I'm growing corn in a small, 4-foot by the 8-foot raised garden bed and you can too! Foodie Gardener, Shirley Bovshow demonstrates how to grow corn in a very small space! As soon as the weather warms up to 75 to 95 degrees on a consistent basis, it's time to plant corn. Select a sunny spot that receives sun all day long because the corn needs it.

Because corn is a very hungry and thirsty plant, it needs nutrient-rich soil. I'm filling my raised garden bed with a special soil blend made for raised gardens. It offers great texture, and moisture retention, plus organic nutrients to feed the corn. Corn is a part of the grass family.

Spacing corn correctly is crucial to growing corn in a small space because it affects the success of pollination. Follow Shirley and her crew of beginner gardeners as she demonstrates step by step how to select healthy corn plants from the garden center, how to space them, how deeply to plant them,, fertilize them, water them, and when to harvest corn.

You will be able to grow corn in a small raised garden by doing it correctly!
