ORGANIC AND OPEN POLLINATED SEEDS

Zea mays

Sweet Corn, also called corn on the cob, is a warm-season crop known for its rows of golden-yellow, tender kernels packed with natural sweetness. Best enjoyed fresh, these juicy kernels can be boiled, grilled, or roasted with butter for a classic taste. Like peas, the sugars in sweet corn turn starchy after harvest, so the fresher it is, the sweeter it tastes.

Sweet Corn is typically ready to harvest in 70-90 days when the silks at the top turn brown and dry, and kernels release a milky liquid when pressed. The crop thrives in full sun and fertile, well-drained loamy soils across India, making it ideal for home gardens, terrace gardens, and organic farming. Plant in clusters to increase chances of pollination. Farmers and gardeners love it for its quick growth, high yield, and versatility in Indian cooking—perfect for snacks, soups, curries, and street-style roasted corn.
