Rainbow corn produces cobs with kernels in every colour, perfect for decoration and popcorn. Here are the germination and growing instructions.
When to sow
Sow from April to June, once the soil has warmed up, directly in the final spot.
Planting depth
Plant 2–3 cm deep in rich soil with organic fertiliser, 20–25 cm apart in the row and 40–50 cm between rows. Keep it away from other corn to avoid cross-pollination.
Germination temperature
Ideally 20–25°C. Germination takes 5–10 days.
Watering
Keep the soil moist throughout the season, with good drainage.
Light and harvest
It needs full sun. Harvest the cobs once their husks have dried.
