My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

base of corn stalk/roots exposed

18 years ago

I noticed what appears to be exposed and possibly infected roots on a few of my corn stalks. Have tried to find out what the problem is but am having a little trouble. Rootworm maybe? We have had a few rather windy storms lately and although some of my corn did lean over, these ones haven't. If anyone could tell me what they believe the problem is and whether I can do anything about it. I'm hoping it is no big deal but with plants it could range from no biggie to HORRIBLE!

thanks for any help
