Alternatively sow directly outside in late spring (May onwards) allowing 12-18in between plants and 18in between rows. Corn must be planted in blocks, not as a single row to ensure good pollination.
Cover any roots that appear at the base with mulch or old compost to retain moisture. Do not allow the crop to dry out during hot weather whilst flowering. These do need a long season to enable the cobs to start drying on the plants.
