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.

Aphids

Heeeere come the aphids.

This spike is the only one so heavily infested. Aphids will continue to take over. I prefer to live with them. Hosing them off, also removes pollen. Spiders and lady bugs are keeping these pests in control, a strong wind will reduce their numbers.
