After wrapping up the Grell quest A Frozen Friend, you will encounter Flammo. Flammo is a hot-headed character who will give you A Spicy Encounter quest. Flammo craves a spicy meal that needs to be crafted with some unusual ingredients. Among these, are five Flame Hearts which prove to be the trickiest to get.

Growing Flame Hearts on your farm isn’t as straightforward as planting regular seeds. It requires a bit of magic and some special preparations. Here is the step-by-step that you need to follow:

  1. Prepare the Soil: Use Fae Soil Beds or the Elven Farmstead. Fae Soil Beds need crafting using Shade Jelly, Flutterwood Log, and Spriggan Leaf.
  2. Plant Cauliflower: Surprisingly, Flame Hearts start as humble cauliflower. Purchase seeds from Holly’s Seed Shop in town.
  3. Apply Magic Fertilizer: Use Magic Crop Swap Fertilizer on the planted cauliflower. This special fertilizer can be bought or crafted at the Garden Bench.
  4. Water and Wait: Keep those crops hydrated! It usually takes about four in-game days for the transformation to complete.

The magic fertilizer isn’t always reliable, so it’s a good idea to plant extra cauliflower. Growing 10-15 plants increases your chances of getting the five Flame Hearts you need.

Growing extra Flame Hearts is a smart move. Pop some in the Seed Maker to skip the transformation process next time. Learning to grow Flame Hearts opens up new options in Fae Farm. With these spicy crops, Flammo’s Spicy Encounter quest becomes much easier, and you can move forward in the magical world of Fae Farm.
