Hey guys, I drove by this field a few days ago and was amazed by the height this corn had gotten but I didn't have my phone with me. So today I went back by with phone in hand and got a couple of pictures. This is about 40 acres and was one of the first corn planted in the area. It's standing at 6 feet plus right now. Notice it hasn't started to tassle yet. I reckon it's going to grow a bit more! The reason for the dirt and rock in the foreground, the city is creeping closer. They just got done laying sewer lines next to this field for the houses across the road.
BTW, this is field corn and will be used for feed. There seems to be more sorghum and cotton planted here this year than in the past. Oh, this is in the Rio Grande Valley, deep South Texas.
And I had to back up and take this one with my little wind up truck in the foreground to give a better idea of how tall this corn is.
It's been in the 90's here for almost 2 weeks now, thanks to our extensive irrigation system this stuff can grow.
