I've never grown corn in raised beds, and wondering if it would be feasible to do so. I saw a video on you tube where a person planted 52 plants in a 4' x 8' bed. I'll be doing a 4' x 4' bed so it would be 26 plants per bed, with an 8" spacing between plants and 6 plants per 'row'.

Would this be too much for a 4' x 4' bed? The variety I'll be planting is called blue jade, which is a dwarf variety; I found some info out about it on a gardening site where you can purchase the seed. The plants only reach 3'-4' in height and with planting instructions it says 8" apart.

Planting the corn in the ground isn't an option because the land still isn't ready; I don't have time to do so because where I am at (Brooksville FL, growing zone 9) I am already getting a late start. I recently relocated about a month ago, so that is why I'm getting such a late start.
