    I remember when you first plowed that for potatoes. I'll be interested to see how that corn mix grows together. Glass Gem is kind of a popcorn, I grew it next to my Hickory King last year. In my case it was a much smaller plant with much smaller ears. Hope it works out for you. Love that you show us different things and then how they turn out.

    Good morning Brother!
    I planted some of that Glass Gem corn up here this year. Just a few kernels to see what it will do in our northern climate.
    You folks have a good day.

    I really enjoyed the video ! I really want to come down and help with silage this year. I know the kids have been bugging me all the time to go back down . Liv is always saying her and Alaska is just driving down for the weekend lol . I might end up having to get seed from you some time since I only did a few mounds and the wind the other day did a lot of damage . God has got me on a crazy journey of me healing myself and gardening is kinda being put to the side . I'm so amazed how fast he works !!! I want to be able to tell you the story in person . Thanks for sharing and have a great day !

    I have always heard plant your corn early enough to yield as long as it is knee high by the fourth of July it will have a fighting chance

    • @McGieHomesteadAdventures

      Depends on where you’re located. Here in Tennessee I have planted as late as July 20 and I was fine.

      Will the green clover not heat up and kill the germation of the seed most of the time it will heat up the soil Good Luck

    When planting corn on a hillside, does the corn grow on the lower or the upper side of the Corn stock?. Thanks for the video

  • @duncand5148

    Interesting opinion. I find just the opposite. After I turn in my clover, rye, or any other cover/green manure crop, I like let the ground lay to grow out the weeds for a couple of rounds; LIGHTLY disking between rounds. Sometimes, depending on soil conditions, I’ll go over it with a rotary hoe (instead of disking) to knock the weeds out. Doing it this way for over the last 15 years , my weed seed bank is LOW ⬇️. I have had people say no way and that I have to be using a herbicide. Well I don’t. I couldn’t anyway. I grow predominantly conventional hybrid corn and some OP corn. Any way, by doing it this way and through frequent LIGHT cultivations, my fields are CLEAN. The key is not to go deeper than 3” during the entire growing season after plowing. Even during wet years, when I can’t cultivate regularly, weeds are not a huge problem for me. 👍🏽

    • @McGieHomesteadAdventures
      @McGieHomesteadAdventures  3 місяці тому +2

      I can definitely understand that. I don’t have many years of working this particular field. Last spring’s potato crop was the first time I cropped it. And in less than a year I’ve grown the potato crop, a full stand of soybeans to maturity a full crop of crimson clover to full bloom and now corn! That’s what I call intensive!!!😂😂😂
