Seminal Root growth has basically stopped. Growing point is below the soil surface. Frosts on the surface will not kill the plants. Freezing soil temps will kill the plant. Flooding can kill plants. Tassel development has started. Ear shoot formation has also started. To be certain about V-stages beyond V6: Split the entire stalk (from the tip to the roots) in half with a knife. The first five nodes will be clustered near the bottom of the stalk and the 6th node will be very close to the soil line. Count nodes above the 6th node to determine how many nodes are present. The total number of nodes equals the V-stage of the plant. For example 7 nodes =
