Probly do to maturity. Open up the husks and be ready to pick if you are to eat it. I hope it is not dented.

Sorry, don;t have any husks yet. Someone told me it might be due to too much manure( sheep) I think gary laid it on a little thick?? He thinks lime will help it???? Merry

Lack of water? Have you side-dressed it with fertilizer? Lack of nitrogen could be another reason.
