Ozark, I plant at 15-18 inches in 48 inch rows. Would use 42, but the old tractor is set for 48 and I am not pushed for land. Even field corn is short in this sandy soil. Part of it is that we don't apply much nitrogen untill the corn is about 2 feet tall.

This for example is the Mesa Maize cultivar Lucious. listed at 75 inches but barely got 5 feet for me. Ears very low on the stalk, what the old folks called Jaybird corn, because the Blue Jays could walk along the rows and eat the corn while standing on the ground. It was not one of my favorites, but ok.
