Product Description Sweet corn minipop f1 seed by Mr. Fothergill's. Bred for tender 'mini-corn'. A sweet and tasty variety, the whole cob is eaten raw or lightly steamed. Bred for use as mini-corn, they should be picked before the grains begin to swell. Useful Information: Dietary fibre Sow and grow: Sow indoors, March-May. A warm kitchen windowsill is all you need for starting these seeds. Sow, 1.5 cm (1/2-inch) deep, in pots of compost. Keep warm and moist. A temperature of 15-20 degree C (60-68 degree F) is ideal. Seedlings usually appear in 7-21 days. Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out, May-June, into well-cultivated, fertile soil, when frosts are over. Plant in blocks and allow 30 cm (1-feet), both ways, between plants, disturbing roots as little as possible. Or, sow outdoors, during May, 1.5 cm (1/2-inch) deep, two seeds together at 30 cm (1-feet) intervals in block formation. Sowings may benefit from cloche protection if temperatures drop. Thin to the stronger seedling when large enough to handle. Harvest: August-September. Hints and tips: Ready to harvest when the silks have just formed and become visible. Box Contains 1x 50 Seeds Pack
