Can't find any specific info on the Wades other than the comments/reviews on their website but other flints I have grown (Wilda, Bloody Butcher and Boone County) are all 110-115 DTM if that helps. I browsed through several other varieties of flint/dent/field corns and they all seem to fall within 115 days +/- 5 days. Dave

Sent you an email.

I am doing a larger amount of RI whitecap flint this year, last year only got a few ears. I used seed from last year that Jimster had sent me. I was surprised that the seed kept so well, near 100 percent germination. This is the variety that may well be the one used by the Wompanoags and Narragansett tribes at the time of the English incursion into cape cod. It's seeming to be better adapted than the dents I am growing here (better resistance to drought and insects, based on this season so far), which is maybe no big surprise. I have plantings of the same two dents as last year, from saved seed, Hickory King and Pencil Cob. HK got started very late, june 18th, and perhaps as a consequence is suffering some kind of insect damage. About 30% of the 1/2 acre planting affected so far. Maybe it will push through. Other than that it is catching up to size very fast due to the hot weather and some rain lately. I have pole beans on a couple of rows, Romano and an interesting Colombian heirloom that I got from a friend and havn't tried before. The bean looks like a Vigna but tastes like a Phaseolus (I ate some a few months ago, very tasty); the young plant looks like Vigna with the characteristic sharp leaves. Unusual item, we will see how it does in the frost-free season remaining. In the home garden I am trialing an heirloom sweet, Stowell's Evergreen, it is earing up now.

i hate to seem conter productuve but couldnt you use the spinach seeds you have? i would like to possibly trade but from what i saw the things were vaguely listed and some repeated multiple times
