2025 field work

[NWICY]

2.1" of rain between between midnight and 1. Round 2 started 10 minutes ago. Looks like a round 3 later today. I guess my fieldwork in the rice paddies will get delayed again.
30 miles east of Ames.

Ugh.

It’s got great flavor. Cooking it is a bearcat. Yellow or bi-color you can see the slight color change. White sweet corn looks the same freshly picked to fully cooked.

some of these people will roast you for boiling ANY sweet corn for more than 30 secs.

Not a bad days work

Would a plant like the be more likely to fall over with that many peppers hanging on it?

Do your balls hang lower the heavier they get?

High input growers run stakes and twine for plant support. This is expensive (labor) but it can really pay for itself

Beautiful fruit.
