Best Yellow Sweet Corn

[Txsteader]

Golden Bantam did well for us this spring. Good production, tender, great taste.

I'm wondering what other varieties might be worth trying next year. Any recommendations?

Well, for about the last 10 years,we've had Incredible. It was just as good frozen as on the cob. And it's good on the cob. But for the last 2 years it's been Honey Select. Oh mercy is that stuff GOOD! It tastes like you are slicing it off the cob to eat fresh even after it's been frozen for several months. It's that good. So sweet and tender. I highly recommend it.

I haven't grown sweet corn for a couple of years, but some of my favourites are:

Illini (for long season) was the best sweetest one I ever grew
Seneca
Northern Early Xtra Sweet (earliest)
Peaches and Cream

I am just on my second year of growing a garden after several years away from it and I grew silver queen this year, but I am looking for something else that grows good in Va. It was good fresh picked ealier in the summer,but it got it got tuff as leather soon after and I threw all of what I had frozzen into the compost pile after we cooked the first bag out of it.
I will be watching this site and thanks ahead of time for the info.
God Bless

Bodacious (hope that's spelled right!) is our favorite, we've grown it for the past 3 years. Ears are good size, just as good frozen as fresh.

i prefer to plant feild corn for green corn to boil instead of sweet corn. But thats just me.
