The Corn Sweet Bodacious, 'Zea mays var rugosa (Hybrid)', is a gourmet sweet corn with exceptional flavor. It was developed for the home garden and the fresh corn market. Corn is much better home grown than bought from a store. Bodacious is a truly homozygous sugary enhanced hybrid. Its wide adaptability in northern latitudes and consistent performance have made Bodacious the most popular variety in its class.
Plant in the spring, a week or two after the last spring frost or when the soil is warm. In the deep south, this can be as early as February. Successive plantings in two week intervals will produce a much longer cropping season. Corn prefers a deep, rich well drained soil. Harvest the ears when the husks are dark green and the silks are brown but not brittle. Corn is usually ready 3 weeks after silks appear.
