Corn Smut! #44815 July 15th, 2006 at 01:54 AM

OP Dixie Angel Member Joined: Nov 2004 SC	Checked the corn patch last night and found that some ears are developing corn smut. We will be picking and disposing of the infected ears this afternoon when Jim gets home from work. My questions? Is the corn that isn't showing signs of the smut safe to eat? Should we move the corn patch next year? Dianna
