Your First Prenatal Visit. If you did not meet with your health care provider before your were pregnant, your first prenatal visit will generally be around 8 weeks after your LMP (last menstrual period). If this applies to you, you should schedule a prenatal visit as soon as you know you are pregnant! Even if you are not a first time mother, prenatal visits are still important since every pregnancy is different. This initial visit will probably be one of the longest.
Sweetness Genes. Standard sweet corn is a mutant type of corn that differs from field or dent corn by a mutation at the sugary (su) locus. The sweet corn (su) mutation causes the endosperm (storage area) of the seed to accumulate about two times more sugar than field corn. Today several hundred sweet corn varieties are available.
If it rains within a week of harvest time, the flavor of sweet corn is often greatly diminished. Also, if the corn matures during high daytime temperatures as well as high nighttime temperatures, the sugar levels of sweet corn will be low and flavor will be disappointing.
