Discover how to get Growshroom in Once Human, the farming methods, and the top mushroom cave locations in the game.

Growshrooms are valuable deviants in Once Human that assist players with farming tasks. These helpful creatures can significantly boost crop production by planting seeds and harvesting mature plants automatically. For players looking to streamline their farming process, obtaining a Growshroom is a game-changer. This guide will explore the methods to acquire Growshrooms and the best locations for mushroom farming.

How to Get Growshroom in Once Human

Growshrooms are acquired through a straightforward yet luck-based method. You must harvest mushrooms found throughout the game world first. Each time a mushroom is picked, there’s a chance of obtaining a Growshroom. The drop rate is estimated to be between 2% to 10%, based on player experiences.

It’s worth noting that the source of the mushrooms doesn’t matter. Whether harvesting wild mushrooms or those grown on a personal farm, the chance of obtaining a Growshroom remains the same.

To increase the odds of obtaining a Growshroom, players should focus on areas with high mushroom concentrations. Two prime locations stand out:

The Mushroom Cave


Located near Sunbury, this cave system is a mushroom paradise. To reach the Mushroom Cave:

  1. Head to the southern part of Broken Delta, near the large lake bordering Chalk Peak.
  2. Look for the small village south of Sunbury.
  3. Enter through the cliff entrance.
  4. Alternatively, use the eastern entrance beside the main road into Sunbury.

The Mushroom Cave is particularly noteworthy. With approximately 30 mushroom spawns that respawn quickly, it’s an ideal spot for efficient farming.

This area offers multiple mushroom spawns along the tracks.

Growshrooms should be placed in an Incubation Chamber within the player’s base. They will then roam farmland, planting seeds, and harvesting crops. Players can adjust their activity frequency through deviant power settings.

While Growshrooms are incredibly useful, they have some quirks to keep in mind:

  • They harvest all fully grown crops indiscriminately, which may interfere with other deviants like Buzzy Bees.
  • They don’t apply fertilizer or water plants.
  • Setting their power requirement high can help manage their harvesting frequency.

For optimal farming, consider using Growshrooms during offline periods for automated harvesting. When actively playing, manual crop management allows for better synergy with other deviants and more controlled fertilizer use.

Acquiring a Growshroom may take some time and patience, but the benefits to farming efficiency make the effort worthwhile. Happy mushroom hunting!
