Corn plot

Hi everybody. Sorry it's taken so long to get info about the corn plot out. Just been busy.
Anyway, Ethan and I tilled the plot and planted the [donated] corn.
There are 12 individual rows. So far, we've assigned 0 through six. I think Rachel asked for two, so she can have seven and eight. I think Zoe asked for one - we'll put her at nine. Joanne at 10, unless .
That leaves 11 and 12.
Any takers? Or, anyone have a different memory of how this is all put together? Pretty certain I have it right, but my grasp of taking notes on the Iphone is shakier than I thought.
Please note: We planted two seeds in each spot and it will need to be thinned out. Also, corn takes a lot of water.

Finally, deer. Yes, we know about the deer incursions. We're shoring up the fence as we go, but mechanical stoppers only get us so far. Coyote urine, pepper spray, even harsh language are all part of the arsenal.

Thanks to everyone for their efforts this summer. Things do look great.

Jesse and Michelle.
