N2  - The water-soluble polysaccharide content of nine sweet corn cultivars planted at three different times was determined. The use of water-soluble polysaccharide to estimate maturity of sweet corn cobs for freezing was substantiated by comparing water-soluble polysaccharide with moisture content of the nine cultivars. When cobs matured under the relatively higher temperatures of the earlier sowing dates, there was a more rapid increase in water-soluble polysaccharide in relation to loss in moisture.
