You can replant the sweetcorn outside once the plant has grown big enough and the weather has gotten warmer. Plant in blocks with approximately 45 cm sides, 2 seeds in each corner. Thin out the weakest plants once shoots appear.
Start by sowing 1 seed per pot. Place the pot in a warm area and leave it to sprout. Change its spot to a cooler area once shoots start to appear and make sure to water regularly and fertilize once a week. The cobs are ripe and ready to be harvested when they are thick, firm and the thin strands on the bottom of the cob have shrivelled.
