Plant some corn

Is this true or a fake rumor? I planted corn after i saw this, but now I got Brandine and need to plant tomacco, and don't know whether to cancel it or not? I don't want to wait 80 more days before i can do Brandine's quests, and I don't want to cancel it if it finishes early because of an event. :?:

I was Googling something and came across a webpage that advised planting corn right now because the Valentine's update might require you to plant something and whatever was growing would auto-complete.

I've already done it. I figure it can't hurt to try. I can always:
A: just let it grow and not have to deal with the farm for the next three months
B: store the farm

Plus I have Marge the Witch in my Premium game and could speed up the crop several times a day.
