Early Corn

How early do you pit corn in the Ground? I’m ready to turn some soil....well after it dries out a little lol.

I’m gonna put some in as soon as it’s dry enough to run the dibble wheel. I put a couple seeds in a pot of soil and they sprouted so I’m gonna try it.

My daddy always said if you ain't got fresh corn for the 4th you ain't much of a gardener

What part of the state you in. Up here in north Bama I wait till the last week in March

South Walker County

When oak leaves are just breaking out of the bud.

Always heard you can plant anything after Good Friday, but I have seen it frost after Good Friday when it comes really early. The answer is when It ain’t gonna frost again according to farmers almanac based on historical data the average last frost date for Walker co is 14 April.

Put it in the ground.

I always plant my sweet corn the week of good friday. Worked for me every year except last year. I had a terrible year for corn. This year will be better!! Moving ground this year, hoping for the best.

Finally got my first patch planted a few days ago. Checked a seed this morning and it had about a 3/4” sprout on it. Should be out the ground in a few more days.

I'm new to Baldwin co., is it time yet down here???, I'm originally from N. Bama.

Prolly, I'm ready to plant something here.

Went yesterday and bought Maters, Peppers, corn seed, onions, cantaloupe, watermelon, cucumber, squash, zuchinni, okra,,,,,
Mint, Cilantro, and some mixed herb seed.
also got some pigeon pea and rough lemon seed from my time in central FL.
Guess now I gotta go buy a tiller.

I've already planted 70 tomato plants and 3lbs of sweet corn seed.

I have 3 lbs of silver king to put out soon myself. Got 36 better boys today, need about that many marglobes and it will be a good year. May be a few more weeks before I can get some of this planted but I wanted to get it on hand.
