>>Growing in Corn Fields<<

[Posted by: tristynhawk]
dude i have planted alot in cornfields i always just plant in the cornfield wait for the corn to get high enough for me to walk into without being seen.And the farmer uses all the lime and fert's to get your plants goin

way i do it is just get deep in corn field counting rows as i go then i just pull up a corn plant and place one of my ladies in the hole.

some of my best looking plants have come from crnfields just don't plant i sweet corn though because they harvest it early

[Posted by: SCARHOLE]
Last year I went in may after the farmer sprayed for weeds, they got resprayed in late june an all died. (10 clones Rip)

Id recomend not putting em all in the corn, put a few in the woods just in case.

A few thinks to keep in mind.
Corn ground can possibly have a premergent spray in the soil.
Some of the broadleaf premergent sprays will take down or severly stunt MJ.
If they are not using premegent sprays then they will be spraying after the corn is planted. (postemergent)
80-90 percent will be using glyphosate(active ingredient in RoundUp).
Usual pass is when corn is about 6" to 1' tall.
Second pass is right before canopy.(corn rows closing in). Or about 3' to 4'.
Which in my area is around last part of June to start of July.
So best bet is to wait till corn is around the 3' to 4' range.

Growing on somebody elses property opens up a whole lot of uncontrollable variables.
And uncontrolled variables lead to getting busted.
Be careful.......and always have a back plan if somebody notices them.
Good Luck

I have grown some beauts in corn. Although I have lost some beauts to weed killer and early harvest of corn before. I do not have a problem with corn however I have issues sometime about what goes on in the corn field.

[Posted by: Brick Top]
Over the years I have read of more people who attempted growing in corn fields losing their crops than having a successful grow and harvest, and I have read of two being busted.

I am not saying it cannot be done, but if you live in an area that is rural enough to have corn fields you should be able to find a better location to grow.

One question you always have to know the answer to is, when will your plants finish and when will the farmer harvest? If they are growing feed corn or corn that will be ground and used in various products, depending on location and conditions, it may remain in the fields long enough to complete a grow. If what they are growing will be in your local grocery store fresh veggy section this summer, that's a horse of a different color.

I grew around corn in my garden last yr, corn was done by Sept. and my girls were left exposed untill i harvested in early oct. Luckily they were small so they didnt stick out, but beware of harvest times..

[Plant Albinism]

"As in animals, albinism in plants is caused by lack of pigment. However, in plants the lack is fatal because the missing pigment is chlorophyll. Though not all mutations or unusual gene combinations are harmful. In fact, by watching for favorable abnormalities it has been possible to develop important new varieties of fruit, flowers and ornamental plants Not all plant abnormalities are due to mutations or unusual gene combinations since external causes can create abnormal appearances."
