I grew just 6 as I had little space left and about 3 managed to get to cobs which, like Claire, didn't ripen. Not sure if I'll try again. Shouldn't really just give up should I? Perhaps if I set them growing a little earlier this year to catch more of the "summer" sun I'll be more successful. I read that they need to be in sown squares or rectangles so they can self-pollinate. As with all veg and fruit growing, it's a bit of a gamble, but usually worth it in the end.Elaine, Ellies Treasureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04334015743245835661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5739026961535184090.post-84553735762597176182009-03-19T16:17:00.000-07:002009-03-19T16:17:00.000-07:00Rabbits ae our sweetcorn but it was poxy tbh.Rabbits ae our sweetcorn but it was poxy tbh.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15558017525084735223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5739026961535184090.post-17457878153585347012009-03-19T14:59:00.000-07:002009-03-19T14:59:00.000-07:00My sweetcorn failed last year too.

I think I'll see if I have room in my greenhouse but if not I may pass.Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16712579445183785360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5739026961535184090.post-32883332752221472352009-03-19T13:13:00.000-07:002009-03-19T13:13:00.000-07:00Hello Elaine.
