The much loved African, Asian, Latino, Indian & Middle Eastern Corn, also known as Maize. Can be boiled or roasted the traditional way to get that flavour you love. This is not your regular Australia yellow sweet corn. It has much tougher kernels, and is mostly eaten in places such as Africa, Asia, India and Latin America. Maize can also be ground into cornmeal for use in a variety of dishes and to bake many staple foods. The longer you leave the cobs to mature on the plant the harder the kernels become. If you want to enjoy them fresh, it is best to eat within 24 hours of harvesting.
Rich in vitamins A, C, and E.
Seeds in Pack: Choose from 100, 1000 or 10,000 seeds
Growing Information:
For the best germination rate, soak seeds overnight before sowing. Plant them directly into the soil where they are to grow, in a sunny position. Create a 15mm hole, sow 2-3 seeds per hole, cover with soil and keep moist until germination. When they germinate thin them out to the strongest seedling. So plants can easily pollinate one another, it is best to grow atleast 10 plants, spaced 20-30cm and in multiple rows, rather than one long row. Ensure your soil is fertile with a good moisture holding ability. Simply add some animal manure, compost or fertiliser to improve your soil.
