Some years are Are more frustrating than others. the problem I am seeing in my corn is major damage from raccoons. i�ve lost dozens and dozens of ear so far. the mice have caused major damage to my tomatoes. Some have even girdled plants! I�m also super frustrated and disgusted about my giant watermelons. I feel like this definitely could�ve been a fantastic unbelievable year for me. all of the crowns are still beautiful and in great shape but the vines are chewed to pieces it�s so frustrating! in my cantaloupes. Mice are eating them too! for every melon I harvest, there�s one I have to throw into the woods. Some years are worse than others. It�s hard to motivate yourself to go out into the steam bath, and forge ahead when it seems, everything is collapsing around you. That�s farming for you. Rant over. By the way the sweet corn pictured is the variety� incredible� it�s delicious and so tender!
