Sweet Corn - Double Red Seeds
Corn can be direct-seeded outdoors once all risk of frost has passed, or started indoors about 3-4 weeks before your last frost date. For indoor planting, use 1-2 inch (2.5-5 cm) pots and ensure plants aren’t transplanted outdoors until frost risk is completely gone.
Bury seeds 1-2 inches (2.5-5 cm) deep and cover with soil, keeping the area moist until germination, which typically occurs within 7-20 days, depending on soil temperatures.
For optimal growth, space plants 8-10 inches (20-25 cm) apart, and plant in blocks of at least 4 rows spaced 2-3 feet (60-90 cm) apart. This planting method encourages better pollination and yields.
