This spot has some topsoil removed in the fall of 2015 and was planted to grass and clover. This year I put on some compost and 10-10-10 fertilizer, tilled it and planted sweet corn. The corn showed nitrogen deficiency, so I gave it more 10-10-10 and got great sweet corn. I mowed off the stalks and then started dumping on grass clippings. Next spring it will get compost and 10-10-10 and tilled. I plan to plant on of my 1047.5 seeds and grow one with the blossom down and stem up. It will get mainly artificial fertilizers and has a smaller growing area. It will be strictly an attempt for a Howard Dill award and for the orange genetics.
