Sweetcorn disaster!

I planted my sweetcorn out a couple of weeks ago - they were really healthy, strong and tall.  I went back up a few days later to find their once green leaves all yellow and lying flat on the soil.  I've put fleece over them now but horse and barn door spring to mind!!

Are they dead or will they come back?  I have got some more in reserve.

That would indeed be a miracle but not one that happens very often to sweetcorn in that state I'm sorry to say.

You no doubt won't be planting out your spares until you are more sure about the temperatures, so you might as well leave the others there "just in case".   

 same has happened to mine, so I have planted another pack of seeds in propergators on window sill 7 will plant out when they get nice & big.

I usually wait until mid-June to put the sweetcorn out around here.

Mine wont be outside till end of the month and then under a pop bottle for a couple weeks.

too cold june at the earliest
Grew sundance last year smaller plant and fast maturing for northern gardens. yummy.

Sundance eh?  Taste ok?  I planted Incredible f1 last year and my only gripe with them was that they took until Sept to mature.  Mind you, it was a lousy summer.  Tasted good though, so worth the wait.

 Think that is what my new plants are. Hope they grow well.
