Sweet Corn, Hybrid 
This type of sweet corn is grown the same as the open pollinated except thar it takes less seed per acre. Growers 
have found that 8 lb. is sufficient to plant an acre. 
Do not try to save your seed from hybrids as the seed must 
be produced by crossing each year. On account of their deep root system they are more drouth and heat resistant 
and more immune to disease; they are also most prolific and uniform.
