How to Garden
Сrеdit gоеs to fps!
Build a garden plot:
- Small ones costs 10 wood planks and grows 1 plant.
- Large ones costs 18 wood planks and grows 2 plants.
Buy seeds at the general store:
- Come in packs of 10.
- Plant seed into plot.
- Take a water bucket and water seed.
- Plant drinks water & advances growth every 5 in-game minutes.
- Only when the sun is out (6:00 – 20:00).
- Don’t let the water level get too low.
- Once the growth bar is 100 it’s ready to harvest.
- Most plants provide multiple harvests without replanting (2 harvests per seed).
- If the grey bar is full, the plant is dead – remove it.
- Fertilizer makes plant grow faster ( you can get it from the general store).
- Automatic sprinklers need to be within radius of the water windmill (you can get it from the general store).
