Got ten minutes to chill on the #coffeechain so I thought I'd start saving some sweetcorn for next year 😁

I've never saved sweet corn. Always bought hybrids. What type of sweet corn do you grow that you can save seeds from that are true to type? I grow a lot of corn and would like to try seed saving some.
I nicked a cob from the farm I keep my bees on so I've no idea what type it is.. 🤣
I just work on the idea if you keep saving the seed from one generation to the next eventually you'll have bred in the traits your looking for 👍🏻
Have you tried looking for a company that sells open pollinated seed ??
We have this company here in the #UK and I'm sure there's more out there.
I haven't specifically looked for open pollinated corn. I'll need to do some research. Thanks for sharing your link! We plant corn end of February here. I'd better get looking 🙂
