- Silks: Check the silks/long hair of the cob peeping out of the husk. If they are soft and light brown in color, the corn is fresh inside. But if the silks are dark brown in color and look dry then that means the corn is old.
- Husks: The green leaf like husks that wrap around the corn should be bright green free from lots of brown spots or little holes at the tops. Those little holes mean there are probably worms in the corn. The husks should be clinging to the corn wrapping it fairly tightly. If the husks are damp that is sign that the corn is fresh and a good pick. Avoid yellow pale looking husks. ALso look for mold signs.
