Corn Early Xtra-Sweet Hybrid | Garden Seeds and Plants

Corn Early Xtra-Sweet Hybrid

Supersweet Hybrid (Sh2) corns can be twice as sweet as others and stay sweet for days if chilled promptly. For best taste, isolate from non-Sh kinds to stop cross-pollination. An All-America Selections winner, Early Xtra-Sweet is 2 weeks earlier than Illini Xtra Sweet. Its 9″ ears have 12-16 rows of golden kernels. Height 6 ft. Ready to harvest in 71 days. GARDEN HINTS: Plant corn in blocks, at least four rows wide, for cross-pollination and well-filled ears. Grows best in full sun (at least 6 hours of direct sun per day). Cultivate carefully to avoid damaging surface roots.
