I guess you mean "what did they plant?"

Each year an awari or ground-breaking ceremony was held before the planting of the crops, which was around the time the first leaves appeared on willows.

Corn was always the first crop, the kernels being soaked overnight in water. Next were beans, often mixed into the cornrows so the beans could climb up the cornstalks.

Last were pumpkins, squash and watermelons, always planted in separate patches.

Pawnee corn came in distinct varieties that were never mixed: blue corn, spotted corn, red corn, sweet corn and so on - maybe ten varieties in total.
