Anyone know 0f anyone who sells open pollinated se

Not sure how much seed you want but some of the seed catalogs have Blood Butcher listed. Not sure but I think one called Shumways has a few other varieties and larger amounts listed. We plant some of the Bloody Butcher every couple of years and make corn meal. Makes bluish colored corn bread. Good stuff.  Good luck.

my neighbor planted some one year ( i actually custom planted it).   I sure hope you have  a special use.   he planted his for silage.   grew real tall; was going to be lots of tonage; BUT then it all fell flat on the ground!

Go to the seed catalog cos. One of them at least will have Reed"s Yellow Dent. That is what Dad developed for fourty years and it was unbelievable. He always hand shelled his seed corn. In fact that was one of my jobs when I got old enough. Cows just loved it and would push the hybrid to the side to eat it first. We always shelled off the nub ends and used the center. We picked only the ears that had a small cob, and with the old time planters that we mostly had the ledger plates had to be open up a BUNCH or else the seed would not go through real well and you would have skips in the rows. But if you use it you will not  have to develop It for as long as Dad did and it makes the most wonderful corn for the table or cattle feed or poultry. Message me back if you like, but wait too long. Don't know how much longer I'll last at 80.       Leon

Get ahold of RH Schumways, get one of their seed catalogues. If you get their open pollinated corn make sure your corn picker is in good shape. The ears on mine were long and skinny, just like the stalks. I planted 5 acres out by the highway, 40" rows. I put on 150 lbs actual dry nitrogen at planting, 60 lb of actual p&k. Then just for fun, on half of it, I put another 100 lbs of nh3 with a 5 knife tank applicator when it was between knee and waist high. Everybody wanted to know what that extra tall corn was. It was a good show, done for the fun of it. Cultivated twice. At the time I had a good heavy disk to work all those consarned stalks down. I combined it with a E Gleaner combine, slowly, just to feed all those stalks thru. I'll see if I can find an old journal from back then, I had the yield number written down but at this exact moment the bpa escapes me.
