Corn needs to be planted during suitable conditions and not by a calendar date. For northwestern Ohio, the probability for optimal yields occurs when corn is planted between April 25 and May 10.
After this date, yields generally decline because of a shorter growing season. Corn planted before this time period will often have weakened or poor stands because of extended cool, wet conditions.
This optimal planting date window allows plants to take advantage of longer periods of daylight, pollinate earlier, and mature before a killing frost.
