Blue Jade Corn, Organic

Not available for 2024 

Seed Savers Exchange - One of the only sweet corns that can be grown in containers, the 3-foot-tall plants of this variety bear 3-6 ears. The peak time for eating is when kernels are just turning blue, but can be eaten when white or steel blue. This variety is from Dutch seedsman and Seed Savers Exchange member Kees Sahin. 70-80 days. ±185 seeds/oz

Instructions -

Sow seeds outdoors 1" deep after danger of frost has passed. For good pollination and full ears, plant in blocks of 3-6 rows instead of one long row. Thin seedlings to 8" apart. Corn is a heavy feeder and does best in well-drained fertile soil with plenty of water.
