A Bit Nippy

It got a a little too chilly Saturday night for these corn plants. 100% of my corn was emerged, and 75-90% of the corn got nipped pretty hard here in NE Iowa. This is very similar to last years May 15 frost, and therefore I am not worried yet. It is not a good feeling to see your young, vigorous corn get killed off, but there is nothing I can do but wait and see how it comes out of it. Generally, the dead tissue tangles the new growth up a little, but nothing serious.
