Your corn may need nitrogen to fully grow. Have you considered doing a "3 sisters" garden? The beans and pumpkins will feed the soil with nutrient the corn needs.

    I have actually, a few years back. Things grew okay, I think. With my mother's claim of a native great(x4) grandmother and growing up near a bunch of native American historical areas, I learned about planting methods pretty early, and I've tried a few different gardens over the years. I have pretty bad adhd though and it usually doesn't go well... My longest lived plant was a dracaena marginata that I made the mistake of asking my parents to care for, and returned after 8 months to find out they didn't water it a single time. I had that thing for over a decade...

    There's a TON of clover in my yard, since I don't really mow often (if I could, I'd only mow up against the house to keep pests away and leave everything to grow with native plants) and clover seems to pop up everywhere I mow. The wildflowers near the clover all look amazing in spring.

    Sorry for rambling a bit, I might be a little toasty.
