I cultivated my sweetcorn the last 2 years, no spray. Corn did better than the previous 2 years when I sprayed. I was able to water it. Seems the key is to have the correct speed and shovel spacing so you toss dirt to the rows to bury the weeds ya dont pull up. If I had heavier soils where my corn is going to go and we had rainy summers again I think I would cultivate half the feilds this coming year, but with my sandy soils and lack of rain the last 10 years I'll just do some good spring tillage and spray preemergent. Any one ever have luck seeding in rye in fall and planting directly into the rye, then spray the rye down before it'll hurt the corn. That rye sure seems to keep the weeds from coming up.May try it on 3 acres this spring.
