The Spotted Dockleaf is a flora species found growing abundantly in caves, particularly in those of the Bulb Zone.
Using a knife, the player can harvest Spotted Dockleaf Seeds from it, which can then be planted in an Exterior Growbed. It takes 800 seconds (13:20 minutes) for a seed to grow into a mature plant.
Each plant can be slashed 8 times with the Knife, yielding a total of 9 seeds. This is because the last slash, destroying the plant itself, gives two seeds instead of one.
The Spotted Dockleaf serves only as decoration and has no crafting purpose.
Appearance
The Spotted Dockleaf consists of a cluster of bioluminescent leaves that grow upward, and get thicker towards the top. The tips of the leaves have a striped blue-dark blue pattern to them, while the lower ends are golden brown. They are spotted with bright blue dots.
Data Bank Entry
![]()
A simple aquatic plant. Chemicals within the leaves act to neutralize poisons and acids found in other local specimens, thereby actively encouraging predation by herbivores, albeit in small quantities. This ensures the plant both spreads its seed, but retains enough surface area on its leaves to survive itself.
