I'm no expert by any means.... but what I've always been told is that corn is driven entirely by heat. Given that you don't really accumulate a lot of heat very early in the season, the relative difference of a few days or even a week or two in planting probably doesn't make a big difference. The greatest percentage of the heat is coming on through June and July anyway.
I'd get several varieties with different maturities, and for simplicity, plant them near the same time. They should mature acording to each's maturity that way....
