Title: sweetcorn
Post by: pauline on August 17, 2006, 16:41:49

 ??? How do I dress sweetcorn for our annual show. As a novice have to have 3 sweetcorn, 12 dwarf beans and 3 carrots. These are all that I can show at the moment.

Hi Pauline,  :)

I don`t know either and a web search came up with nothing. Have you tried going to the organisers of the show and asking for their rules or guidlines. You might also be able to speak to someone with more experience with that show.

There should be rules in addition to how many ears you need to show and required size. In the case of corn they may want the tassels on or they may want them taken off and also with the outer leaves they may need to be on or off.

You need to know these details because if you take leaves off and they want them on you can`t stick `em back on again.

Best of luck, Col
