  • This variety, as you can read at 0:05, is called Jala. It's from Jala Valley, it's ancient.

    As you can see the weeds on the ground at the begining is oxalis, this indicate a severe washing-up of nutrient in the soil, it can lead to the destructuration of clay. When clay liberate its Al+++ and Fe+++, it intoxicate the soil and then go into the plant, the grain. Food, grain, cattle meat fill with Al+++, so it give neuro-degeneratives issues.

    Use 1 ft. of ramial chipped wood to restore the soil.

  • @teflondon91 No its not. It is a known line breed. People who do GMOs are not interested in making tall stalks. They are more interested in disease and pesticide resistance.

  • This corn variety Isn't modified, it is an ancient variety from central America that naturally grows to 15-25 feet tall. Today's corn has been modified to be short, and produce smaller more plentiful kernels.

  • Wow, that looks like it would be a lot of fun to grow. Not to mention walk through.

  • holy shit! an alien variety!

  • @aityadeen123 nope.

  • @LaoSoftware it is not GMO

  • @jesseeldrid Very serious depletion of soil nutrients unless the stalks are shredded , composted and dug back in the ground.

  • Why would anyone want corn that large? It would lay over and it's using all of its energy to grow stalk and not ears.

  • @joemartin1957 : I always wanted to grow corn because I love eating them. But this guy has the music on. I can't hear anything he said. I wish he turn off the stupid music. Anyway, I think the giant corn is genetically modified. Natural corn don't get that tall. It's against nature. I wouldn't touch it if I were you.
