The Silver King Dent Corn, also known as "Wisconsin No. 7", is not to be confused with the hybrid sweet corn of the same name! This early-maturing heirloom white dent corn is the leading white variety in the northern Corn Belt, with full-to-the-tip 8-9-inch long ears, very wide 16-a-row kernels, and leafy stalks that make it an excellent variety for silage. This strong grower, developed in 1904, is especially adapted to resist cold weather. White varieties are typically lower in protein and oil and higher in starch than yellow varieties, making them superior for distillation. Like "Bloody Butcher Corn", it can be roasted when young and ground when mature for grits, meal, hominy, and masa.

Planting Instructions:

Soil Preparation:

Choose an area with heavy, well-draining soil that receives at least 6 hours of sunlight each day. Remove weeds, large rocks, and litter from the planting area. Leave small weeds and dead grass, they will enrich the soil when turned under. Spade or till the soil 8-12 inches deep. Loosening the soil will help the plant establish strong roots.

Corn grow best in soil with lots of organic matter. You may optionally add fertilizer or organic material such as compost, leaves, or rotted hay to mix into the soil at this point. For small gardens, scatter 2-3 tablespoons of fertilizer evenly and work into the top 2-3 inches of soil for each hill or 2 foot by 2 foot planting area. For larger gardens, scatter 2-3 pounds of a complete fertilizer for each 100 square feet of planting area. Work fertilizer or organic material into the soil and leave the surface smooth.

Form rows of soil beds 4-6 inches high and at least 15 inches apart. This formation of ridges will help with drainage.

For small gardens, corn is best planted in square blocks instead of long rows to improve cross-pollination between corn stalks.

Planting:

Corn are best direct-sown because they often don’t transplant well. Plant corn outdoors in spring when soil temperatures warm to at least 65F (treated corn can be planted when the soil is at least 55F). To plant, make holes 2 inches deep and spaced 8 inches apart down the rows of raised beds. Plant 1 seed per hole. Plant 2-3 seeds if choosing to thin to the strongest plant. When thinning, determine the strongest and healthiest plant, then remove all other plants, narrowing to a single plant per hole. Cover seeds thinly with soil and water after planting.



Planting Depth: 2 inch
Within-Row Spacing: 8 inches
Between-Row Spacing: 15 inches


Care During the Season:

Watering: Keep corn plants watered, soaking the soil to a depth of 6-8 inches, once a week. If there is no rainfall, water 2 times a week. Sandy soils may need to be watered more often than heavy clay soils.

A good rule of thumb is to water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Weeding: Keeping plants weed-free improves production. If plowing or hoeing, do not dig deeper than 1 inch to prevent from cutting the feeder roots.

Fertilizing: Once corn plants reach 4-6 inches tall, you may optionally apply a nitrogen-rich fertilizer, without letting the fertilizer touch the plants. A second round of nitrogen-rich fertilizer can be applied to plants when they reach 12-18 inches tall. Then a final round of nitrogen-rich fertilizer can be applied during the tasseling stage, just before ears silks emerge. Read and follow fertilizer instructions for best application. Water plants after fertilizing.

Insecticides: Insecticides may be used to protect plants. Bt-based insecticides and sulfur are organic options that can be used for prevention. Sulfur also has fungicidal properties and helps in controlling many diseases. Before using a pesticide, read the label and follow cautions, warnings and directions.

Diseases: If spots or mold appear, treat plants with an approved fungicide. Neem oil, sulfur, and other fungicides may be used. When using fungicides always follow label directions.

Harvesting:

Sweet corn is usually ready for harvest about 3 weeks after tassels, or male flowers, develop at the top of corn plants. The corn ears are ripe and heady to harvest when the juices from the kernels are milky white, the silks on the ears have turned dark brown, the ears are firm, and the kernels on the tips of the unhusked ears are plump and milky. If the juices from kernels are watery, the ears are not yet ready. Corns ears may be overripe if the kernels are chewy and pasty like dough (starchy). To harvest sweet corn ears, hold the stalk below the ear and twist the tip of the ear toward the ground until it breaks off. Harvest sweet corn in a timely manner since the quality can change quickly. Keep corn in the husks and refrigerated for best storage.

Durable chew toy that keeps my puppy engaged
Size: X-Small, Color: Tangerine, Size: X-Small, Color: Tangerine
My dog went crazy for this toy the second I gave it to him. He is an 8-month-old 7.5 pound Yorkie puppy, an aggressive chewer on the tail end of teething. He has shown no mercy to this toy and yet there’s not a dent in it. That’s why I got it because the material holds up to aggressive chewing. My puppy has confirmed that! It keeps him entertained for a long time. It’s small enough to fit in his mouth for chewing but not so small that he would choke. He loves to sit on the couch but is too young to jump off. This toy keeps him entertained on the couch for a long time so he stays put. He is totally focused on the toy. It is the perfect toy for a bored chewer. Works really well. And it’s super easy to clean. Because it’s such a small toy, I’m only letting him use it when I’m nearby to supervise. But it has really held up to those busy teeth and Yorkie jaw. It’s hard to find a durable toy that also holds his interest. This seems to check all the boxes. I didn’t even have to coat it with a treat taste to draw his interest. I think the bone shape is very functional and attractive for him. He can go a solid 30 minutes chewing on it without getting bored or distracted, and that’s a long time for a Yorkie puppy. I got this toy because I noticed he wanted to chew, but I was tired of other toys that came apart. This one seems like the right durable choice.

Best it for dogs that destroy all other toys
Size: Large, Color: Granny Smith
We bought his it for our dog in 2020 when we rescued her. She has literally destroyed every single toy she has within minutes of giving them to her, but not this toy. It has lasted almost 6 years. It finally started to tear in the center so we bought her another one. Honestly it probably broke from my kids playing tug of war with her and they toy and that’s not really what it’s designed for. I’d rate this a 10/10. It’s quality but no so hard she’ll hurt her teeth.
