Ouch: If your front thighs are tight, go slowly. As you lean back, find the first place you feel a stretch. Stay there and breathe. Resist the temptation to push into pain. â¢ If the front of your ankle hurts, put a rolled- up facecloth under the ankle joint.
Early Corn. Most varieties of early season corn take 67 to 72 days to harvest, with the typical maturity time listed on the seed packet. One variety, called Earlivee, can be ready to pick as soon as 58 days after planting. Most types of main-season corn can be harvested 78 to 83 days after planting, according to the University of Illinois Extension.
Time It Right. If you have a choice, it's a good idea to harvest corn as close to the time you're going to eat or use it as possible. In fact, you might want to have the water boiling for corn on the cob before you head out to harvest. To harvest sweet corn, grab an ear and twist it down and off the stalk.
