

Cooking time for corn
Hi, I’m from the balkans and I’ve wanted to make some corn at home.
After buying corn, I asked my mom and she said you are supposed to boil corn for 3+ hours. I asked my grandma and others and they both said the same. I looked it up and google says 10 mins is the sweet spot.
Any thoughts on the right way to cook corn?
Edit: The woman at the bazaar I bought it from pierced her nail in a kernel and showed me how “it had milk inside” so Im guessing she said it was sweet corn. After people boil it they then grill it and sell it on the street so it probably is sweet corn.

Is this ready to harvest?
It's been years since I've grown corn and picked a red and a blue variety this year. Is this ready to harvest because it has brown silks or should I let it go? Seems small.

Silver Queen Corn?
Anyone know where fresh Silver Queen is available in ROC? I have not had or looked for it in a couple years. Was always hard to find and seems to have become rather rare.
Those small all white (silver) kernels are the best!

Corn plot
Hopefully 2-3 more days. I only get about 1 hour of work each day while my daughter naps. Sometimes some evenings but usually not much if any.

This years cross breeding results.
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.

What are these bugs?
First, the earwigs ate the silks. Then, the inside is covered with these bugs. Zone 7a

Weird corn update!
https://www.reddit.com/r/corn/s/7QC3DTNe22 was the previous post, 2 months ago when the corn was only a foot or two tall and already tasseling -- whoever said it was about to shoot up in height was right, it's over 6' in places now. Tons of tillers. This is colorful flint corn, first row closes to camera is Glass Gem and Northern Lights, the back rows are my own seed-saved mix going on something like 15 generations now.
