[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 8353485, member: 86168"] our maize has done well, this year, it's going to be 15+ for certain. But, against many opinions, it shouldn't be. We are a very dry farm, and our maize was drilled, mid may, against usual custom. We find it tends to grow like fury, sown later, without any weather check, it is that rapid growth, that allows quick ground cover, which then retains the moisture. Compared to many local crops, ours is fantastic. A lot looks awful, and some, not worth harvesting, and a lot has been cut, because it is dead. We do tend to grow types more suited to eastern Europe, Polish ones, they need to be both hardier, quicker growing, and earlier ripening, which their climate dictates. All of which, suit us, we can double crop with them, with a 'bigger' window. [/QUOTE]
