Sweet corn 'Black Navajo'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water often. Keep in mind when planting that Black Navajo is thought of as tender, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. Ideally plant in loamy and clay soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 6.5 and 7.5 as Black Navajo likes to be in weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 7.8 inches (20.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 1.17 inches (3.0 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 21°C / 70°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Black Navajo about 14 days after your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Black Navajo is a tender plant.
