Feel the cob - are all the kernels full and plump from bottom to top? If the top or bottom few rows of kernels feel small or under developed, that's ok if the majority feel plump. The last test is to squish one of the plump kernels. If its thick and milky coming out, its ripe. If its watery, its not ready yet.
