How to Grow
When planting in rows, space the seed 10-15 cm apart, later thinning to 20-30 cm apart with the rows 55-75 cm apart. To ensure proper pollination, plant at least 3 to 4 rows. Corn can also be planted with 3 to 4 seeds per hill in hills spaced 30 cm apart. Plant 250 g to a 30 m row; 4.5-6.8 kg per acre. Work in a good general vegetable fertilizer at planting, keep weeds under control and the soil evenly watered through the season. Sowing Temperature Guidelines. Sow only when soils have warmed to 18° C. Some years this happens in mid May, other years we need to wait until late May or early June. Germination occurs in approximately 10 days.
