Frequently asked questions
Do I need to transplant sweet corn seedlings?
Yes. Start seeds in our kit, then transplant seedlings to your garden or large outdoor containers (at least 5-gallon size) when they're 3-4 inches tall and after last frost.
How do I know when sweet corn is ready to harvest?
Corn is ready when silks turn brown and dry, kernels are plump and milky when pierced, and ears feel full. This typically occurs 18-24 days after silks first appear.
Where are Seeds In A Cup kits made?
Every kit is hand-assembled in Cleveland, Ohio, USA at 200 Euclid Ave. We're a proud American small business ensuring quality control on every single kit we ship.
Is the planter recyclable after I transplant my corn?
Yes! The planter is made from 100% recyclable materials. You can reuse it for starting more seeds, use the lid as a plant saucer, or recycle it responsibly.
What makes sweet corn "sweet"?
Sweet corn varieties have a genetic mutation that converts less sugar to starch, keeping kernels sweeter longer. Harvest timing is crucial - pick at peak ripeness for maximum sweetness.
Frequently asked questions
What is your 100% Growth Guarantee for sweet corn seeds?
If your sweet corn seeds don't sprout, we'll replace them free of charge. We batch-test all seeds in Cleveland to ensure high germination rates before shipping.
How many corn plants will I get from one kit?
Each kit contains enough seeds to start multiple corn plants. For best pollination and ear development, plan to grow at least 4-6 plants together in a block formation.
When should I plant sweet corn seeds?
Start seeds indoors 2-3 weeks before your last frost date, or direct sow outdoors after all danger of frost has passed and soil temperature reaches 60°F (typically April-June depending on your zone).
How often should I water sweet corn seedlings?
Keep soil consistently moist during germination (every 1-2 days). Once established, corn needs about 1 inch of water per week, more during tasseling and ear development stages.
Can kids grow sweet corn from this kit?
Absolutely! Sweet corn is an excellent educational plant for kids to learn about food production, pollination, and plant growth cycles. Adult supervision recommended for children under 8.
