City Corn

Having seen turn-of –the-20th-century sepia photos of corn grown in high density by Native Americans, it seemed plausible to grow corn in pots. So, in 2004, I grew 8’ corn in 7-3/4” containers.

There was considerable interest in the project. Unfortunately, my venture was not well documented. The garden will be replanted in 2005, along with occasional posting of the process of how to grow corn in pots.

The tallest plant is currently 1-3/4”.



Germination has been as follows –


The seed pack states germination is 10-14 days, the seeds were planted fourteen days ago. Will give the four slackers one more week to get with it.
