Tall Squash Short Corn

Small garden with tomatoes, peppers, and squash only. Healthy Squash
Short row of Corn
We actually have two plots (gardens): a very small plot with tomatoes, squash, and peppers and a large plot with corn, potatoes, peas, etc. There is less than 20 yds between the two plots, but the soil is very different as evidenced by the plant production. Just look at this row of corn. I have never seen such short corn and notice how inconsistent the height is for each stalk. Some of it is only waist-high and has already tasseled. Weird. Now look at the squash. The stuff looks like it has been blasted with radiation; it is taking over everything and I think we will have enough to feed the whole county! Do you need some?
