Growing Information

We recommend planting Argentina Orange Flint Corn using a walk-behind planter like our Hoss Garden Seeder. Once plants emerge, thin plants to 6-12" depending on adequate irrigation. If drip irrigation is used, in-row spacing may be as close as 8". If water is scarce, the wider in-row spacing will be necessary. For pollination purposes, corn should be planted in a square plot with rows on 30-36" spacing. Planting a few long rows will result in poor germination and the absence of kernels on the cobs. Allow the cobs to dry on the stalk and harvest when the kernels can be easily removed from the ear by simply pressing your thumb along the cob.
