Vernonia Grown
Your corn may need more nitrogen
b y B ill Hansen
remove the suckers, or side shoots,
which grow around the base of the
corn stalk. Leave them alone. They do
not hurt the plant at all. In fact,
removing them will cause more harm
than good. Speaking of harm, we have
seen very few problems with insects
in our com here in Vernonia. Once in a
great while, we find a worm in an ear
of com, but the damage it causes is
slight. W e simply cut around the
damaged kernels and go ahead and
prepare the ears for the table. I would
rather do this than to implement a
spraying schedule. W hile you might
get the worm that caused the
damage, you would probably kill a
few* b e e s m t h e process/ I f you
absolutely must u s e ’an insecticide,
use it sparingly and quite late in the
evening, after the bees have gone
B y now, your com should be about
knee high, unless you planted one of
the very early varieties. Y ou need to
watch your corn carefully from now
until you start picking! I f your com
has exhausted the available supply of
nitrogen in the soil, it will surely let
you know by its unhealthy yellow-
green color. I f you need to add
nitrogen, you should consider adding
a balanced garden fertilizer, rather
than straight nitrogen. This way, you
are taking care of all your plant needs
and avoiding the possibility of
prolonging the growth phase. You
want your com to begin to make ears
as soon as possible. A s r wjth
tomatoes, over fertilizing will often
delay your crop.
People will often advise you to
Extension agent visits Vernonia
9:30 am -12 noon at the W est Oregon
Electric Co-op. The afternoons will be
reserved for farm visits. I f you would
like more information call 397-3462.
. Chip Bubl, the Columbia County
Extension Agent, will be in Vernonia
every other week starting Friday,
March 27. He can be reached from
back to the hive.
Knowing when to harvest com is
another problem. In the late summer,
I find myself out in the garden feeling
and squeezing the ears in an effort to
determine when to pick. First of all,
the com silk should be completely
brown, in the center as well as on the
outside. (Did you know that each
strand of silk is attached. to one
kernel?) The ear itself should be full
and should fill out the husk so that
there is no give when you squeeze it.
O f course the sure-fire way is to
carefully peel back the husk and take
a peek. D o this only if you Eire pretty
sure the com is about ready to pick,
as you can’t help but damage some of
the kernels.
One last suggestion. This year, pick
sm ear and eat it right out in the
garden. I f you haven’t done this, you
are in for a real surprise-and a treat!
