Not a chance lady, I've lost a few bushes to them already.

Hydroponic Corn
https://t.co/3iuqUFNItM

Corn can be grown hydroponically either indoors or out. Corn consumes a lot of vertical space, so that of course should be considered if planning to grow it indoors.

Healthy corn stalks should grow straight up. Corn stalks that appear healthy but are falling and toppling over are generally over fed, it's known as lodging. So long as the stalks have not snapped the condition is not irreversible. https://t.co/fPGFnGtzV5

Came across this pollinator garden outside @CityMarketCoop -- just think of the positive impact if these types of plantings are normalized and around every corner? We'd have a far better chance of connecting living greenways, for sure. Plus they're inviting for people too. 🙂
