            | PumpkinBrat | Paradise Mountain, New York | PumpkinBrat Waterville, New York ([email protected])The last few days have been not good here. I'm down to just two plants in my patch. I was hoping to have a great year growing eight plants.I've never had a problem with corn maggots. Maybe it's because of the corn field next to my patch and the farmer spreading a lot of fresh manure a few weeks ago. But i've also learned on a few web site, if you have a lot of organic matter in your soil, the corn maggots will live on organic matter in your soil... I hope and pray to god my last two plants don't get hit......
