33 Corn Seeds is a Common tier seed in Windrose used to grow Corn. Seeds are planted at a Seedbed and run on the shared crop growth cycle of roughly one hour of real time. Every harvest refunds one seed, so a single starting seed turns into a self renewing supply of Corn for cooking.

1414 Per harvest a planted Corn crop yields 2 to 4 Corn plus 1 Corn Seed. The crop uses the one hour real time growth cycle shared by every plant in Windrose, and growth continues while the game is closed. There is no watering, no fertilizer, no sunlight requirement, and no wilt state, so a Seedbed never needs daily attention.

1616 Plant the seed in a Seedbed, which is built from 5 Fertile Soil and offers four planting slots at its corners. Seedbeds unlock after defeating the Coastal Jungle boss Thomas Richards, and the Fertile Soil needed to build them is mined from the Ancient Farm ruins in the Foothills.

2424 Corn is widely regarded as one of the two strongest early Seedbed picks alongside Cocoplum, because the yield per cycle is high and the crop continues to bank seeds on every harvest. Pairing Corn with a ground crop such as Lime gives a balanced early food economy that costs almost no upkeep.
