Sweetcorn Pot of Gold F1

Smaller 1.5m (5ft) plants, perfect for more exposed sites where weather can damage your plants. Very sweet and tender kernel, with a lovely corn flavour. Smaller, fatter cobs, perfect to fit in a pan without struggling to cut the cob.

Sow in a propagator on a windowsill or one seed per 5cm (2in) pot in a greenhouse using a good quality compost. Cover seeds with 2.5cm (1in) of compost.

Grow on, carefully planting out when the risk of frost has passed, allowing 40cm (16in) between plants each way in a block pattern to aid pollination, or 4-5 plants per 70-80cm (28-32in) container. Can also be sown directly outside in late may, 2 seeds per station, thinning to the strongest seedling.

HARVESTING;- August; September
