Popcorn!
I tried growing popcorn for the 1st time this year. I grew Cherokee Long Ear, Strawberry Popcorn and Miniature Blue. The Cherokee Long Ear performed the best. They all did very well & nothing ate the ears before I could harvest them! Next year it will get double the space - and most likely pollinate more evenly. Even with my spotty pollination, I got 3 quarts from an 8x4 stand of popcorn! I have dried some in the oven & am going to try it soon! The colours are gorgeous. I just hope that it pops!
