Welcome aboard, Sylvester! 48 ears in 40 square feet is pretty good already, especially for sweet corn! The only way I can think of to increase that any further would be to find a variety that reliably produces multiple ears per stalk. I came across this thread on the topic: forums2.gardenweb.com/forums/load/cornucop/msg0712322613807.html. Even then, though, the only ones to produce multiples are often ones with greater spacing around them, so it averages out. But we have plenty of other corny people here who might be able to help you out! MB |
