All a homegrown stalk of corn asks of you is water, sunlight, and time.
The lacy-leafed tomato vine is the poster plant of hobby gardening—it thrives just as happily in a coffee can wired to the slats of a fire escape as it does in a loamy country plot, and its rewards, both vegetable and spiritual, are bounteous. Nothing says summer quite like biting into a juicy, sweet tomato from your own garden, freshly picked, maybe sprinkled with a little bit of salt. I adore tomatoes, and every year I go wild with my own tomato gardening.
The thing with vegetable gardening is that, if you want to eat it later, you need to plant it now. We’re well past the window for starting sweet corn from seed , but it’s not too late to get some seedlings. Any variety will do—some, slightly shorter in both growing time and stalk height, have been specially bred for container planting, but it doesn’t really matter.
The end product of all of this, of course, is one’s own homegrown ears of corn. They start appearing along the stalk a week or so after pollination , and take a few weeks more to swell and ripen; they’re ready to harvest when the silk turns brown. Sweet corn is at its best within moments of being picked: as soon as it’s off the stalk, its abundance of sugars begin to turn into starch.
