Corn - Yellow Corn - Yukon Chief - Org

The Yukon Chief Organic Corn is a real find from the University of Alaska Agriculture Experiment Station. It was bred in the mid-1960's. This exceptionally early dwarf corn grows to only 3' tall, but the 5" to 6" ears have 10 to 12 rows of golden yellow kernels. The kernels have an outstanding flavor for a normal sugary, open-pollinated corn. Bred for the north, this corn has excellent cold soil emergence. Makes this corn a real treasure for northern hardy gardeners! Plant organic corn seeds in a sunny location after the last frost. There are two ways to plant corn -- in blocks or in hills. Plant corn in a block of several rows rather than a single row for better pollination and ear production. . ... additional info
