Corn Stalk

Corn stalks are vegetation plants that produce corn. When mature, a corn stalk will eventually reduce to a young stalk to begin a new growing cycle, dropping an ear of corn in the process.

Appearance

Mature corn stalks have a tall growth height, typically taller than a Blockhead but always functionally two blocks tall. Green leaves are affixed to the stem with several yellow ears developing above the leaves. At the apex is a tassel consisting of an inflorescence of yellow flowers.

Young corn stalks are the same light green in color, but lack the bulk and yellow ears.

Where Found

Corn stalks can be found in temperate biome regions or be grown by methods of farming.

Farming

Corn stalks are primarily used for the production and farming of corn. Corn can be planted in a block of dirt or compost to produce additional corn stalks and yielding more corn. Harvesting of corn is achieved by using a machete on a mature corn stalk.
