Growing Tips
If the plant grows more than 2 fruit, can harvest as baby corn.
Sweet corn is a kind of cross-pollination plant, so suggest to grow by 3x3 grid, in order to increase the percentage of pollination.
May apply Mr Ganick Dr. Neem oil in the evening after watering, in order to repel insects, twice a week.
Sweet corn is a multiple-harvested crop, suggested to harvest 2- 3 times.
