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.

Side-Plants Appear

The past three days have been in the upper 80s, and mid-90s. Today, several of the more mature corn stocks are exhibiting side-plants.

Last year, suckers started to develop sometime after pollination.
