HELP! What did this to my CORN and how do I stop it?
Posted: Fri Jul 01, 2022 8:26 pm
I got a late start to the garden this year but was thrilled to see that my first batch of corn (4x4 16 plants) was growing successfully. Just over 2 feet high. I just checked on the garden and found this!
What could do this to me? Insects? An animal? How do I stop it?
Also, my second batch of corn, about 8 inches high - 2 plants ripped right out and then left on the ground! Cut worms? Or an animal?
This is the first year I decided NOT to plant marigolds around the garden. At first I heard it helps with pests and although I never had this problem, now I hear it doesn't help, so I figured I'd give myself a little more room this year and not plant them. Not sure if that is a coincidence or not?
Has anyone experienced this and/or knows how to stop it? I need help FAST!
