Corn Sweet Bodacious Yellow Seed
Zea - mays
$1.99

Item #0018

Bodacious is a gourmet sweet corn with exceptional flavor. Not found in grocery stores, it was developed for home gardeners and fresh market growers. As a truly homozygous sugary enhanced (sese) hybrid, it is widely adaptable to northern latitudes and has consistent performance making it the most popular variety in its class. You will love its very high quality flavor and sweetness. There�s no need to get the pot boiling on the stove before you go out and pick - Bodacious holds its sweetness for a few days after harvesting.

When to plant outside: Recommended. Spring, a week or two after the average last spring frost date and when soil is warm (60-65 degrees). SOIL MUST BE WARM FOR GERMINATION TO OCCUR.

When to start inside: Corn seed does not transplant well. Outdoor sowing is recommended.

Special Sowing and Germination Instructions: Corn is easy to grow from seed. For best results, provide optimal germination conditions in your garden including �� planting depth and warm soil Since pollination occurs from wind, seed should be planted in blocks. Sow 6� apart and thin to 1� apart. This (se) variety should be separated from field corn, popcorn, and SH� (super sweet) varieties by 250 feet to prevent cross-pollination. Staggering plantings with a 10-15 plus day maturity difference will allow closer plantings where cross-pollination is a concern.
