Item Details<\/h2>\n

Canadian Early Supersweet Hybrid Corn is an extremely early “supersweet” variety specifically developed for short-season areas. It produces large, 20-25 cm (8-10″) ears of very sweet kernels. “Supersweets” hold their flavor much longer than other varieties when picked. Be sure to separate from other varieties by 7.5 m (25′) to maintain its unique characteristics.<\/p>\n

Learn To Grow Hybrid Sweet Corn Supersweet #10<\/h2>\n

Preparation Ideas:<\/strong> Corn is ready to harvest approximately 20 days after the silk first appears on cobs. The silk turns brown and the husk will be green. Remove cobs from stalks just before eating. Remove husks and silk from corn ears. Bring water to a large pot to boil (you can add salt to the water if desired). There should be enough water in the pot to cover the ears. Using tongs, carefully insert corn into boiling water. Cover the pot and let the water return to boil. Shut off the heat and keep a lid on the pot for approximately 5 to 10 minutes. Kernels should be fork tender. Carefully remove corn from the water using tongs. Cool corn slightly for handling. Eat unadorned or with butter and pepper.<\/p>\n

Sow seed directly in soil once all danger of frost has passed. Planting in a block instead of a long single row will help in pollination. Water regularly.<\/p>\n
