Usually you take the tassels off to pollinate corn (you shake the tassels onto the silk) each of the silk hairs produces one kernel of corn. Also, Detasseling is done to cross-breed, or hybridize, two different varieties of corn. Corn is planted in alternating rows of different corn varieties. One variety is detasseled (tassels removed ) and is fertilized by the second variety to produce an improved hybrid.
