Beautiful Baby corn

The germination was incredibly high, over 95 percent by our careful count. The formerly bland starchy popcorn is now profoundly sweet - almost sickeningly sweet!
















Although the rootlets are over an inch long the acrospyre is only the length of the kernel itself.

So how well did it dry? Did the germination stop pretty quickly once you spread it out to dry? I'm amazed at how well that seems to have worked - awesome!
