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.
The best site for a good crop of sweet corn is an area that receives at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight each day. The soil should be moist but drain well, since standing water can cause the corn seed to rot. Sweet corn feeds heavily on the nitrogen in the soil.
