The corn and pole beans have taken off. Actually, the pole beans are growing at a much faster rate than the corn causing some problems.

The beans are taking down the corn!

The pole beans have grown so tall, with no where to go, that they stretch over to other vines or corn stalks. The multiple beans vines get together and pull over stalks. I've added some large poles and twine to give the corn stalks some relief. I'm not sure if I'll plant them together again next year.

I had my doubts about the success of the corn, but ears of corn have started to pop out on several of the stalks. Of course, progress reports will continue. ;-)
