Greg, a side note to you, I just found Hoss University and it is AMAZING!! Far beyond what I expected and incredibly complete. You have done an amazing job! I know that takes a team and a lot of man hours and I can’t thank you enough for what you all are doing for us who want and need to grow our own food as well as helping the good ‘ol USA As well! THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The old goat 🐐is left of the hatchet. I grew your quad sweet corn last year and it turned out great. I also like cream corn. The ears were long and full. I think it was the best corn that I had ever grown. Thanks for the video
Praise the Lord I'm just rolling on the floor laughing🤣 "Home Depot" that's probably where I got those last seeds from I didn't have any talent they were dads last year but I'm gonna try again this year hopefully with your help I'll have some corn.
Yes I found the OLD GOAT, up on the left corner shelf left of the hatchet. My great uncle had one of those double hopper corn planters, I just figured corn seed was in both hoppers. INTERESTING!! We way way upstate New York by the St Lawrence River ALWAYS grew Silver Queen sweet corn.
He’s hard to see, but I think the old goat is on the top shelf behind Mr. Hoss to the left of the axe🪓 Great show. Love you guys. I grew the sour gherkin last year. They did great. Just like cucumbers. Very fine vines. They kind of took over the space. They were fun, but you only need so many of those.
Take them corn ear worms, if you get them, and take them fishing. Bass love them! Also, Lisa says stop adding new seeds because she's spending too much money! Great show yall.
I usually grow peaches and cream sweet corn, but decided to try the incredible variety last year. I grew from seed I bought from Hoss Tools, it is now my family's favorite variety so far. I'll be glad when it's warm enough up here in south central Kentucky to plant.
Our Peaches n Cream is on 40 to 42 inch centers. We don’t have any weed problem. I’ve got a soil thermometer and rarely use it. Pour the nitrogen and water to corn. The only problem is white flies are attracted to Nitrogen. Thanks for the information!
Great show! I love growing sweet corn, one of my favorites, in fact i plant twice to get a early fall harvest, nothing like eating fresh sweet corn! Oh i see the old goat behind Greg on the third shelf, he definitely gets around.
Corn my best crop to grow and to eat. The 4 type's in my book is Corn on the cob, cream corn, whole kernel corn, and popcorn Whether it be field or sweet I love it. And great show with Bushels of info. Old goat top shelf behind Hoss by bag
Zone 8 here … planting the ALTO which is an F1 and 75% se 25% sh2 and gonna plant the peaches and cream but here in south Alabama its saying 27,23 and 32 degrees for the weekend then back to normal so i just could bring myself to plant it this week . So Monday Corn Planting is my Agenda 😂

Please in future videos - please get the microphone CLOSER to you. I have our volume up the highest possible and can still hardly hear you. All other videos are just fine. Thank you for considering this request because your content is very important for gardeners. Judi
Great show! Very much enjoy watching and learning. Just as a reference for raised bed gardeners like me, I have beds that are 4 x 24 ft x 12". I planted one bed last year, 3 rows, 1 ft. apart and 8" spacing and did very well with the Temptress corn. We had well over a 100 very nice and full ears. Pre-plant fertilized with the Complete Organic Fertilizer and when the stalks were about knee high, I alternated fish emulsion and 20-20-20 weekly. Also gave one good shot of the Chilean Nitrate. So, it is possible to grow corn in a raise bed. The ole goat is on the second shelf by the black fertilizer bag behind Mr. Greg.
That Mexican Sour gherkins looks like a cucamelon. Jess from Roots and Refuge has grown them and they are vigorous growers. Will take over a trellis and anything near by.
I learned my best lesson from Greg 3 years ago. I had great results. I am looking forward to growing this summer. You guys look great 👍 I found the old goat on the 3rd shelf behind Greg.
I tried peaches and cream last year.. used plentiful nitrogen and they did well.. was my first successful year growing corn.. Old 🐐 is over by the black fertilizer bag on the shelf ith the hand axe.
I've grown Mexican gerkin. They were slow to put on, but once they started I had lots on the plants. They taxes like a true gerkin cucumber! They're awesome. The vine does get pretty long. I think it syphilis be good in a hanging basket on the sunny side of your house and string long ways.
I have trouble with corn because of deer eating it but I want to try some this year. My neighbor gave me some blue lake climbing beans last year and I liked them so definitely want to plant them this year
How did you guys fare from last night's freeze? It got to 12 here in the GA mountains and I've never been so anxious over a damn onion in my life. So far my crop didn't take as much damage, but I unloaded all my hot compost around my row boarders and plastic tarped everything.
Old Goat hanging out in the stirrup hoe over Greg's right shoulder! We're looking at 27 tonight (Fri), with a touch of snow, and 21 tomorrow night. Luckily I've only got onions and English peas in the ground, except for a few brassica stragglers still going. It's gonna be rough. Ok, so now I'm straight......Peru is in Central America and Christopher Hoss discovered corn and brought it over on the Mayflower. It's insightful info like this that keeps me coming back every week! I did some experiments with Three Sisters plantings years ago, and had some success. If I was limited in space I might try it again, but I've gotten better yields on all three plants growing separately. Pollination on the corn can be an issue if you plant in "hills" like the old timers and Native Americans did (and bury a fish in each hill). I grew sweet corn, a pole bean, and yellow summer squash when I did it. Thanks for another great show, and getting me fired up about corn! I'm almost out of last year's!!
Great topic love the info, but when you came time to tell about planting zones you forgot zone 10 again, can we not grow corn down here this far south just curious or can we grow it year round ,thanks and keep up the good videos
Great information on corn. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge to the rest of us!!😊 The Old Goat is on the shelf behind Mr. Greg Hoss, next to the organic fertilizer bag.
Thanks for helping us that LOOOOOOVE corn! My question, I was told years ago to spray mineral oil on the little silks when they start making to keep earworms out. What do you think? God bless
Informative. I was hoping you all would have put out information about this radical random freeze and wind about to happen. Particularly what to do to protect our already planted seedlings. Maybe a Friday what to do short. I am so protective of these onions. After all please give advice
We are not doing anything special for onions. Onions are pretty cold tolerant. If you have potatoes sprouting, hill and cover with soil. We will be covering our squash and cucumbers seedlings. Our corn is just sprouting and too much to cover. All our tomatoes, flowers and watermelons are still in the greenhouse. If you can cover, it would be best.
Hello again Mr. Hoss! Have you tried the rattlesnake bean? I want to try it this year, I have half a ziplock bag full! 😂 just don’t know if they are good or not. Thank you kindly.
Cold spell here Northeast Florida Saturday 36°I have my green beans cucumbers squash and Zucchini hosstools seeds of course 36° is that warrant to cover up anything
I don’t know why I can never get good corn!?😂 one year though…I planted it in a fresh dug block and left sod in the soil and it was the tallest corn I’d ever grown .
I planted corn first time last year, it did well except we had 2 different wind storms and when it got close to harvesting , it rained a lot we had a black squirrelly come and feast on the rest of the Cobbs. So we got very few ears. What we did get were good eating. Nancy from nebraska
Mr. Hoss hello! I have a question….? Is a broad fork worth its use if you are a no till gardener, for the price I’m really skeptical? I garden on about a half of an acre, I silo tarp it all winter every year, I can put my hand in the soil up to my elbow! However I’m curious if you think I need a broad fork? Also I’ve looked at a few of your tools I’d like to use one day when my budget allows, which do you think would work out for the no till gardener?? Thanks Mr. Hoss many blessings to you and the Mrs’s😇
@@mo.brushape2063 isn’t that what a pitch fork is for, that’s what I use… a broad fork is supposed to be used to turn soil, as roto tillers push soil nutrient downward and disrupts the life of earth worms.
I did 2 sister last year. I did your Temptress and rattlesnake pole beans. Corn did great and beans did ok but not super prolific. I would suggest to def try it. I will be doing 3 sisters this year for s@&t and giggles.🤣😂
Mr and Moma Hoss a great information video on corn. Thank you! I want to grow some peanut with my corn and you all mention 30" to 36" space wide between each row and plant corn seed 6" apart in 20' x 20' square. How close or away from the corn would you plant the peanuts?
I have a question Greg what you think about planting double rows on each row. I have a 30x30 I planted double on three raised bed rows and planing on planting three more double rows on three more raised bed rows.
so in reference to the 3 sisters-I thought that growing beans used the nitrogen themselves while growing, then after they died provided nitrogen to the soil from the roots, assuming you are leaving the roots -- is that not true?
So far honey select is by far my favorite type of corn

How much chiliian nitrate would it take to properly fertilize corn on a 40 x 30 plot using the 2 gallon injector

Mexican sour gerkins grow great in a container. I use an old tomato cage to grow them on. We also eat them raw and pickled.

plant sweet first the wait 2-3 weeks and plant field.

The cucamelon vine gets really large and the fruit is bitter, IMO
I was wondering if the microwave would kill the nutrients in foods? I've wondered about that for years. Does anyone know? GOD bless
Any method of heating can destroy some nutrients. Just depends on how long you are cooking the foods.
Is it safe for me to plant my corn two weeks after you guys; I'm in zone 7b... curious thanks guys!
yes, it should be
Natives Mr. Hoss. The Native Americans saved the Europeans from starving the first year that they came.
so in reference to the 3 sisters-I thought that growing beans used the nitrogen themselves while growing, then after they died provided nitrogen to the soil from the roots, assuming you are leaving the roots -- is that not true?
We have never tried this and not exactly sure how does this fixed nitrogen would become available to other plants, in what quantities and when?
