Add manure (in the fall) or rich compost a few weeks before planting. Add a high-nitrogen organic fertilizer every few weeks until tassels form. Keep well weeded, especially when they are seedlings and well-watered, 1 inch a week especially during the silk stage.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"aircall-extension-app\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"aircall-extension-app\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pinetree Garden Seeds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":5281066820,"sku":"11301","price":4.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/6282\/files\/sugar-buns-corn-f1-hybrid-72-days-se-vegetables-pinetree-garden-seeds-657.jpg?v=1702409811","url":"https:\/\/www.superseeds.mom\/products\/sugar-buns-corn-72-days","provider":"Pinetree Garden Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
