Perfect Corn with no Pesticides

My neighbor gave us a bag of corn from his garden this weekend and it was the prettiest ears of corn I think I've ever seen. They were perfect ears with no signs of bugs at all. We took it home and put it straight on the stove for corn on the cob. Delicious!

When I asked him how he kept the worms off, he gave me his recipe. He fermented cabbage and hot peppers in water, strained off the solids and sprayed the silks with the liquid. Since my corn is getting close, I started a batch Sunday. Hopefully it will be ready to use soon.
