early plantings with excellent yield potential |
|
|
| Sweet Ice is Harris Moran’s first white Sweet
Breed™ variety and a strong choice for early plantings. |
|
 Sweet Ice has outstanding overall quality with a strong plant and a refined
ear. Sweet Ice features early, mid-season maturity and Sweet
Breed™ performance. With better genetic seed quality than most se and sh2
varieties, this Sweet Breed™ variety gives you
the potential for good stand establishment and top yields.
Sweet Ice matures an attractive 7.5” - 8” ear in about 74 days. The husk has
good color and nice flags for consumer appeal and brisk sales. Very good husk cover
protects the ear from damage to produce a more consistent product. |
Sweet Ice has shown moderate
tolerance to Stewart’s Wilt and Common Smut, key qualities for a mid-early. Ears pick
easy and are well placed to reduce harvest labor. Sweet Ice is an excellent overall hybrid
with high scores in the field, at the store and on the table.
