Specialty Gardening: Multiple Stalks of Corn Growing from Each Seed, 0 by joekun

I'm growing corn in my homemade EB. I planted 12 seeds and got 12 seedlings. Since the corn has grown larger I now have what looks like 2-3 additional stalks growing from the same plant (one of them has a flower coming out of the top even though it's only 2' tall), please see the picture. What I'm wondering is, is this normal? Should I be concerned? Are these going to effect the size or quality of the ears? Should I cut these off?

Thanks!
