Planting


Start by placing Basic Soil Beds on your farm. These can be crafted using Silt x1, Sand x1, and Beech Log x1. Once placed, purchase seeds from Holly in Town Center to begin planting.

Watering


Crops need daily watering unless it rains. Use your watering can or unlock the Vertex Spell later for easier watering.

Fertilizer


The Magic Crop Swap Fertilizer is key to unlocking seasonal variations of crops. Apply it after planting for a chance to grow different varieties.
