Sweet Corn Baron

Baron F1 sweet corn from May Seeds is an ultra-early hybrid with a vegetative period of 61-67 days, allowing for early harvest. Plants reach a height of 180-195 cm, with ears positioned at 60-75 cm. Ears are large, cylindrical, 18-22 cm long, and contain 14-18 rows of bright yellow kernels. Dark green leaf sheaths tightly cover the ear tips, making it difficult for pests to penetrate, ensuring reliable protection and improving harvest retention. The hybrid exhibits strong early growth, especially in the initial development phase, promoting a robust root system. Wide leaf blades facilitate rapid sugar accumulation, positively influencing ear quality and completeness. With adequate nutrient supply, the plant can form and fill two full ears, increasing yield. The average ear weight without leaves is about 330-335 grams, with ear weight reaching up to 400 grams. Baron F1 is suitable for fresh consumption and processing, thanks to its high-quality ears and good storage properties. This hybrid is a worthy competitor among similar sweet corn varieties, combining early maturity, high yield, and pest resistance. Recommended for open-ground cultivation at an average annual temperature of 18-22 °C and humidity of 63-65 % for optimal results.
