A picture of our corn planter. We can plant 12 rows spaces 30 inches apart.
Another picture of our planter. The big tank holds fertilizer, plant nutrients, we apply all the fertilizer at planting time spaces 2 inches the side and 2 inches below the seed. Putting this much fertilizer any closer to the seed causes problems for the seed's germination, when the seed transforms to a plant.
Here the corn is spiking through the soil.
Here the corn plant is dug up showing how the roots are developing. It's still living off the seed until the roots and leaves become better developed.
Here is what our corn looked like a couple of weeks ago. It's growing very nicely despite the cold, wet weather we have been having lately.
