Swift F1 is an extra tender variety. It can be eaten cooked or raw. And it lives up to its name, swiftly growing and taking just 10-11 weeks from planting out to harvesting.
Sow: inside from mid-April to early May in deep pots, or from May to June outside. Push the seed 2-3cm down and keep moist and warm to help with germination.
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. Swift is a vigorous, but not tall, early to mid-season variety taking just 10-11 weeks to reach harvesting: depending on the season this could be in late July!
Eat & Enjoy: Cobs are ready when the juice from a kernel is ‘milky’. Cook soon after picking. Swift can also be munched on raw as a snack.
