Planting Instructions

  • Spring/Early Summer: Plant after the last frost, when the soil has warmed to about 60°F (15°C).

Planting Details

  • Spacing: Space seeds 6-8 inches apart in rows 18-24 inches apart.
  • Light: Requires full sun for optimal growth and kernel development.

Watering and Care

  • Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy, especially during the flowering and ear development stages.
  • Fertilizing: Apply a balanced fertilizer at planting and consider side-dressing with compost when plants reach about 12 inches tall.
  • Pollination: Popcorn should be planted in blocks for better pollination, as it is wind-pollinated.

Harvesting

  • Harvest Method: Harvest when kernels are hard, and the husks turn brown. Test by biting into a kernel (it should be firm, not soft).
