Default Blue Java!!!

I got a Blue Java corn from PR Giant on May 13, 2019. This was my first experience with a corn and was careful to make a good draining potting mix and not water too much but ended up watering a bit too much anyway.

The corn did very little except push out a pathetic small white pencil of a cigar that proceeded to choke and turn black. I was worried after seeing so many posts where PRGiant's corns bust out leaves within a couple days! After about two weeks or so I decided to remove the top layer of the corn and the next day a nice looking leaf emerged! Then it was off to the races with nice daily improvement and growth!

I will put this one in my new patch at the end of June after it gets a couple more leaves. Can't wait to see those blue bananas in late 2020!!
