I’ve searched for 2 years of when to pick the corn. This is the only video that’s actually told me everything from signs to how to check. You must be a teacher during your time off from gardening. If not, then you’re still very good at instructing in the correct manner!

Out of all the videos I have watched this is the only one that talked about how to know if it is overripe. Thank you!

I searched for how to tell if popcorn is mature and all i got was popcorn ceiling asbestos crap

Thanks for the info. Growing our first corn and had no idea when to pick.

I am growing corn for the first time this summer. I was absolutely clueless when to harvest. Thank you so much for being so precise!

Thank you for the best time to harvest video and not a waste of time!

Another tip is to remember to shake the corn stalk so that pollen falls down to the silk and pollinate the corn

Thanks for telling me how to harvest corn

This was very thorough and helpful! I did not know that there was such a short window of opportunity to harvest corn at the right stage or about feeling the tip. Great advice. Thanks!

Your window depends on what variety you planted so this info is not quite accurate. The variety I grow has a week to 10 day window and I have almost no issues with overripness. I know society loves generalities but a 3 day window for all corn is not reality.

I am growing corn for the first time, now I have an idea what to look for. Hopefully I won't miss that window period, thank you.

Just retired and am starting gardening. Figured corn would be a good choice, seems like a beginners crop. Planted 48 seeds, 2 per hole, and got rid of the weakest one from each hole when they were around 4" tall. So, I have 24 stalks producing and needed to know when to harvest. Thanks for this video.

I am within a week for a few of my corn. Almost gave up this year but I'm super ready to pick my corn😃

Short and to the point! Very helpful, thanks very much!!

Thank you. This is the perfect video I was looking for. You showed all the stages for harvesting with clear pictures.Thank you again.

Nice video. Brief and straight to the point. Thank you

I like your video, straight and to the point. A real professional job, thanks!

Very helpful video! Also posted on my birthday. Thank you! 🌽

Great short and concise video, but you should mention that this is for sweet corn. I realize most people think of sweet corn when you say corn, but there are other types of corn. :)

Growing my first corn this year I have some almost ready to harvest this helped alot TY

Excellent video. This my first try at growing corn and this is exactly what I needed to decide when to harvest.

Thank you for such a lovely and informative video.

Awesome, got to check mine right now. Dallas, Tx area. Thanks for such a detailed explanation.

You are spot on with this video. That's exactly how my grandpa taught us on his farm. We usually had our corn feast on the evening that the corn was first ready. Grandma would boil the salted water, and then once the water neared the boil, grandpa would pick the ears for all the family to eat, and the corn went from the stalk to the pot within 5 minutes. I also remember eating some corn raw.

Delicious isn't it? And some wonderful memories!

Just subscribed. I enjoyed your presentation, no waffle just straight facts. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.

All the other corn harvesting guides mislead me, and I picked too early! I knew I should have started here!

Thank you for doing this video. We grew corn for the first time and the first two cobs were awesome the next 4 tasted starchy. Learning curve!

Excellent tips! Thank you

Great informative video. Thanks!

Good information. Precise and spot on.

Thank you very much that was exactly what i needed to know. Mine is brown with no substance coming out. The silk is brown and i waited until it was brown all the way up. It never got brittle, so i didn't think it was ready. My first ear and i screwed up.

Very helpful, thank you! I planted corn on a whim and it did way better than I expected 😅

Great video..so clear and easy to understand

Really good video straight to the point. Thank you.

Thank you. This is sooo helpful!👍

Great info. I picked a few early today.1 more week they' like be ready.

beautifully done!

Just what I needed!! Thanks so much!😊🌽

Thank you for this.

Good video! About to go check

Thanks for the tips!

Thank you 🙏. Great video

Thank you so much for this! 💕 I've been a Florida grower for about 6 yrs now but this is my first year trying corn out.. I was worried because the silks were starting to dry out pretty good, but now I know this is totally normal and I'm getting excited for harvesting time! Thank you again! It's really great to meet you and I really appreciate you sharing this info with us! 🌱 There is nothing like picking your own fresh vegetables, straight from the garden. Mother nature has so many possibilities 🌻🦋

Perfect. I watched a video from a more prominent censortuber and was still left wondering if my corn was ripe. That nice close up of the rounded top and specificity about everything makes me confident. Confident that I still have no ripe corn yet :

AWESOME TIPS!

Great video...

@@uglytruth4467 depends on the type of corn. You will usually get one big defined cob on sweet corn with a smaller secondary cob but there are strains of corn that have 5, 8, 10 and more! The world record for most cobs on a corn plant if I remember correctly is 29.

im going my first corn

Great job on this and other vids you have done. God bless jesus.

Thank you boo bear

I agree you can always tell when it’s ready by giving the tip a good firm squeeze

I'm in Australia and have seen earworm holes on some of my ears... how do i save the ones who have the worm? I've protected the majority but want to save cobs who got a worm... cheers mate.

Great video...i live in southern California.. The weather inland is mostly dry in mid June. Planting corn then, will it b to hot in July or august? Or plant it in late August..its hot till early October here?

In central Arkansas, we're regularly in the upper 90s and corn does just fine in the heat. As long as you can keep them irrigated, I think you could plant about anytime.

How many do you usually get from 1 plant?

I followed your tips, JUST NOW as was walking in the corn garden. Seems that the tip you gave about the tip that needs to be hard and solid worked really well, although not all of them were far away from the main stem..... Strange...

Different varieties could have slightly different growth habits, too.

What do you do with the original corn plant once you have harvested?

@thebeginnersgarden

Usually I chop it and leave it in place to cover and break down into the soil. ("chop and drop.") Sometimes I'll take it out and compost it separately if I have another crop going in its place soon.

about how long does it take to get to the ready stage? just asking if u know plz reply ASAP! :]

It depends on the days to maturity on the particular variety you're growing. But after I start to see the silks brown, it's just a few days away. Watch them carefully.

I’m sure by now you’ve found the answer to your question, but for others that may see this the corn is usually ready to pick about 20 days after silks first appear. Still follow the checks she described in the video to be certain.

Something is getting my corn. We have a fence around the garden, so I think its birds...the ears are shredded and the kernels are picked off the cob. Any ideas??

Should still be fine.

The way u pick the corn can damage the plant. Pull it away from the main stalk, twist it. If it’s ripe, it will come off easily

Once you harvest the corn, here's the absolute best way to cut it off the cob: kzread.info/dash/bejne/nWSWqtyigqTSds4.html

My kernels are white and not yellow

@thebeginnersgarden

Some varieties of corn have white kernels. The same pressure test will apply. But if your corn is a yellow variety, the kernels will be white when they are very young. Once they start to fill out, the color either changes to yellow or stays white.

Well done, love the way you explain how to. Corn has to be one of my favorite vegetables. Check out my KZread channel. Love to here some feedback from you.
