Description

Sugar Buns Sweet Corn is a Non-GMO, hybrid variety (Zea mays) that can be planted in spring after the last frost date and grown through the warmer months up until fall — just allow enough time to harvest before first frost. With a quick 70-day maturity, it's one of the faster sweet corn varieties you can grow.

Growing Information

Sugar Buns Sweet Corn should be planted in the spring after the last frost date. Sweet corn can be grown throughout the warmer months up until fall, as long as time is permitted for harvest before first frost. Succession planting is recommended with at least two plantings, one in early spring and one in late summer/early fall. Corn ear worm pressure will be greater in the warmer months, but this can be alleviated by applying spinosad to silks and tassels once they appear.

We recommend planting sweet corn using a walk-behind planter like our Hoss Garden Seeder. Once plants emerge, thin plants to 6-8" depending on adequate irrigation. If drip irrigation is used, in-row spacing may be as close as 6". If water is scarce, a 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 absence of kernels on the cobs.
