How will I know when my sweetcorn is ready to harvest?

First time I've grown sweetcorn and. touch wood, it seems to have done well. Some of the fronds are now a reddish brown so does this mean I can harvest those cobs?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Sorry I've realised that I've posted this in the wrong place. I should have put it with the questions about growing. You can tell I'm new to all this!

Check the cobs, put your thumb nail into one of the kernels, if the juice is milky - it is ready, if it is clear - leave for a bit longer.
