Re: How do I change the y-axis on an Excel chart from numbers towords. This will plot everything as zero values, since they are all text. You can fake it using one of these approaches: http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/Y_CategoryAxis.html. http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/DotPlot.html. - Jon.
First you must keep in mind that all ears of corn have an even number of rows, never an odd number. All average ears have between 12 and 20 rows. Still, it's difficult to tell at a glance whether an ear has 14, 16, 18, or 20 rows.
This Site Might Help You. RE: How many ears of corn are there on a single corn stalk? A corn stalk has the potential of producing one ear at every leaf attachment. but because we want good standability and large consistent ears, Plant breeders tend to breed for 1 good ear. Even then on a good year with plenty of rain and sun plants tend to push for 2 good ears but will abort one if conditions change.
