Overview
Extra Early Super Sweet is a yellow supersweet (sh2) hybrid that reaches picking stage in roughly 67 days, which puts it among the quicker choices for gardeners in short-season areas. For an early type the ears are generous, running 10 to 12 inches in length with 12 to 14 kernel rows. Because it carries the sh2 gene, sow it only once the soil has warmed properly and keep it separated from su and se plantings so pollen from other types does not dull the sweetness.
