Abstract
Abstract Snowbelle’ sweet corn was planted on 25 May, near Benson, NC. Single row plots, 10 ft long on 42 inch centers were replicated 4 times in a randomized complete block design. Alleys of 5 ft separated replicates. Treatments were applied using a CO2 pressurized backpack sprayer with a single hollow cone nozzle (18X) operating at 60 psi to apply 80 gal/ acre. Treatments were initiated at early tassel stage, and were applied 18, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29 Jul, 1, 3, 5, 8, 10, 13, and 16 Aug. All mature ears in each plot were harvested 11 and 17 Aug and scored for larval damage. Counts were combined, and the percent damaged ears determined.
