As in a single corn plant. Corn needs to be planted in bunches to produce corn. The denser an area is planted the better for the corn. A 20 x 20 ft. area is better than one or two long rows.
no, I believe it's 6 or 9 plants. It was a pack of seeds I bought from Burpee. Supposed to be "patio corn" to grow in a pot. I just thought it would be cool for my kids to see grow. Not enough property to make a row garden

Better give a good shake once tassels appear. That's not very much pollen in the air for corn.

One of the quickest seed to harvest vegetables are radishes. The only problem with that is, most kids won't even want to eat them, so it's a Catch-22.
I grew corn last year for the first time and they did pretty good. The most you can expect from each plant is 2 ears and more than likely just one per plant. The only issue I had was the wind and how shallow rooted they are. I straightened them out and hilled more soil up the stalks to stabilize them.
