I didn't know that, but it explains why I've had luck with them.
My dad the farmer gave me that tip when diagnosing my sisters massive tomato plants that stayed green for ever. (She lives in Akron)

If you plant corn plant them in a block instead of a few long rows. They will pollinate better in a block. Nothing better than fresh corn! Here's my patch from a couple years ago!Got all our plants in over the weekend. Tomatoes, peppers, herbs, zucchini, cucumber, and I went rogue and got carrot, pumpkin, watermelon, and corn seed. Not overly optimistic as our garden sits on the east side of the house (first full year here). Regardless it was a fun day in the backyard so we’ll see how it goes!
I was allotted a 3’x3’ block for my corn experiment. The seeds cost $1.50 so I really don’t even care if I get a harvest, I just want them to germinate!If you plant corn plant them in a block instead of a few long rows.

What kind of peony is that? I planted an Itoh peony last year that is just about to give me the first flowers of the year.View attachment 8945602
At the front of the house we have peonies,roses and bright colour.
At the back, I am developing a veggie patch. We moved in late last year, so starting from scratch. Lettuce,carrots,cabbage,celery,peppers and tomatoes are in the greenhouse and I will be digging out a veggie border for potatoes at the end of the summer.
Looks great!Paeonia lutea var. ludlowii
Not sure as we inherited it, but a tree peony that comes out yellow is the one above.
Awesome! So exciting when the little guys start to pop up! I too have to look at pictures to know whether it is friend or foe!Pumpkins, watermelon, and corn have germinated! Possibly carrots and lettuce too. A google search tomorrow will help me determine if weeds or not
That looks serious. What kind of tree is it?
You may want to try your local cooperative extension or an arborist, who should give you a free diagnosis. We use Davey for that kind of stuff and pruning,m even though they are a little pricey on some things. They have never done a bad job in our neighborhood. But I would never use them to cut down a tree - they are the highest price for that by far.
