Store in a cool and dry location such as the refrigerator or basement to best preserve germination rates. Planting Instructions: Soil Preparation and Fertilizing: For small gardens, corn is best planted in square blocks instead of long rows to improve cross-pollination between corn stalks. Corn will grow best in areas with plenty of sunlight and prefers well-drained soils with a pH between 5.5 and 7.0. To prepare the soil, clear the area of rocks, trash, and large sticks. Small pieces of grass and leaves can be mixed into the soil to make it richer. Spade the soil 8-10 inches deep and completely cover plant material. You may optionally scatter 2-3 pounds of a complete fertilizer for every 100 square feet of garden area. Rake it into the top 4 inches of soil. Rake the soil until it is smooth. Planting: Corn is best planted after the soil warms and is free from all danger of frost. Plant 1-2 ounces of seed for every 100 feet of row. Corn grows best when planted in several short rows instead of one long row. This makes it easier for the plants to pollinate and fill cobs with kernels. Plant corn seeds 1 inch deep and 3-4 inches apart. Space rows 2 1/2 – 3 feet apart. After the plants are up, thin them to 1 foot apart. For a steady harvest, plant again after 2-3 weeks. Planting Depth: 1 inch Within-Row Spacing: 3-4 inch, thin to 1 foot Between-Row Spacing: 2 1/2 – 3 feet Care During the Season: Watering: Water corn as needed to keep it from wilting. When kernels are forming, try not to let the corn suffer from lack of water. Weeding and Fertilizing: Hoe the weeds off just below the soil’s’ surface. Try not to work the soil more than 1 inch deep to prevent injuring root systems. When corn plants are about 2 feet fall, you may optionally apply 1 cup of fertilizer for every 10 feet of garden row. Scatter fertilizer evenly between rows and mix it lightly with the soil. Water after fertilizing. Insecticides: Insecticides may be used to protect plants. Bt-based insecticides and sulfur are organic options that can be used for prevention. Sevin is a synthetic option. Sulfur also has fungicidal properties and helps in controlling many diseases. Before using a pesticide, please read the label and always follow cautions, warnings and directions. Diseases: If a few of your corn plants are stunted, they may have a viral disease and should be removed to keep the virus from spreading. Harvesting: Indian Corn are ready for harvest when the outer husks turn brown and dry. To harvest the ears, hold the stalk below the ear and twist the tip of the ear toward the ground until it breaks off. Let the corn ears dry for a week. You may optionally coat Indian corn with lacquer to give a shiny appearance. Indian corn may be stored at room temperature for 4-6 months.

Silver King White Dent Corn Seeds | Open Pollinated Flint Field Feed Silage 2024

The Silver King Dent Corn, also known as “Wisconsin No. 7”, is not to be confused with the hybrid sweet corn of the same name! This early-maturing heirloom white dent corn is the leading white variety in the northern Corn Belt, with full-to-the-tip 8-9-inch long ears, very wide 16-a-row kernels, and leafy stalks that make it an excellent variety for silage. This strong grower, developed in 1904, is especially adapted to resist cold weather. White varieties are typically lower in protein and oil and higher in starch than yellow varieties, making them superior for distillation. Like “Bloody Butcher Corn”, it can be roasted when young and ground when mature for grits, meal, hominy, and masa. Also Known As: White Flint Corn, Wisconsin No. 7 Corn, Hickory King White Dent, Dent Corn, Ornamental Corn, Calico Corn, Cattle Corn, SIlage Corn, Animal Feed Corn, Grinding Corn, Cornmeal Corn, Open-Pollinated Corn, Native American Corn, Flint Corn, Parching Corn, Roasting Corn, Flour Corn, Indian Corn, Pole Corn, Maize, Maise, Calico Corn, Ornamental Corn, Decorative Corn.
