Flax can be found growing in the wild and can be harvested by breaking the flax plants with an empty hand, knife, or scythe. Fully mature plants will yield flax grain, flax fibers and at least one seed when harvested. Harvesting immature plants may yield no or little grain or fiber and may or may not provide a seed.
Flax can be found growing in the wild in temperate to warm climates and can be harvested by breaking the flax plants with an empty hand, knife, or scythe. Fully mature plants will yield flax grain, flax fibers and at least one seed when harvested. Harvesting immature plants may yield no or little grain or fiber and may or may not provide a seed.

Flax seeds can be used in [[farming]] and can be harvested in the same way as wild flax. Flax crops take 8.5 days to grow through nine growth stages, and use 50% K nutrients from their farm plot. They grow best in temperatures from -5 - 40°C.

Flax fibers can be harvested by breaking mature wild or farmed flax plants with an empty hand, knife, or scythe. They may or may not drop from breaking immature flax plants.

==Uses== <!--T:4-->
 
=== Food ===
Flax grain can be eaten without cooking with a satiety value of 30 but can also be ground into flour using a [[quern]] either manually or with automated [[Mechanical Power#Milling|milling]]. This flour, like flour from other grains, can be made into a dough with water which can then be baked into [[bread]]. Flax bread has a satiety value of 160. Flax grain can also be used as an ingredient in the [[cooking#Advanced Cooking Recipes|advanced cooking recipe]] for porridge.
