Hows it taste? I just grew 2 cobs my first try and one wasnt full enough so ill save for seed. Do people eat these like cork on the cob or are they mainly for tortas/flour?
Hello - very good question. I will find out from the Hopi farmer the actual varieties but the simple answer would be blue, red, and white corn but of course their are the blended variety - red w/ white and white with blue. One thing I know for certain the seeds go way way back.
@@johnlegrand3715 oh cool beans I would love to grow that here in Texas, the Rio grande valley with less water I hear it's also okay for them to grow. Pass me your email
An authentic portal of the Hopi's spiritual reverence for corn. Janice is deeply immersed in Hopi culture and I am grateful she is willing to share her wisdom.
I would love to know how to contact Mr Day .... I've been looking for copies of his Pet Report.... Please email me his info if possible ... contact is in the about section on this profile ... thank you!
In Aruba, we live in a similar climate, people say the land is not fertile and can not bear seeds, yet we have many plants in nature... people are just not planting right like the way nature does... I can see from here that the soil in the video is fertile, you can see it is dry, but also a hint of soft moisture just a bit below the surface
Hello purroudbeauty - pretty crippy trip (10 times) Some people don't - they are the ones who haven't stepped out of the illusion...the others do - restored. I enjoyed reading your declaration of personal beliefs...I share similar ones.
Pretty crippy trip (say 10 times out loud) between dimensions. No one speaks or looks the other in the eye, exept for that creepy guardian, awaiting them. It's like crossing river Styx, I wonder: do any of these people ever return??
I come from Melbourne Australia and i have 11 blue corn seeds in my hand next to me as i type. I am going to plant them to see if they grow. The sandy soil and arid conditions are similar to much of the Australian continent but i was shocked to see the beautiful seedlings emerge and grow and the care that you gave them, out of the dry soil. That is a true miracle. If i can only get one cob to be able to replant them later i would be so happy. It is getting cold here in April so I am going to wait until the last cold days go in our spring in September. I wish to come to the United States one day and visit the Hopi Mesa's. Good greetings from down under.
you probably dont care at all but does any of you know of a way to log back into an instagram account..? I was stupid lost the login password. I would appreciate any help you can give me!
@Roberto Davian thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
"One for the cutworm, one for the crow, one to rot, and one to grow" that is the 4 to the hill mantra to the earth the the Native populace on the east coast taught to the white farmers. It's rumored that the mantra was born in the Mayan culture and brought to North America by the ancestors of the Hopi. Have the Hopi always planted 10 to the hill? perhaps it's needed due to the rough climate on the mesa.
rod2155 Hello....Im very much interested on Ur comment about the mayan culure in regard to the Hopi can U point out where i can find that type of information or someone that might Know..?
