Sweet corn 'Silver Platinum'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water often. Keep in mind when planting that Silver Platinum is thought of as tender, so it is really important to ensure that the outside temperature is well above freezing before planting or moving outdoors. Silver Platinum requires a loamy and clay soil with a ph of 6.5 - 7.5 - it grows best in weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.

Look to ensure a distance 7.8 inches (20.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 1.17 inches (3.0 cm) deep. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 21°C / 70°F to ensure good germination.

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

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