Next year, though, I will definitely be planting them elsewhere in the garden!Danihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04020970904311512357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3375887793985280500.post-41790171010709699002010-12-10T15:27:19.882+02:002010-12-10T15:27:19.882+02:00That is the most interesting way that you are grow...That is the most interesting way that you are growing your corn, I have never seen it grown in that manner before. Hopefully they will manage the wind and grow up to give you lots of nice sweet corn. Do you have a long enough season that you can re-plant any damaged crops if need be? It seem like that is all we do some years is re-plant, re-plant, and re-plant.:)Mr. H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04576034751522467377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3375887793985280500.post-32131624290926768332010-12-10T07:11:16.031+02:002010-12-10T07:11:16.031+02:00Leigh - thanks for the compliments :-) What do yo...Leigh - thanks for the compliments :-) What do you do with the bags?Danihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04020970904311512357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3375887793985280500.post-19552907013862556122010-12-10T01:51:19.012+02:002010-12-10T01:51:19.012+02:00What a clever idea withe the net bags.
