In my experience, hybrid corn seed such as Incredible, has relatively poor germination the second year after purchase and so on. This is certainly true of Honey Select.
Well, yep, I had less than 1% germination this year with Incredible Corn packaged for 2021. So that is 3 years.

I didn't plant that seed last year so it sat in the freezer in a baggie for two years without being opened. Maybe the germination rate would have suffered last year too. I'm not sure but it does seem to be possible.

I got Kandy Korn this time. They had Honey Select but it was more expensive.

Will someone that has grown several different varieties of sweet corn recommend one for me. I prefer it as sweet as possible but not chewy. I prefer a Synergistic corn variety.

After growing countless varities I finally settled on Inferno. However, I dont know of a company that sells it anymore that I trust.

Please help.

I had wonderful results with Gurneys Wild Violet hybrid last year! Planting again in a couple weeks. https://www.gurneys.com/product/wil...81802399936249&utm_content=All Product Groups
