Knee High
There's an old saying about corn that even amateur gardeners have heard. The saying goes, "Knee high by the fourth of July". Supposedly, if your corn is knee high by July 4th it will produce some good ears. I was watching the corn throughout Colorado and Nebraska on our recently visit to the Morrow's. In northeast Colorado, the corn (what there was of it) might have been knee high. In Nebraska, the farther east you went the taller the corn. The picture above was taken on the Morrow farm on July 3rd. I am showing that it truly was knee high by the fourth of July.
While this is not sweet corn, it is doing equally as well. Cliff, tell us when the sweet corn is ready - we'll be back.

Er, the corn, not your knee. *LOL*
Did you get those calf muscles from the Espresso Love? *grin*
Ralph, I warned you about exposing yourself on the internet. Now the ladies will be lined up outside of the house.
Yes, I'll call about the sweet corn. The first batch is about '2 weeks' off. Maybe it would fit into a trip???
Yummy!
