Growing corn - non GMO

I purchased some non GMO corn from St. Clare Heirloom Seeds 6 months ago.   I bought a pack of 50 and built a raised bed.

I planted my first crop of corn yesterday. I was lucky they gave me an extra pack of 50 for free, since it took 100 seeds for the first half of my raised bed.

I plan on having 3 crops.   One early crop, and one late crop - using the same bed.  So I planted in February my first crop.   The normal crop will be in between the early and late... and will use the second half of the raised bed.   I didn't expect the whole raised bed would hold 200 seeds!  (I should have measured and calculated.)  I have just bought my second round of seeds.

This will be a fun year!
