A corn stalk is one stalk in a bundle of corn stalks, which is called a shock of corn. I looked it up in the dictionary....I learn something every day! :o)
Come to find out, a bundle of any type of grain is called a shock.
By the way, peeling away the husk of corn is called "shucking" corn.
Stalks, shocks, and shucking...awwww, shucks!

A corn stalk is a single plant. A corn shock is a bunch of stalks tied together. The covering on the corn ear is called a husk. You husk corn by removing the husk and silk. You shuck corn by removing the kernels from the cob.

Corn grows on a corn stalk, when the corn is picked and prepared for cooking, removing everything around the corn, it is called shucking corn.

That would be the corn stalk. What the corn grows on. The "shuck" /"shock" is the is the leafy covering around an ear of corn
