Default Re: Growing corn in your lawn?

Well, this was an abysmal failure! It pretty much died out, and now the fall pumpkin vines are running rampant through there. I still have a pound of Silver King sealed up to use next year. I'll get it going in homemade bio pots and transplant out early.

I will be putting another raised bed in there next year, so I'll go that route. Since the soil will be loose and likely to let the corn blow over, I'm designing a horizontal lattice frame support that will install about three feet up, to stabilize the plants. They'll grow up though the lattice, and it should keep them from blowing over.
