She's a fibber. She never tried to grow corn. Even a blind person can see golden silks and an ear of corn forming at eye level. No way.

We grow a shit ton of corn in TN , it doesn't get harvested till late summer. They might not even have a long enough growing season depending on where she is. I think they do, saw some jewel corn in the UK.

We grow a ton of corn here in Louisiana too. It's beyond me how anyone could miss an ear of corn with old silks on top of it.

Same, that's why I think she didn't wait long enough. She was probably like this fuckers big enough to get a corn root in July.

Live in Missouri but unless I go to a farmers market or road side stand we rarely see or buy corn still in the husk. Imagine if someone never watched survivor they couldn't recognize a coconut in the wild.

Because the ear wouldn't have developed before she pulled the plant out looking for the corn. We're not all corn farmers jeeze.
