This is not a complete question. Do you mean was the popcorn shipped to a tropical climate? Yes it was.

The continents are divided into 'plant zones'. The colder the area the lower the number. Family in Nebraska need plants zoned for 5-6. I live in south, central Texas and need plants for 8-9. This means plants have a better chance of survival if tolerant for those places. This is a guide only. You still need to make sure that your plant is planted in right soil, humidity and in an area that has minimal hours of sunlight. You can go to arborday.org. There is a free tree info place you can type in your zip code. Your plant zone will be shown. In my part of Texas, the amount of sun is important due to the heat index. So I pick plants that can tolerate a 10 rating. You can cheat. If you live in a cool zone and want a plant that prefers heat; plant it so it gets west sun and in an area that gets no north wind in winter. Here if I want a cool tolerant plant, I do the opposite.

According to readings on-line this answer would depend on where the plant grew.

I believe the teak for this product is harvested on a plantation in Zimbabwe. For more information I would suggest contacting House of Teak http://www.houseofteak.co.zw/ and Fair Trade Africa http://www.fairtradeafrica.net/networks-and-partners/partners/

I feel this grinder will work on just about any crop or product as the blades are easily adjustable. You can grind kennels of corn from just cracking the seed to grind corn meal. You will have to stage it down by cracking the corn first and then tightening the grinder to make a scratch grain of the corn and then close the blades to tightest setting and you will have corn meal. Coffee beans would not be a problem in just one step.

I haven't grown mine yet, but if you do some research, you will see it is a tropical, and even the little bit of frost will kill it. I plan on growing mine indoors.

Withoutseeing the dark spots, I would not be able to identify their cause. You might try to find it on Google, or take the corn to your local extention agent for examination...

I am growing them in Honduras, San Pedro Area, and they are doing very well. Did have to use the netting to lessen the effects of the sun.

I heard about this and hear they reseed and grow easily in Mexico. They are in many Mexican recipes. I would think you would need a good hot summer season and a trellis situation. Save seeds and replant for warm season. Have not grown yet .

The corn is thriving. I just bought another earthbox. I got a shoe box filled with seeds I don't know what I'll plant next. I really like this system.

I've not been to Africa with it but it works well in south texas which has similar humidity

Can't really say. The thing to remember is that lowering temp for each 5 degrees can add several years to the seeds viability. Note: corn found in Egyptian tombs have been germinated. you are looking at 3000 year old seed. Older seeds usually have higher faulure rates. This is normal. So just take care of them and keep them cool. The 5 years they say, can bee extended a lot.

It shouldn't to my knowledge. I live in South Dakota and have had nothing but success with these products. The Company is located in Lewisville, Tx so would assume that the vegetation and climate are somewhat similar. I would call the companies 800 number and they can tell you for sure. They have always been more than willing to answer my questions.

I'm not an expert but I think if you cover the seed and keep it moist. But generally early spring and late summer is the accepted norm.

I live in the RGV of Texas. I only have a home garden but am planning to attempt to gropw a little in a bucket this fall. Not even corn in the fields is growing well with the heat we have had this summer. Last winter was cold. I'll let you know.

Sorry, I don't know if it would or not. I am only familiar with the climate around Pittsburgh, PA. I would suggest contacting someone at a botanical garden in your area or in the Botany Department of your local university for an answer.

Now that I have the bag in front of me, it VERY CLEARLY identifies this as a product of Colombia, not Venezuela, regardless of which country most uses it. Colombia first allowed planting of GMO corn in 2007 and continues to allow it to this day. Therefore, especially because it is well known that non-GMO crops become contaminated GMO ones, one must assume that this indeed uses GMO corn. I'm throwing mine away.
