I checked out my sweetcorn crop this evening to notice that all of it is absolutely covered in what looks like rust. I forgot to take a picture, but the spots are covering most, if not all leaves. The variety is an F1 super sweet one called tasty gold.
I didn't think rust was a problem with sweetcorn, given we had a very wet 6 weeks it doesn't surprise me too much, but I'll certainly look to buy a rust resistant variety next year. The corn are at least two weeks off and fingers crossed they can develop properly.
Any one else had this problem?
