Picked some of our corn today. The further left you go is where we ran out of compost.

    It’s a pretty good example of a few things.

    Starting from left.

    Ear 1 & 2 lack of fertility early on.

    Ear 3 severe pollination issues - no fertility problems.

    Ear 4 and 5 - ran out of fertility around tasseling.

    Ear 6 moderate pollination issues - looks like the plant germinated late.

    Ear 7 is immature

    Ear 8 - tip back - either genetic or linked to planting density/light levels.

    Ear 9 - on the edge with full light and adequate nutrition.

      This reminds me of those cookie diagrams showing too much salt and too little flour
