Bro I think those are corn pollen sacks, no?
Yes they are, after looking more closely i realized that. As I said before its my first time trying to grow corn. So far its going pretty good for doller store seeds.
This is the first year I've tried a garden and these things have shown up on my corn and made their way to my cucumber plants too. Is there a safe way to get rid of them?
Thanks in advance
Dust the plants with Diatomaceous earth, or spray with neem oil/water or dish soap/water (one or the other not both, DE has to stay dry to be effective). I don't see any damage and it's hard to even tell what it is from the photo. Is there even any damage? Honestly, it just looks spent anthers. Good luck.
