The ears of corn grow 8 to 9 inches long on plants reaching 8 to 9 feet high. This corn type is ready to harvest in 95 days and is best when eaten as soon as it is picked. Truckers Favorite resists corn earworms and plant diseases, which makes it easier to grow than other varieties that have not been improved.1 Work the soil up with a shovel in an area with full sun exposure. Add a 2- to 4-inch-layer of well-rotted compost or manure to the planting area. Dig the amendment into the soil to the depth of 12 inches, and let the planting bed sit over the winter. 2 Check the soil with a thermometer starting two weeks after the last spring frost date. When the soil temperatures reach 60 degrees Fahrenheit or above, loosen the soil with a garden hoe. Create rows 1/2 inch deep spaced 30 to 36 inches apart. Corn rows need to run parallel to each other to ensure the best pollination rate. Place the corn seeds in the row 9 to 12 inches apart. Cover loosely with soil.3 Water around the base of the corn plants whenever the soil starts to dry out. It is important to provide the corn plants with moisture when no rainfall has occurred. Water until the soil is damp to a depth of 8 to 12 inches. Use a hand trowel to dig down between the rows to check the watering depth. Do not let the soil dry out completely. It will take about 5 gallons of water per square yard each week to give the corn plants enough moisture. 4 Make an inch-deep trench beside each row of corn when the plants are 12 to 18 inches tall. Sprinkle slow-release all-purpose 5-5-5 fertilizer into the trench, and cover the fertilizer with soil. Our seeds/bulbs are guaranteed to be fresh but are NOT guaranteed as to results.
