Sweet Corn 
% 
Sweet Corn should be planted after all danger of frost is past and the soil has become warm. Plant- 
ings should be made in succession every two weeks, or better still, use different varieties that mature 
at different dates. One pound of seed will plant about 200 feet of row. The rows should be three 
or four feet apart and the seed planted 4 to 6 inches apart in the row, later thinning to 12 inches. 
In hill plantings the hills should be 3 to 4 feet each way, with 6 to 8 kernels planted to the hill, 
thinned later to 4 plants to the hill. Corn should be planted in blocks rather than in a single row 
to insure pollination.
