How to grow this seed

Additional Information

Growing Information

Sowing info

Best started under cover in April in module trays, it is fast growing so don’t start too early. Sweetcorn needs a bit of warmth in the soil for germination, so if you’re starting in April, keep them on a windowsill or sunny greenhouse until they take off. Plant out only when all risk of frost has passed.

Growing info

Plant in ‘blocks’ or rectangle patterns to give the best chance of good pollination. The sweet flavour will be compromised with cross polination with other corns so keep as much distance as possible from other varieties and sow 2 weeks apart so they flower at different times.
