Spiked Horn Grass is a mid-sized decorative flora species found in abundance on the shallower part of the Sea Treader's Path biome. By striking it with a knife, Spiked Horn Grass Seeds can be obtained.

Each Spiked Horn Grass can be cut 8 times before being destroyed, giving 9 seeds in total. This is because the last knife hit grants 2 seeds instead of one. The seeds can be planted in an Exterior Growbed or an Alien Containment. It takes 800 seconds ( 13:20 minutes ) for a mature plant to grow from a seed.

As mentioned above, the Spiked Horned Grass is only meant for decoration and has no use in crafting.

Appearance[]
