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.

Damaged Leaves

Another emergent leaf tip has been damaged. Both assaulted leaves are growing on north-facing perimeter plants, on the far side of the photos. There is some foot traffic on this side of the crop, and it could be that a leaf tip has been a casualty.



First ladybug sighting of the year, by the time I had the camera ready, she was hiding behind some leaves.
