Enjoying the sights, sounds and smells of first-time parenthood. Progress on the organic vegetable garden and other ramblings of a gaijin in Japan’s least populous prefecture.

First sweetcorn

We were spared the typhoon, although it was another gloomy and wet day. After dinner, I popped out to the garden to check the corn and ended up taking a few cobs. The test of a few raw kernels was promising, with a bit of luck they will be as sweet for tomorrow lunchtime.

    Well done on successfully growing sweetcorn. I have not managed to grow it yet nor harvest my own sweetcorn. I hope you enjoy it.

    We only just had it but still sweet. A couple tasted of garlic. Could be from when they were in the garden or kept in the kitchen.
    There are some spindly cobs left, I’m unsure if that’s our lot.
