When to Sow Sweetcorn Mini Pop F1 Seeds

April and May

Where to Sow

Early sowings can be made into pots or modules under glass at 21°C. Later sowings can be made direct into growing site, sowing 2 seeds per sowing station. Do not sow as a single row, sow in blocks spacing as detailed below.

What to do Next

Pot raised seedlings should be gradually hardened off in a cold frame before transplanting into the plot once all risk of frost has passed. Do not plant in rows, but plant in blocks. For baby corns space plants 15cm (6") apart and 30cm (12in) between the rows to aid pollination by wind.

Harvest

Late August to September

Handy Tip

Cobs are ready to harvest when the end tassels turn brown. Delicious eaten straight from the plant or cooked with a little melted butter.
