Sweatcorn Stalk

Sweatcorn Stalk is a plant that produces Sweatcorn, a crisp vegetable that can be harvested as Food. The stalk yields edible Sweatcorn which functions as a basic crop for sustaining duplicant food requirements. Sweatcorn is harvestable directly from the plant and serves as an early, raw vegetable source.

Sweatcorn Stalks grow and can be harvested quickly; a mature plant yields harvestable Sweatcorn after a short growth period of three cycles. The plants commonly appear in large numbers at starting locations in the Prehistoric biome, making them a major early-game food source in that environment. Because of their rapid harvest cycle and initial abundance, Sweatcorn Stalks form a reliable staple crop during the early stages of a run in Prehistoric settings.

When processed in a smoker, harvested Sweatcorn can be converted into a cooked dish that provides morale benefits. Smoking Sweatcorn yields a cooked product that grants +4 morale at normal quality, making a smoker a useful complement to Sweatcorn cultivation for improving duplicant morale while increasing the food’s effectiveness.

• Sweatcorn is a raw, crisp vegetable harvested from Sweatcorn Stalks and used directly as Food or as an ingredient for cooked recipes.
• Plants reach harvestable maturity in three cycles, enabling rapid, repeated yields compared with many other crops.
• Prehistoric maps frequently contain abundant wild Sweatcorn, allowing players to secure a large, early food supply without immediate farming infrastructure.
• Use a smoker to convert Sweatcorn into a morale-boosting cooked food; pairing cultivation with smoking operations provides both sustenance and a morale benefit.
• Because Sweatcorn is an easy early crop, prioritize nearby stalks for harvesting and plan smoker capacity if you intend to turn raw harvests into cooked meals.
