    Congratulations to the newly weds! I was going to ask what you thought caused a better stand of corn. If it was the soil conditions, moisture levels, etc.? But you covered it, warmer temps and you got a better germination rate. I'll e-mail some pics of the Silvermine corn in a few days. We got here Thursday evening. I raked hay Friday for Pa, yesterday we cut 35 acres of hay, and today we baled about 20 acres of it. 15 more tomorrow and I'll have a reprieve from the hay. Pa's 92 and still baling hay commercially!

    Hey Joey, here in Randolph Co. we run a little cooler than y'all or Siler City or even Carthage for that matter, so if you plant early (mid-April) you'll be re-planting or it'll take forever to come up. Especially if you cover it a little too deep! My wife always says the key is for the ground to be warm enough for the seed to germinate. I agree with you on May (mid-May even) and it will be up in a few days. Beans are a different story........if you wait too late, the bugs will eat them up! Congrats to your son! Great video!

    Any tips? I planted Jimmy Red this year, 150 in a grid of rows on flat ground. I added mushroom compost and dusted twice in the season with pellet fertilizer. In total, maybe 20 are decent size. the rest are 4-5" so really small along with the stalks. We had decent rain too.

    • @Jtwes
      @Jtwes  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I hadn’t had a lot of experience planting like that. I do know corn needs a lot of nitrogen. If you used organic fertilizer it’s real slow to release. I would think the soil would need to be really rich so that corn can get what it needs right off. You can’t plant them real close together or they will be smaller. How was the color on the stalks.

    • @rigoniironworks
      @rigoniironworks 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@Jtwes Hmm, ok. The stalks were all green, but there were definitely some that were taller/larger than the majority. I'll roto till the soil next year and keep trying to improve. This was just a wild patch I tried on, hadn't grown anything on it before.

    Hi Joey , the jimmy red looks great good stand . Yea the warmer temperatures help. I always planted my corn at the end April and first of May. On the rise of the full moon or on the fall of the moon. My grandmother believed on planting on the moon phases. Tell the young couple congratulations . I don’t know when you cultivating but with the rain this weekend you done good. I fertilize my garden Friday with the rain and warmer temperatures this week I’ll be able to hear it growing L O L . Thanks for sharing. Have a good day..😎😎

    Joey I don’t know enough about gardening to be quoted, but the corn does look nice. Style points anyway. I don’t have an Agri Supply with in 700 miles, but the one in Greenville has sure been helpful. Same with Braden at Burch Store, nice folks. Was 33 degrees a couple mornings ago here in Yankees land. I’ve been to the cemetery today and paying my respects, might possibly do a little tractor “work” in a couple hours. Thanks for sharing and give my best to Wil and Megan.

    Brix is a measure of the sugar content. How long have you planted Jimmy Red and have you saved the seed since the beginning or do you buy seed from time to time? Looks like a good stand. Can't wait to see it at Harvest.

    Wow 12k subscribers!!! I am happy for you. It is kinda tricky when to plant. If it is a sweet corn I am selling to the market the later you plant the more trouble with worms. I can spray dipel on it or spinosad soap to keep them knocked back. I am a may 5th planter myself. That is a great stand of corn, I can't wait to see when you pick it.

  • @jvin248
    @jvin248 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The darker kernels like your Jimmy Red will have a higher %protein than the yellow/white varieties but less than blue heirloom corn.
    I waited much later to plant my corn this year and I'm expecting it to do better. Most big farms rush to beat the early spring weather with corn and then follow up with soybeans but flipping that order seems better as soybeans can handle cold rains that suddenly drop the ground temp from 55F to 40F if corn was trying to sprout (studies I saw dropped 15-20bu/ac when the corn fell below 55F ground temp).

    • @Jtwes

You know Joey my Great Uncle Albert Miller said it best "ain't nothing going to grow until you can sleep in your shirt tail at night." Just about every year I wind up having to do some replanting on my seed crops. I hope y'all have a great Memorial Day!
