Corn is pollinated by the wind, not bee's, not sure what that person meant.

I'm not sure where he got that idea or exactly what he meant either. I know corn is pollinated by the wind but the tassles are usually full of honeybees anyway. At least that's how mine is. I don't understand at all how the fertilizer would change the pollen to make it toxic to bees. Makes no sense to me. But I'm not a botanist or horticulturalist, just a gardener. Since I'm not receiving many replies on this, I'm thinking maybe everybody else thinks it's a ridiculous idea too. Which is what I was trying to find out.

Thanks for replying Justin.

Not much surprises me anymore when it comes to a small ecosystems. There could be a direct link and we may not know for ages. If you hear anything else post it here!

I wasn't having many bees around my place, but now I'm covered up with them and they are working their little hearts out. I wonder to if it might not have been pesticides....I try not to use them, but sometimes you have to...
