Sweet Corn
Corn earworm (CEW) adult catches are rising throughout most of the state now. Only the northernmost counties still have few individual moth captures. Elsewhere, growers should be shortening their silk spray schedules to three days even if specific sites have abnormally low catches. Northern growers should prepare for the population to increase in their area very soon.
Generally, spray schedules should be as follows:
North: – 4 days
Central: – 3 days
South: – 3 days
