Corn Stalks Mulching Corn for Weed Free Continuous Fresh Corn

[Meadowlark]

Garden corn produces a good bit of crop residue which makes excellent mulch...especially for the second and third crops of corn.

No weeding/cultivating for the second and third crops necessary using that mulch and you get an excellent seed bed for Okra plants to replace the first corn crop. Continuous fresh corn and fresh okra all summer. It just doesn't get any better...

Thanks for the comments...I take the lazy way out and just let it sit and go back into the soil from which it came.

The bees love those yellow flowers on Sunn Hemp...and your garden soil will love what the Sunn Hemp does even more...
