Early Sunglow Hybrid Corn (Zea mays) is a fast-maturing, early-season sweet corn variety perfect for cooler climates and short growing seasons. Reaching maturity in just 63–68 days, this compact hybrid produces 6–7 inch ears with 12–14 rows of tender, golden-yellow kernels known for their sweet, mild flavor and excellent texture. Its strong, 4–5 foot stalks are well-suited for home gardens and small plots, offering reliable yields even in less-than-ideal spring conditions. Early Sunglow thrives in full sun and well-drained, fertile soil and is often among the first sweet corn varieties ready for harvest. Ideal for fresh eating, grilling, or freezing, this dependable hybrid delivers flavor and performance early in the season.
Early Sunglow hybrid sweet corn FAQ
Why plant corn in blocks?
Corn is wind-pollinated; planting at least 3–4 short rows side by side gives full ears.
When should I plant sweet corn?
Plant 1–2 weeks after last frost once soil is warm. In warm regions (zones 8–10), plant early so ears mature before hot summer weather.
How do I know when corn is ready?
Silks turn brown and kernels squirt milky juice when pressed, about 3 weeks after silking.
