Golden Bantam 12 Corn, an heirloom variety with a rich history, is celebrated for its sweet and flavorful kernels. This classic corn cultivar boasts golden-yellow ears, each filled with plump and juicy kernels that burst with sweetness when cooked or eaten straight from your backyard. Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil and a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8. Plant seeds directly in the garden after the last frost, placing them about 1-2 inches deep and 8-12 inches apart, in rows spaced 24-36 inches apart.

Ensure the soil remains consistently moist throughout the growing season, especially during dry periods. Adding a layer of mulch around the plants can help retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Golden Bantam 12 Corn typically matures in 70-90 days. Keep an eye on the tassels at the top of the stalks; when they turn brown and the ears feel plump, it's time for harvest. For peak sweetness, harvest and cook the corn as quickly as possible. 

With its delicious taste and iconic golden color, Golden Bantam 12 Corn is a timeless addition to any garden. Enjoy the satisfaction of growing and savoring this classic corn variety straight from your backyard.
