okay, tricked you sorry. it's an ornamental corn, but I figure you guys know everything except that I posted this somewhere else:)
okay, not a farmer here, so when I describe my corn, please don't laugh.
I'm growing Zea mays quadracolor and it's about 4' tall. Now putting out long 'strings' out the top and there are several places down the stalk where i see tassels. Are these going to be the ears? will this plant stop growing once the ears are ready? I grew it in my tropical bed and hope to grow it all summer. is that possible??
