Everytime I fertilized my corn this year it has poured a flood and washed it away. I've fertilized it 6 times if not more and it's still stunted. It won't stop raining here on the coast of NC. Hoping I can get another crop in. I've had to dig potatoes early and throw tomato plants in the woods. We are finally getting a break now. Great video guys, always learn something knew.

Revisiting planting early sweet corn varieties with classic Greg and Travis start @ 26:00 for a laugh. Then, start at the beginning. Yellowstone and Glacial White did fantastic planted side by side for us in S.E. Louisiana last spring 2022. No cross pollination. For ideal germination, be extra patient and wait for ideal soil temperature like they suggest. These two varieties are holding there honey sweetness after pressure canning nine months later.

I'm planning on doing a planting of silver queen followed by a planting of avalon a few weeks apart - hoping to give my inlaws a side by side comparison (they're stuck on silver queen). Interested to see the differences for myself in how quickly they grow and how they taste! It's one thing to hear it from y'all vs seeing and tasting it for yourself! As always - thanks for the great content!

[@gardeningwithhoss]

That will be a great comparison!

[@wesleycallison2079]

A LOT of people only like silver queen .

[@gardeningwithhoss]

@Wesley Callison Yep, we hear that a lot. Often times it's because they've never really experimented with some of the newer, sweeter varieties. But some folks don't like their corn to be very sweet, and that's the reason why they love Silver Queen.

I'm very impressed, and want to applaud y'all, for constantly adding to your seed and product lines!! I'm looking forward to what's coming soon! Nice tease Greg! Good, clear, concise, guidance on corn this week. I know that will be helpful to us all. I'm glad you touched a little on "cross pollination" and that might be a good thing to cover in a future show. It won't take much time to explain it, but I find that it's one thing that confuses gardeners the most. I'm so glad that you include both the Latin genus name and species name of every seed type on the website (maybe include on seed pkts also??).

[@gardeningwithhoss]

Not a bad idea to put that info on the packets, although that we'd have to slowly transition into it considering the amount of printed packets we have in house.

[@tommathews3964]

@@gardeningwithhoss Just a thought. I try to order with the genus/species in mind, if I am planning on planting together with the possibility of saving seed. If I have multiple seed packets of same genus (brassicas and cucurbits come to mind), I'll just write it on the pack to keep me straight. If you explain cross pollination by genus/species on the show, you'll get to use more cards for sure! :) Greg will like that!

I did not check the weather before I cut up my red norland potatoes. I read the page on your website that said to cut up several days before planting. I am hopping that I did not cut them up too early! I am waiting for it to dry up a bit. I think I will plant them on Monday. By then they will have been cut up for 8 days.

[@Maggie-Gardener-Maker]

I sure do enjoy this podcast, it really is best gardening show I know of to layout things in regular folk terminology. You know I was thinking about the people who ask about cross pollination and wonder if they are worried because they want to save their seeds because if not then it really don't matter due to cross pollination only occurs in the next generation which would be if they were savings seed to plant the next year otherwise it don't matter for the crop that is actually growing. If a home gardener is buying seeds each year and not saving the seeds for next crop then why worry about cross pollination?

I love hoss tools. Your transforming my gardening experience and knowledge. Please forgive my ignorance. I am transitioning to traditional gardening from square foot gardening. When you say row spacing are you talking about the distance of the row or the distance between rows. Like you were talking about the row spacing on the corn should be 30 to 36 inches. Thank you from snowy San Antonio, TX!

[@gardeningwithhoss]

"row spacing" refers to the distance between rows.

[@Myforevergarden]

Thank you. I watched one of your corn planting videos today and realized that. My experience with gardening has been only square foot. It seems like such a waste of space to plant in a single row with 30-36” in between. It is hard to plan my garden that way. However I applying all of your techniques this year and using your seeds and equipment. We will see what comes of it. Thanks again!

Love your videos! Wondering if you ever freeze corn on the cob and what the best way to do it is?

We have frozen it. Blanche it in boiling water for 3 mins, then straight to an ice water bath, then vacuum seal in bags. It's ok. Definitely not as good as the fresh product, but nothing frozen typically is.

Bees can cross pollinate both. In tomatoes it's only about 5% of the time. Not sure about okra. But it can happen. No problem unless of course you're saving/trading/selling seed. It also depends on your bee population. I have 2 varieties of okra I want to save seed from.

Yes, it works great as well. But because it's not water-soluble, it's not quite as fast. It's more of a slow-release fertilizer as most granular fertilizers are. You'd also need use twice as much 10-10-10 as 20-20-20.

Grain corn used for animal feed is more often white and sometimes called horse-corn. Dent corn, also referred to as field corn, is common in livestock feeds Field corn is the classic big ears of yellow dented corn you see dried and harvested in the fall. In fact, it’s sometime called “dent corn” because of the distinctive dent that forms on the kernel as the corn dries. Field corn has dozens of uses, but it is most commonly fed to animals or used to make renewable fuels like ethanol to power our cars and trucks. hosstools.com/product-category/premium-garden-seeds/corn-field/
