Where and when to plant Bravado F1 corn
Start with the color your buyer pays for: yellow corn goes to feed mills, while white and glutinous corn go to the table. Next, pick between a hybrid, which yields more but needs new seed every season, and an open pollinated variety, whose seed you can save. Then match the island group in its recommendation, because trials in Luzon and Mindanao give different winners. Before planting, get the field ready with our guide: Land preparation for corn.
Before you buy seed
- Buy sealed packs or tagged sacks from an accredited dealer, and check the packing date and germination rate.
