So here is the next chapter of the story. I have had 2 people look at the crop. One guy from the FSA office and a PHD from the chemical company(callisto). He is their field man, and in the beginning callisto had no snap bean restriction. That was until it killed hundred of acres in...

I only have 80 acres of sweet corn. Odds are to little sun, and to much water. Might also need to give it some granular fertilizer. Sweet corn likes heat and sun. Might be that the it gets root bound because the pot is to small. How deep is the pot? I'd send you some seed, BUT sweet corn...
