Red Corn

My "Red Corn" has started to loose a lot of its green in the leaves and stalk so, i am assuming that its time to harvest.
They only produced one ear of corn per stalk. I guess that is normal.
I planted them this year as a test to see how well they might grow in my garden next to the house.
Next year i will use more of them on the ends to act as a wind screen.
Another odd thing is, i feel like they didn't root very deep.

I pulled my first one off last night. I didn't take a picture with it next to anything for a size comparison but its only about 6 inches long.

I haven't tasted it yet so i cant comment on its flavor. I'll have to get back to you on the flavor.

As it started in 2009

This was the first year i decided to try and grow corn. i live in a townhouse SO.... i have to be creative on where i can plant things. Luckily i am the end unit so i do have a very small side yard. That is now a raised box garden 3.5 feet by 16ish feet. Well back to my point. Corn. I read that corn can make a great barrier from the wind. So im growing some this year as a test. All goes well, next year they will be my garden end caps.

I had already started the garden this year and then i heard about the corn trick.

This is a Sarah Black tomato plant.
