Are you having trouble growing corn? What are some corn growing mistakes. Some growers do not soil prep the gardening area for corn. Corn is a heavy feeder. When the plants don’t get enough nutrition the corn plants will struggle. Corn is a grass and grass needs lots of nitrogen. Weak germination is another problem to watch for. This will also affect the proper spacing. When this happens the plants my not be able to pollinate each other. Having weak pollination will result in having less corn or the corn will not be full of the kernel. Gardeners who underwater the corn plants will have issues with plants turning colors. This will put stress on the plants and the chances of getting a full ear of corn decreases. Corn plants must be vertical and staking the plants will keep them upright. This also helps with the pollination of the plants. Another issue is some gardeners pull the ear of corn too early. The silks must be brown before the corn is harvest.
