I have an accession of annual teosinte (Zea mays ssp. parviglumis), and am interested in propagating it next year. The accession is about 10 years old and due for a growout. If anyone here has experience growing teosinte in temperate climates, I would be very interested to hear any tips, caveats etc you may have that will increase my success. What sort of quantity and frequency of rain do they prefer, and what kind of soil do they do best in? I'm also concerned about unwanted cross-pollenation with the local farmers' corn...what's the best way to prevent it? Some sort of mesh enclosure? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
