I still like Kandy Corn, Silver Queen is ok, but I prefer it frozen off the cob. Merit is good corn if your growing and shucking a lot yourself.
Peaches and Cream is good corn, but I don't think it keeps as well as Kandy. I miss the garden I had on my dad's old home place, 60-80 dozen ears on the first picking off of 5 rows, the corn was tall and full. about 85% production. The garden spot I have now does OK, but I am still trying to figure out the right combination of fertilizer and area in garden.
We had a terrible year weather wise approaching 20 inches of rain in June- July period when stalks are growing, mine was late but grew tall and weak.
Squirrels got a lot of it.
It does taste good though, and that's something I always look forward to; the first tomatoes and the first 4 ears of corn for my wife and I to have with supper.
