What season and variety for baby corn, and how is it different from grain maize?

Baby corn is just maize harvested very young, as the unfertilised cob, before pollination. You can use dedicated baby corn hybrids that give multiple cobs per plant, and you detassel (remove the male flower) so cobs stay tender and unpollinated. It can be grown in more than one season a year where temperature allows, often spring-summer and the rainy season in many regions, giving several crops. Plant population is kept higher than grain maize. Pick at the right young silk stage. Confirm a suitable baby corn hybrid, plant population and sowing windows for your area with your KVK.
