Glass Gem Corn, Organic | $4

Carl Barnes, a Seedsavers Exchange member, worked to develop this strain of glass colored kernals.  They are used in crafts, decor, cornmeal and popcorn.  The work on improving the corn continues with Greg Schoen.  1-2 ears per stalk, ears are 6-8 long and plants grow to 8' tall.  Late maturing 110 days. We source this from a variety of places depending on availability. 

  • Organic & Open Pollinated
  • Flint/Popcorn
  • 1-2 ears per stalk, each 6-8" long
  • Plants 8-10' tall
  • 110 days
  • ~50 Seeds per pack

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.
