Classic corn on the cob – in an organic version. Golden Bantam is a mid-early sweet corn variety with yellow-orange, very sweet seeds. The ears are suitable for cooking whole and serving with butter – a staple of summer grilling. The organic version means certified ecological cultivation, GMO-free.
Golden Bantam is a variety known for over 100 years, valued for reliability and taste. Stems are stiff, upright, and do not branch. Each plant produces 1–2 ears. The taste is classic – sweet, juicy, perfect cooked with butter. Bonus: gluten-free, making it a great substitute for people with celiac disease.
Sowing (early May, outdoors): sow seeds directly into the soil at a depth of 4–6 cm, spaced 40 × 40 cm apart. Sow 3–4 seeds per spot – after germination, leave the strongest plant.
Care: regular watering (corn does not tolerate drought), weeding. Organic fertilizer before sowing, optionally feeding with compost during the season.
Pollination: corn is wind-pollinated – plant at least 4 × 4 rows, not a single row. Otherwise, cobs will be hollow inside.
Harvest (August – September): pick cobs at the milky stage: the husks start to dry, kernels are full but still soft. When pressed with a fingernail, white "milk" flows out – this is a sign of readiness. Once it reaches the "starchy" stage, cobs become hard and less tasty.
Classic: boiled cobs with butter – the taste of summer street food. Great for grilling in the husks, for soups (corn cream), for salads (chowder), for freezing (remove kernels from the cob before freezing). Freshly picked cobs are always sweeter than store-bought – sugar starts breaking down from the moment of picking.
The best taste is from the moment you pick the cob until the latest hour in the oven. The sugar in corn kernels literally turns into starch every minute – after 24 hours on the shelf, the taste is much worse. Therefore: boil water before going to the garden bed, then pick the cobs. Cook for 5–7 minutes. With butter.
