Diet Pepsi quietly changes sweetener. NEW YORK (AP) â Diet Pepsi is quietly changing its sweetener ahead of a major rebranding of the soft drink set for next month. The change comes as PepsiCo (PEP) looks to reinvigorate its namesake brands after.
Corn will display signs of ripeness when it is ready for picking. Sweet corn (Zea mays) grows in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 4 to 8. On average, it takes 60 to 100 days to ripen, depending on the variety. Knowing the maturity date will increase the chances of plucking ears of corn with the best possible flavor.
We plant about 4 acres and sell sweet corn from a stand in the summer. Easiest way to know when itâs ready is to watch for the silks to emerge after the corn tassels. Mark down the date of silk emergence and pick the corn 20 days later. Stagger your planting, as the corn remains prime for only about 3 or 4 days before it begins to become over-ripe.
