In addition, the soil should be neutral or slightly acidic, and have favorable drainage and watering conditions. 2. Pay attention to isolation when planting sweet corn Isolation is very important when growing sweet corn. The pollen of sweet corn must not be mixed with the pollen of ordinary corn, otherwise the sweet corn grown will be genetically changed.
