Cool,

We just plant about a 10' square of it in with our sweetcorn. It does surprisingly well, getting at least 2ears to a stock.

Wouldn't one of those hand crank corn shuckers work?


My doctor suggested I start doing squats, so I moved all the beer to the bottom shelf of my fridge.

Shelled a lot of popcorn as a kid. Toughens your fingers right up. I recall the whole floor upstairs covered in newspapers with ears or popcorn covering that so it'll dry.

Same farm in Illinois grew green beans as well as sweet corn also would raise 120 acres of popcorn. Theit harvest didn't give them a good yield but made a heck of a dove feeding ground. 20 minutes would yield you a 5 gallon bucket of popcorn on the cob.

I grow popcorn every year. Easy to grow. I use old hand corn sheller to shell the popcorn. Not so hard on the thumbs.

I grew a rows in parents garden for few years when was kid. One year I had it next to couple rows Indian corn and it came out variegated colors. It popped but not as good as straight white. I know I got blisters on my thumbs shucking it.
Now I like the yellow popcorn comes from Iowa.

Yea, I don't eat the stuff. Wife does and makes half/cup of kernels at a time which fills a big bowl. That'll hold her for the year.

We give some to the neighbors to, that's what we're keeping.
