a grower just sent me these seeds. I've heard this variety produces giant kernels, but this is insane! The person who sent them to me says the plants only get 12 ft. tall and the ears only get 12 inch long. This variety grows only in a particular valley in Peru. I've been told that to get mature ears you need 180+ growing days. I'm going to have to tuck them in every night in New Jersey to get ears.
