We should be good here. I hope so. My corn is about 4 inches tall now, and my buddy has about 400 acres of corn about 600 yards from me the same height. Plus about 1,000 more acres about two miles from here too.

After I posted I googled distance for cross pollination of corn. Two sources said 100 and 150 feet should prevent most crossing. Looks like you’re good!That field is southeast of me. It`ll be good.
I waited muuuuch longer to do my first mowing this season, left alot of "weed flowers" for longer. It was a breath of fresh air to see all the honey bees in my yard. I've never seen so many. Hoping they stick close by for garden season!I am convinced that the lack of bees is what caused such low production last year. We had lots of blooms for all our vegetables but low output.

One of my better boy's leaves has yellow/white spotting on it. What do I need more/less of to fix this problem?
From looking online I thought sun scald as well.May be a mild case of sunscald, if they went straight out without much time or cloudy days to harden off before transplanting?
