Zea mays
An exceptionally large sweet corn, Big Jim III Hybrid is a Sugary Enhanced (SE) variety that boasts superior holding qualities and an impressive size. It produces 18-row ears that are almost 22 cm long and 5 cm in diameter, and the plants grow to a height of 1-2 metres. Resistant to both rust and common dwarf mosaic, this hybrid is a high-performing and reliable choice for a bountiful harvest.
What you need to know to Plant & Grow
For a successful crop, plant sweet corn only when the soil has warmed to 18°C.
Planting: To ensure proper pollination, plant at least 3 to 4 rows. When planting in rows, space seeds 10-15 cm apart, later thinning to 20-30 cm apart. Rows should be spaced 55-75 cm apart. Alternatively, corn can be planted with 3 to 4 seeds per hill, with hills spaced 30 cm apart. Germination occurs in approximately 10 days.
Care: Work a good general vegetable fertilizer into the soil at planting, keep weeds under control, and ensure the soil is evenly watered throughout the season. Irrigation is essential.
Approx. 100-125 seeds/pkt
