Vegetative Reproductive corn Development Stages VE Emergence V14 Fourteen- leaf R4 Dough Emergence occurs when the first leaves, Rapid Growth . This stage occurs Starchy material within the kernels has called the spike or the coleoptile, appear approximately two weeks before dough-like consistency (approximately above the soil surface. The seed absorbs flowering. Highly sensitive to heat and 26 to 30 days after R1). Rapid water (about 30% of its weight) and drought stress. Four to six extra leaves accumulation of starch and nutrients oxygen for germination. The radicle will expand from this stage until VT. occurs; kernels have 70% moisture root quickly emerges near the tip of the and begin to dent on the top.

Scout for insects (e.g., corn leaf aphid, western bean cutworm, corn earworm, fall armyworm) and diseases (e.g., gray leaf spot, southern rust, northern leaf blight). Total leaf defoliation severely affects final yields. R1 – Silking Flowering begins when a silk is visible outside the husks. The first silks to emerge from the husk leaves are
