Which kind of corn?

Which kind of corn do y'all like best.

I'm a toss up between Peaches and Cream or Ambrosia.

 

[TN Larry]

I like Ambrosia the best.

 

[Carlos Viagra]

I've never sewn any Ambrosia, never heard of it actually.

We always use peaches and cream.

Silver queen used to be my favorite. Seems the last couple of years what I've bought from the Amish hasn't been as good for some reason.

 

[backyardtndeer]

We typically plant peaches and cream. Don't think we have ever tried ambrosia.

I can tell you why… because it's probably field corn.. my Sunday school teacher came upon a buggy last spring, stopped in the middle of the road.. he sat there a minute wondering what was going on.. a few seconds later.. here's comes a Amish out of some farmers cornfield..,with all the roastneers he could carry.. flat out stealing.. and I promise you, he sat up on the side of the road selling silver queen..

Peaches and Cream
Also last couple years have got some Obsession. It was very good

They pick it too early!
Silver queen is all water till it starts to get starchy, almost too late is when it's best!

Truckers favorite is real good for this or roasting

 

[Popcorn]

Popcorn! Of course

mix 1 pkg of silver queen with one package of golden queen and plant at will, it's all good that way!

pretty much. the time window between milk and dough stage is really narrow. peaches and cream when the silk turns its ready.

i like to grow silver queen because the coons dont prefer it like peaches.

Same.

Ambrosia is bicolor. Somewhere deep in my memory i was told this is an indicator of something but that is all I recall.

 

[BPhunter]

No matter! Still comes out whole!

 

[backyardtndeer]

Too bad I didn't remember this about ambrosia when we were at the nursery, don't think they had it though. They were out of peaches and cream on Saturday, so I opted for bodacious. Similar days to harvest. Planted yesterday, first try, guess we will see.

We'll still have a couple more frosts in my area before mid-May.
(Most likely.)

The Amish around me pick silver queen too early, it's too watery and not meaty. I like silver queen best in late starchy stage!

Peaches and cream is a close second

On the other hand hickory king and truckers favorite are really good no -sweet corns also

Of course though POPCORN is a mainstay around here.

Yes

 

[jejeffrries71]

It does have a relatively short window of when it is at its best.

 

[Mud Creek]

Ambrosia hands down. I was raised on P&C and love it but Ambrosia blows it away imo.

 

[Jeff43]

Always Ambrosia

 

[eyeseeker]

Incredible

We' like having fresh corn for the 4th of July, should be ready right on time.

Nothing like fresh corn on the cob, slathered in a ton of butter!
