Corn Silk can be used to help alleviate symptoms that go along with the following conditions: bedwetting, cystitis, prostatitis, urinary tract infections, kidney stones, gout and hyperglycemia. (More details on those below.) Itâs also a natural source of vitamin K and potassium.
Monitor the corn 15 to 24 days after silk emergence. Emerging silk will look like a glossy tassel or tuft at the tip of the ear of corn. Watch for the silk to dry up and turn brown. When the silk begins to dry up and feel stiff, the ear is ripe.
