Growing Information
How to Sow
Although you can skip this step, your seeds will come up much faster if you soak them overnight before sowing. Plant them directly in the place they're to grow, spacing them 20 cm apart.
How to Harvest
Harvest immature cobs when the kernals are yellow and white if you want to eat as a sweet corn. The rainbow cobs will develop if the cobs are left on the plant to dry.
