Sweetcorn for winter use.

Has anyone any easy, and I emphasise easy, ways of storing sweetcorn for winter use.

I recently tried microwave with husk on and it came out just right, but can I just put the cob in the freezer with the husk on?
I have a feeling the leaves might just go black and soggy when they thaw out, but is there another way of doing it?
Not keen on messing around trying to get the whole corn from the cob and then just freezing the kernels.

 

I've frozen them just as they were when short of time. No problems apart from potentially also freezing any bugs at the same time.

 

Another sweetcorn question.

I've got three different varieties this year, dont ask why, its a germination problem, but anyway I now have three different varieties on the go.
Recently come across that some varieties affect others regarding pollination and some should not be grown close to each other.

I have Golden gate f1 super sweet.
Lark f1 not super sweet.
Ovation f1 super sweet.

Apparently super sweet varieties should not be mixed with other types.

Has anyone else come across this?

 

@pete

I have heard of this, but can't really remember the details.
Something like if pollinated by a non super sweet variety, the super sweet comes out less sweet, but no reason was given.

 

I did find this on the RHS site "Cross-pollination between ‘supersweet’ varieties and standard varieties can result in starchy kernels with poor flavour, so avoid growing both nearby. A similar problem can happen when growing sweetcorn near maize crops or ornamental maize varieties."
Again no why given.

 

Yes I cant seem to find anything concrete on the subject just its all a bit unclear, I hadn't thought of this when I bought the seeds my main thought was different varieties might ripen at different times and not all come at once.
