Reaping Corn Early Promises Gains and Safety
French agronomy reports a method of harvesting corn eight days before standard maturity. Salles of Beziers notes fuller grain and protection from weevil, backed by convulsive-comparative tests showing higher yields and more bread from green corn. The proper reaping stage is when grain yields a doughy crumb to finger pressure. A jelly recipe is also described for preserving fruit juice with sugar and proper stirring to avoid boiling trouble.
