The corn is in. I am taking my "strain" of corn in a slightly different direction. It is currently too tall at 10' to 12' tall. It is vulnerable to blowing over. It is also later maturing that I like. Consequently, I am mixing in a little bit of common yellow corn into the mix. My plan is to de-tassel the yellow corn to ensure it is pollinated by my tall corn.

I planted 10" within the row with 42" between the rows.
