I would like to add when it comes to corn pollination
Each immature kernel has a silk fiber attached
One grain of pollen must enter each to reach that individual kernel
If you have more than one variety maturing at the same time,some kernels in the same ear will be different from the intended parents
Mixed colors of kernels may occur.or some may be dent while others are flint,sweet or flour
