Hola

This year we deciced to grow Sweetcorn from seed, the results so far have been amazing, the plants are over 2 foot tall already and we can't wait to get the corn on the BBQ!

I have added some images so you can see, these were taken 9 days ago and they have grown more already!

Anyone else here growing sweetcorn?

I am really looking forward to getting these babies wrapped in foil with butter and on the BBQ - tummy is rumbling just thinking about it!

Please do and a little tip for you regarding sweetcorn, grow them in a square not in a line like I did. We did get a few plants but not as many as we should have done so I learnt some valuable lessons there, but hey that is what this forum for, we are not all experts Wink

Thomson & Morgan are good and I have bought many seeds from them over the years but now I tend to swap seeds with friends which is much more fun!
