Super Sweet Corn is Not Sweet?
According to the determination, the sweetcorn of the super-Sweet Corn is sweet and has a sugar content of 18-20%. The sugar content of super-sweet corn grown by some people today has dropped below 10% and it does not feel sweet.
In order to increase the sugar content and quality of corn, it is important for growers to do a good job of segregation in addition to the organic fertilization for fertilization and the addition of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. Maize is a cross-pollination crop. Male pollen can fly hundreds of meters away from the wind. If the male pollen of ordinary corn falls onto the filaments of super-sweet maize female flowers, the resulting seeds cannot maintain the quality of the original variety. Sugar content will be significantly reduced.
Therefore, the land of super-sweet corn and the normal corn planting area must be more than 300 meters apart. Alternatively, the sowing date was different, and the difference was more than 10 days. The silking time of female flowers in super-sweet corn was staggered with that of ordinary male corn.
If ordinary corn is sporadically planted near the super-sweet corn plot and the flowering period is the same, the male tassels of the common maize should be pulled out when the super-sweet corn female flowers are spun.
