Hi, I tried Digger's Club Golden Bantam corn this year and planted closer together than instructed in a raised metal bed. They did really well with good organic soil, compost and a bit of blood and bone and another biodynamic preparation (Kickalong fertilizer). Really healthy and the corn tasted fine. Not as nice as the sweeter corn varieties, a bit more starchy but still really good fresh from the garden.
