Corn - Argent - white The Corn Sweet Argent (White), 'Zea mays var rugosa (Hybrid)', is the best tasting white sweet corn there is. Successive plantings in two week intervals will produce a much longer cropping season. Argent is a white sweet corn with superb sweet, creamy flavor and excellent cultivation traits. Corn is usually ready 3 weeks after silks appear. Argent sweet corn adapts well to cool soils and has a high tolerance ot Stewart's Wilt and Northern Corn Leaf Blight. In the deep south, this can be as early as February. It is unsurpassed in eating quality. Harvest the ears when the husks are dark green and the silks are brown but not brittle. Plant in the spring, a week or two after the last spring frost or when the soil is warm. Corn prefers a deep, rich well drained soil. |
