I purchased 100 seed packets that only said 90 in each pack when I got it at home in the Caribbean.
Then there pack said 85% growt...Read Moreh rate. Of the 348 seeds I planted I got about 110 plants and remained with 102 plants.
Those are the negatives.

The positives are that the plants all bore fruit. It is now 52 days, silk has shown a while now the fruits aren't fully developed however I am not sure what to look for to ensure that my corn is picked just at the right time and that the right thing is done for when picked I could really use some advice in this regard.

Delectable cornstalks don't grow very big, so I was able to plant it close, 32" between rows and 14" between plants. It's productive at that spacing because we got almost 100 big ears from three 25' rows. The flavor's sweet and real good, I'll be growing Delectable again.

A homozygous (se) variety, it has a higher sugar content than normal sugar varieties and will hold its sweetness for 3-4 days after picking. (This (se) variety should be separated from field corn, popcorn, and SH² (super sweet) varieties by 250 feet to prevent cross-pollination. Staggering plantings with a 10-15 plus day maturity difference will allow closer plantings where cross-pollination is a concern.)

This corn is a vigorous grower with nice sized ears that are very tasty.
