Today on Episode 9 we’re talking about Growing Premium Corn with Huma Gro® Products. Our guests include Mr. Lyndon Smith, President and CEO of Bio Huma Netics, Inc.—the maker of Huma Gro®, Fertilgold® Organics, Mesa Verde Humates, and several other product lines—and Mr. Jason Garcia, Florida Sales Manager and Agronomist for Bio Huma Netics, Inc. Growing corn is quite a complicated topic, so in this podcast we walk through the typical growth cycle of corn and discuss the nutrients that are needed at each stage. We also discuss products that you might need because of common deficiencies or pests and products that you might want to add in order to achieve premium quality for your crop. We review the needs of both grain corn and sweet corn and discuss nutritional needs differences between the two.
