|
7/10/00. After planting the seeds, I covered the area with hardware cloth to, hopefully, keep the birds from pulling up the seedlings as soon as they sprout.
|
|
7/16/00. Good germination. Almost all seeds sprouted.
|
|
7/16/00. Covered with a gadget made from 2x4 and hardware cloth to keep the birds out of the sprouted corn.

|
7/20/00. At least the birds didn't get them.
|
|
7/23/00. Not much left. Don't think this will do anything--not enough to pollinate.
|
| Summary: What the birds didn't get, the voles, etc., got. This corn didn't have a chance. Will try it again next year.
