I found a black variety that's supposed to be a good sweet corn from Baker Creek, fingers crossed since I've never grown corn here before.Phuonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07658691564062044986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2806765669512996094.post-81697888454965146572018-01-21T09:45:43.672-08:002018-01-21T09:45:43.672-08:00Hi Darren,

I had some amazingly sweet turnips a couple of years ago, but lately they have been a bit on the spicy side, probably because they were touched by too much heat.<br /><br />I'm so excited for the coming season as well and will be seeding my onions not much later than you are.
