Not too many but I'm proud anyhow

Uh oh! You just reminded me to go check my corn. A few are ready but I have a couple with green silk still. I'm beginning to think they never pollinated. I only have one row and I've been reading you need to plant bout 4 rows to ensure pollination. Oh well! Next year I'm planting bout 8 rows. Anyways, That is a big ear of corn and looks ready to pick 'n' eat. I have one like that as well..only one thou. Rest are small.

I wish I had enough room to plant different stuff like that. I have a tomato plant but that's it. I want a garden but we really don't have enough room for one and where we could put one the sun doesn't shine much on that area. We got a bunch of home grown corn from a friend of ours though and it was so good.

That corn relly looks like it is ready to pick now. Don't wait too long or it will be losing it cream.

It must feel great prearing a meal, & eating it, when you know some of the foods are homegrown. I bet they are tasty. There is nothing like a fresh salad. Do you grow lettuces? Due to frost, etc, our lettuces have gone up to $4.00 each. I viewed your corn photo, rated it & wrote a comment.

I'm doing some heavy duty visualization that one day I'll have my own home with a lot of land and can grow my own garden..I envy not only you but all the folks here that can have gardens of some kind...ah, c'est la vie---I had commented on your tomatoes discussion...and you'll understand what I mean when I say this...sure glad I didn't grow corn instead..LOL--now they get really tall!!!

i love corn specially the yellow sweet corn grilled..yum! can i have some grandpa? i always buy corn because i really love it and i cant get enough of corns..

I think I love your garden too.. or at least I love hearing about it. - I have some sort of little grubs getting into my tomatoes and peppers! I'm having to pick them real early or these little buggers are getting in and then a slow rot starts, then it soon goes bad altogether! I'm thinking it must have been all the dry weather, and the veggies were nice and moist, as I've never had 'em before..

Corn takes a lot of room- I agree- this is the first year we didn’t put any in- It’s just as easy to grab it from the farmers market my sig. other said- But I decorate with the corn husks in the fall- I love talking about gardens and all the goodies you get from them- We have been eating every night something from ours- I have to go home and pick beans after work tonight! : (

And so you should be proud Grandpa Bob! We haven't really got many veg this year but I do have a few tomatoes that are almost ready and quite a few apples and pears too! There is nothing that tastes (or smells) quite so good as home grown veg does! Enjoy it sweets! xxxx

Thats great that your corn is doing so well. My corn is doing pretty good to. I have about 8 ears so far, but they are not ready yet. My stalks are tall as well. Kinda looks funny in our small yard lol.

I love corn on the cob. good thing that it's not very expensive to buy fresh corn from the supermarket here in singapore. 2 ears for about 50 US cents. of course when you grow yours for free it's unbeatable. I like to eat mine boiled in water and seasoned with butter and salt. yum!! there are also snacks sold in a cup in singapore outdoors where there are corn nibblets similarly seasoned. not cheap though, USD $1.30 for a small coffee cup's worth. the other corn snack i really love are those corn muffins they sell at Kenny Rogers' restaurants. Love the slightly dense texture. Would be grateful if anyone had the secret recipe for those!!

It looks very good..thank you for sharing.
