Equinox Sweet Corn Seeds
Seed treated with fungicide
About- This up-and-coming variety produced the best ear of sweet corn we tasted at the 2022 sweet corn trial! Each ear is approximately 7 1/2 inches long with perfectly aligned, extra sweet kernels that hold their sweetness for days after picking. Must be Isolated from other non-augmented varieties.
When and Where to Plant- Select a sunny location and plant when all danger of frost is past and the soil has warmed. For best results, cultivate soil and fertilize with vegetable food. To ensure good pollination, sow seed in blocks of at least 4 rows side by side, rather than a long single row. For an extended harvest, plant every 3 weeks until early summer.
Care and Harvest- Grows best in soil with a pH between 6 and 7. Cultivate weekly or mulch between plants and rows to control weeds. Pick when silks turn brown and ears are firm. Test by piercing a few kernels with thumbnail. The skin should be tender and the juice should have a milky look to it. For the best eating experience, pick, prepare, cook and eat the same day.
