THE STORM

Now wouldn't you know it. Just when you think that your late corn is going to make it here comes a storm and lays it over. Most of the time in our area this is what always happens in the Aug. months. We always plant our corn in the middle of March we plant Ambrosia and Golden Queen.
When our corn comes in around the first week in July we pick it and then chop it down and replant for the fall.
This fall corn comes in around the first weekend of Oct. and yes it does make it. But most of the time a storm comes with high wind and knocks it down like what happened the other day. We try to stand it back up but sometimes if wont stand.
If you are like me you have seen so much corn that you about see it in your sleep. lol. I always save the year end corn for making pickled corn. It is so good you can eat it out of the jar.
My husband met a man who told him that he took a string and went around his rows of corn and tied it and that way the storm would not lay it down but  to me like if one of the stalks started to fall it would make all the rest fall. Maybe we should all try this out.
 Oh well, I guess we can still pick it even tho it is laying flat. With everything going up it is good to be able to have a small garden to put stuff away for the winter months. Just hope our potatoes did good as the bugs this year was something else on them.
