[quote=Anonymous]You should be able to tell by the tassels--brown but not all dried out, and the husks still feel fresh and moist. The cob, when felt through the husk, should feel full. But I often part the husks a tiny bit. I don't worry about bugs or mold so much as watching for any sign of denting, which means the corn is no good to eat anymore, sugar has turned to starch. Corn fungus that causes gigantic kernels (like elephantiasis of the corn!) is something I saw one year in my parents' sweet corn patch. I learned later it is considered a serious delicacy. [/quote]
