Default Re: The Gardening Thread

I've always wanted to try corn but heard that it was hit or miss. Well last year, I just grabbed a packet of seeds at the supermarket seed rack, sorry can't even remember the variety, and sowed a 10 x 10 patch.

Got a great crop of some of the best tasting corn I've ever had. And then had the cornstalks for some Halloween/Fall type arrangements around my lamp post etc.

I've also done potatoes before with great success. These are a lot of fun at harvest time when you stick the pitch fork into the ground and pry up the soil to find a nice bounty of taters.
