    you don't know me but I'm the oldest of 11. I grew up on a third generation fruit & vegetable farm. I live in north central ohio. we had mostly sandy soil. this time of year we would pick between 150 to 300 bushel of cantaloupe & 500 to 600 watermelons. we'd pull about the same amount of sweet corn as you. we'd grow acres & acres of potatoes & dig them with a one row digger. never was able to watch a high school football game. we also had 75 to 80 milking cows. all I can say more power to you

    Wow, that was interesting. I never knew that each kernel needs to be pollinated. I don't garden any more but I used to and that info would have helped my garden, no doubt. Anyway, keep these videos coming. I truly enjoy each one. I live in The Pas - north western Manitoba and there are some nice gardens around here. We have a shorter growing season than you but longer days.

    The 1/4" long pollen capsule contains tens of thousands of pollen grains. When the capsule opens, it releases the pollen that then falls on the silk. A pollen grain is the size of a speck of dust. The capsule will drop but has already done it's job by then.
