excellent!

We have grown this corn for the last 3 years. It is always wonderfully sweet, and we love it! Most of the time, our neighbors get a small corn crop, and this variety gives us at least double what everyone else is getting! It freezes well, blanched, and cut off of the cobs. Would recommend to everyone!!!

We first tried this corn with other varieties. This was by far the best tasting one. This year we planted the bi-color and the yellow seed, and still prefer the bi-color. Freezes exceptionally well, tastes like fresh corn. We are happy with our yield, and will only plant the bi-color northern corn from here on out.

Great germination in cool soil. Taste was marginal at best, not sweet. Very fine line between ripe and tough. Bodacious planted 7 days later, was ready only 10 days behind it in readiness. Bodacious blows this corn out of the water in every respect. This year I will wait a few days for the better corn.
