Bloody Butcher is an old dent-type corn has been grown in the United States since at least 1845. ear will appear. Known for its fine, rich, sweet flavor that is good
for flour, cornmeal or roasted corn when young. Good producer
of heavy ears—can weigh up to ½ lb. each when young and fresh.
Withstands heavy winds, drought and heat.
100-120 days grows 9 to 12 feet tall, that is my husband standing next to the corn i planted last year.

When do you pick these?

You pick them when the silk on the ears is brown. Plant in a four row block for better pollination than 2 long rows.

And when it is brown does that mean they are young for roasting?
