I had such high hopes for my sweet corn. First time growing it. I waited until the silks had turned brown and picked a couple of the fuller ears. One was perfect, the other just a little under developed. Flavor was spot on too, nice and sweet. Picked a couple more earlier this week, only half developed and less sweet. Now that the silks are really brown, I picked a lot more today. Again, only half developed.

Was the underdevelopment from lack of fertilizer? They had plenty of water as we've been getting drenched this year.
