Grow Your Own Glass Gem Corn

Sow these seeds directly in your garden one to two weeks after your average last frost date. The seeds should be planted 1 to 1.5 inches deep in pairs, with pairs spaced 12 inches apart within rows.

Once the seedlings are 4 inches tall, thin them to one per 12 inches, and watch as your garden transforms into a field of rainbow-colored gems.

Pest-Resistant

Glass Gem Corn is relatively resistant to pests. Still, to ensure the best yield, follow our included guide on how to keep your crop safe from corn earworms and other common pests.

Harvesting Your Corn

Allow the ears to dry on the cornstalks. Once the kernels are hard and you can’t make a dent in them with your fingernail, they’re ready to be harvested.

Vimal M Mathews – August 15, 2023

Beautiful colours. Each plant gave me 1-2 ears, but when I popped them, the popcorn was too small and crunchy for me.

Had such a great time growing these! I let the cobs dry on the stalk before harvesting, and they turned out to be incredibly beautiful!

Our glass gem corn cobs didn’t grow big, but they looked really pretty, so it didn’t bother us. The kids loved peeling off the husks to reveal what was inside.

I have given away many dried cobs as gifts – very happy with these! Will grow them again.
