Great looking plots. Growing plants is a joy, and having deer, turkeys, songbirds, and other wildlife use them is a bonus. With your attitude,your plots will be a success. Some people have unrealistic expectations and not nearly as much energy and enthusiasm as you.

Haystack is right on with the sh2 hybrids, they need warm soil- 65+ soil temp is best. We have real problems with raccoons in sweetcorn. A battery powered electric fence 6-8 inches off the ground works great for them! Sh2's do require isolation. Ten day maturity difference should work,and/or field corn is accross the plot from the sweetcorn.
