Well done guys -for reminding me to sow my sweetcorn. I usually grow it in a block with my butternut squash ( I will now call it Two Sisters!!).
In the past I’ve always used the spacing of the butternut (90cm) in a diamond grid and one sweetcorn in between. I will try two sweetcorn in the gaps (if you think it will work). Don’t know why I never thought of that before? My chickens will be pleased, they love sweetcorn. I must try to harvest it before the squirrels get to it.
