Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

No special preparation required. Popcorn sweetcorn seeds are ready to plant.

Sowing:

Direct sow seeds outdoors after the last frost date when soil temperatures have warmed to at least 60°F (16°C).
Plant seeds 1 inch deep and 6-8 inches apart in rows spaced 30-36 inches apart to allow for proper spacing and pollination.

Germination:

Seeds typically germinate within 7-10 days under optimal conditions.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the germination period.

Transplanting:

Popcorn sweetcorn is best sown directly into the garden. However, if starting indoors, use biodegradable pots to minimize root disturbance and transplant seedlings carefully after the last frost date.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Provide consistent moisture, especially during dry periods and when plants are forming ears. Avoid overhead watering to prevent diseases.
Weeding: Keep the area around the plants weed-free to reduce competition for nutrients and water.
Harvesting: Popcorn sweetcorn is typically ready for harvest 75-90 days after planting when kernels are fully formed and mature. Check for ripeness by gently pressing a kernel with your fingernail; mature kernels will be hard and resist puncture.
