I am looking for recommendations for corn varieties. This last year was a
short, cold, wet growing season and half of our corn never matured. Also, I
seem to have the best luck with yellow corn, worst luck with white and high
sugar corn.
Anyone have any comments on the robustness of white and high sugar corn,
versus 'normal' yellow corn, and any recommendations for short growing
seasons?

You can also visit your local Agway and ask for a recommendation.

See catalogs don't tell me anything. Amazing Size! Delicious mouth watering
sweetness! Grows without water or even soil! Bah...in their eagerness to
sell seeds, they overhype the descriptions so badly you can't tell what is
what.
