| Sweet corn (Zea mays L. var. saccharata) attracts people with its amazing flavour. Adverse environmental factors decrease plant's cob yield and quality. A more effective production can be made by using resistant varieties and adjusting the sowing and plating periods. In this study, the effect of direct seed sowing and cultivating with seedlings in three different times (5, 15 and 25 May) on the sweet corn's cob yield and certain quality features have been investigated. In the research hybrid sweet corn varieties; 2201, Challenger, Merit, Sunshine and Yellow Baby were used. Ear weight, ear yield, ear length, ear diameter, sequence in ear, kernel numbers in the sequence, dry weight, TSS, chroma and hue values have been identified in the study. The values... |
