The Silver Queen (late corn) didn't form ears. That hasn't happened as long as my hubby can remember, in all his years of growing corn.Kerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18362584475435433892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19868613.post-1157970866589695022006-09-11T11:34:00.000+01:002006-09-11T11:34:00.000+01:00Michael, I have never grown pumpkins before so I a...Michael, I have never grown pumpkins before so I am pleased with them. this is the third year I have grown sweet corn and I have never had a cob yet.<BR/> I have just had a couple of apples straight from my friends tree, so full of flavor, unlike the shop bought ones.clairesgardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17717145894222550969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19868613.post-1157813244976378692006-09-09T15:47:00.000+01:002006-09-09T15:47:00.000+01:00Hi Claire!It's incredible the things you've got pl...Hi Claire!<BR/>It's incredible the things you've got planted in that garden of yours! Fun to see your pumpkins yellowing up nicely. Ours are a bit behind yours are are still mostly green. Our corn is coming along but not quite ready. We been eating some from our neighbouring farms - Yum!<BR/>I can't wait for our Fall apples to be ready in a few weeks. There're always a real treat at this time of year. I just love to hear the 'crack' as you bite into them!Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10632365495050691161noreply@blogger.com
