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.
