Golden Bantam Sweet Corn Planting Instructions:
1. When to Plant: Golden Bantam is a warm-season crop. Sow seeds directly into the garden once the soil has warmed to at least 60°F and all danger of frost has passed. Because this variety matures quickly, it is a great choice for a fast summer crop.
2. Preparation: Corn is a "heavy feeder" and requires nutrient-rich soil to develop full ears. Work plenty of compost or aged manure into the soil before planting. Choose a site with full sun and good drainage for the best results.
3. Sowing: To ensure successful wind pollination, always plant corn in blocks of at least 4 rows rather than one long row. Sow seeds 1 inch deep and space them 8-12 inches apart. Keep the soil consistently moist during the germination period.
4. Thinning and Care: Once seedlings are 3-4 inches tall, thin them to ensure they have enough room to grow. Corn requires deep, regular watering, especially during the tasseling and ear-forming stages. Mulching will help keep the roots cool and prevent moisture loss.
5. Pests and Diseases: Watch for corn earworms and flea beetles. Applying a small amount of mineral oil to the silks once they begin to brown can help deter earworms. To prevent smut and other fungal issues, avoid overhead watering and practice crop rotation by not planting corn in the same spot two years in a row.
