I've experimented growing sweetcorn in a different way this year and they are doing really well but odd thing is they are all throwing off side shoots that look like stalks - the centre one is thick and robust the side ones just as healthy looking never had this before its an extra sweet  variety but as usual can't remember the name. Oh i am growing them on some ground i had not cleared - just turned over, left all the grass roots etc in, raked a bit flat dumped loads of old compost and even fresh stuff to about 6ins covered with weed fabric and cut through to plant.
