If you need more, just let me know.  I just shelled out the last of LAST 
year's crop and put up a couple hundred pounds of it.  And I haven't started 
harvesting this year's crop yet.  And even at that, I lost at least half this 
year's BB to the drought.  The other half did famously with lots of those fat 
10" 
ears, but half was on just a little drier ground and in midsummer it stunted 
beyond recovery.

All the Hickory King produced well, but, and I am supposing this is a 
function of the drought, every stalk put on ONE ear rather than the usual two.
