I'd rather grow tomatoes. My husband's father tried to grow corn once. Apparently it was such a disaster both brother in laws suggested against trying again lol
This seems like an interesting story! Do you know how it was a disaster?
I do not. I suspect it was some combination of the soil not being great and squirrels.
He hated the squirrels.
The squirrels remember this.
AH - squirrels can absolutely be disastrous to corn and other crops, I’m sure that’s why he hates them because it’s why I hate them too. They don’t even eat the food they destroy, they just dig around uprooting plants and seedlings and take single bites out of fruits and veggies.
They ate ALL my herb seedlings last year. Ignored the tomatoes, even the fruit. The rabbits go for the tomatoes. I also hate the squirrels and they know it. They taunt all cats that have ever lived here cause they're mean squirrels!
