First introduced in 1902, it is this old favourite that was responsible for changing the public colour preference in sweet corn from white to yellow. A true eight rowed cob with broad, sweet golden kernels on cobs 17.5cm (7in) long. A delicious tasting corn for any hard-to-please palate! Irrigation is essential for proper kernel formation.

Pick before kernels over-ripen for best flavour and texture.\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eAttributes\u003c\/h4\u003e \r\n\u003cb\u003eLight Requirement:\u003c\/b\u003e Full Sun \u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003ePlanting Method:\u003c\/b\u003e Direct Seed \u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/b\u003e Sturdy \u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eDays to Emergence:\u003c\/b\u003e 10 \u003cbr\u003e \r\n\u003cb\u003eDays to Harvest\u003c\/b\u003e 72 \u003cbr\u003e \r\n\u003cb\u003eHeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1 - 2m (3 - 6ft) \u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eHow to Grow\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\nWhen planting in rows, space the seed 10-15cm (4-6in) apart, later thinning to 20-30cm (8-12in) apart with the rows 55-75cm (22-30in) apart. To ensure proper pollination, plant at least 3 to 4 rows. Corn can also be planted with 3 to 4 seeds per hill in hills spaced 30cm (12in) apart. Work in a good general vegetable fertilizer at planting, keep weeds under control and the soil evenly watered through the season. Sow only when soils have warmed to 18 C. Some years this happens in mid May, other years we need to wait until late May or early June.\r\n\u003cp\u003eIf you need any more photos or additional information on this product, send us a message using the chat button on our website with the product name, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ontario Seed Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49717997633776,"sku":"89478","price":1.64,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0421\/3617\/4760\/files\/89478-1_c37cb584-d443-4459-acd8-211b44a8465e.jpg?v=1772309992","url":"https:\/\/floralacres.ca\/products\/sweet-corn-golden-bantam-seeds-osc-pack-89477","provider":"Floral Acres Greenhouse \u0026 Garden Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
