100 days. Developed west of the Appalachians in the Ohio and W. Virginia area ~1830-50. A highly uniform, semi-dent corn. Solid blue, medium-sized ears on 7 ft. stalks, 1 ear/stalk. Originally developed as a meal and feed corn, it has a higher sugar content than most dent corns, and may be used as a table corn when harvested in the milk stage. When used for corn meal it has a sweet flavor. It mills easily and makes speckled blue and white flour, but if the bran is sifted out, a white flour is obtained. Older farmers who use this corn to feed chickens claim that the chickens will eat more, lay more eggs, and put on more meat. Resists lodging, and tolerates crowding and smut better than many other open pollinated corns. 

Contains 40 heirloom seeds

Ohio Blue Clarage Corn

this is a great dent corn. it's good for flour and if you want to feed your chickens with it they'll be pretty happy i imagine, although to my thinking it's a pretty expensive meal for them. the taste of the flour is a little bit sweet. it grew well without lodging. i would recommend this variety if you're looking for a good flour corn and i would further recommend that you buy your seed from Mary. She honest, fair and you'll be supporting a small business. i know i will be buying from her in the future.
