If Rupert keeps this up, he'll have to host a sequel to the documentary "King Corn". Maybe call it Queen Corn.

That corn looks pretty good there. Way better than most "hydroponic" corn I've seen. Did you give it any help on the pollination being such a small grouping of corn?

I give the stems a gentle shake each time I go past TCL...

Unfortunately it has rained non-stop since they flowered... and I'm worried that most of the pollen may have been washed away... :(

Trout fed like piranas the last couple of days.... tank temp back to under 21 degrees thanks to a southerly change, water change... and a few nice clear crisp nights...

Feeling confident about getting them through the rest of summer/autumn... :wink:

Hey Rupe. What variety of corn is that? It looks great...however it's the shortest corn I've ever seen. :roll: I have corn we grow for dairy cows and it's usually 10-12 feet tall! :wink:
