Overview
Cochise is an early bicolor se hybrid whose ears run about 8 3/4 inches and pack in 18 rows of kernels, filled right to the tip and well protected by the husk. It carries some tolerance to Stewart's wilt. Sugar-enhanced genetics give it tender kernels and reasonable holding after harvest, and it does not need to be isolated as strictly as sh2 corn. Sow in blocks after the soil warms, and give the plants steady water through tasseling and ear fill.
