Unperturbed by cooler and wetter soils conditions Golden Eagle F1 comes through with flying colours: namely strong growth (150-180cm tall), gorgeous sweet flavour and tender texture
Sow: inside from April to early May, seed depth 20mm using deep pots, or from late April to June outside
Grow: harden off when about 15cm tall and after frost danger has passed. Plant them in a block with the plants and rows about 30-50 cm apart. Sweetcorn is wind pollinated. In the garden you can pick a some of the tassels and brush the silks every few days to ensure pollination.
Enjoy: cobs are ready to harvest when the juice from a kernel is ‘milky’. Clear juice means it isn’t ripe enough. If the cobs are over-ripe they will be less sweet & tender and the juice becomes thicker
