I'd wait till corn s at least16-18'' high for most farmers will run a cultivator over corn while it's short enough to pass over it, in order to lossen up the soil to promote stronger stalks! (I"m an ex-farmer) of corn, and found growing reefer is more profitable and easier. corn fields are excellent to grow in though!if i was gonna throw clones in a cornfeild could the farmer or somebody spot them? and would i have to lay down my own soil?
the only way choppers are gonna find them is if you clump them together all in one tight little spot, spead them out and grow right in the soil that corn grows in. pesticides fade after a while and will not hurt your crop. the pesticides they use works great on weeds for the corn to grow without being choke out by weeds, but after the corn gets high enough 2-3 ft tall and a couple of rains on it, the pesticide is so duluted, it doesn't harm NOTHING! do what you want, but cornfiels are excellent to grow in, I've got several out in them this year too.ok thanks, ill do some thinking
Actually, you are correct. But why take the chance of planting in a spot where herbicides have collected enough to kill your plant?the only way choppers are gonna find them is if you clump them together all in one tight little spot, spead them out and grow right in the soil that corn grows in. pesticides fade after a while and will not hurt your crop. the pesticides they use works great on weeds for the corn to grow without being choke out by weeds, but after the corn gets high enough 2-3 ft tall and a couple of rains on it, the pesticide is so duluted, it doesn't harm NOTHING! do what you want, but cornfiels are excellent to grow in, I've got several out in them this year too.
didnt kill mine and it was sprayed and planted memorial day weekend. corn's knee high now and I have had them out for a week and looking great so far! I do this ever year, I just don't get crazy putting a zillion of them out there. 8-10 plants.Actually, you are correct.

there you go!!!! you absolutely right! the same freaking weeds will come up again later on this year and next year too!simply put i did some research how it works, the herbicide just keeps the weeds from growing untill the corn has an established root system and the weeds cant get a foot hold in the ground while * the corns root system is growing
