Hello Charles and fellow corn enthusiasts. I have used the module method (3-4 seeds ea.) over several seasons with excellent results – it really does save a lot of the agonizing over when to sow – which moon phase to work around – weather patterns , frost protection etc etc – I have even been known to pot on to 90ml pots before finally planting out. Squeeze them tight in the no dig beds has been my mantra. A young friend grows commercial crops (direct sown) and is always impressed how advanced my corn season is compared with his. I must say the thought of some steamed freshly cut cobs smothered in butter is most appealing on this dreadfully cold afternoon however best I go do something useful and physical like get a greenhouse ready for the overdue first spring sowing of hardy greens.
Kind regards
Val
