Life By You: Planting and Tending
As is common in many gardening games, crops that are planted require regular watering and weeding to mature into healthy adult plants that you can harvest. Each plant must be watered daily, but the time it takes for different plants to grow varies; typically, rarer plants require more time to reach maturity than their more common counterparts.
If weeds overrun a plant, it won’t die, but its growth will halt. Therefore, it’s advantageous to weed your garden swiftly to ensure continuous growth and timely harvesting. Neglecting weeding extends the time until you can harvest, which in turn delays any potential profits or meals you might gain from your garden.
Plants that lack sufficient water will eventually wither and die. Once a plant has withered completely, it cannot be revived and must be replaced with a new one.
For novices in gardening aiming to make it a primary source of income, it’s crucial to dedicate substantial time to garden maintenance. The reason is clear: skilled gardeners can extract more produce from a plant compared to those with lesser skills. Thus, enhancing your gardening expertise is highly beneficial.
For those who reach advanced levels of gardening skill, the ability to craft sprinklers becomes available. Unlike seeds, sprinklers can’t be bought; they must be crafted as a reward for developing your gardening skills. Crafting sprinklers might be costly, but for players intending to manage extensive farming operations, they are a worthwhile investment. Sprinklers provide a lasting solution to the watering needs of your garden, ensuring your plants remain hydrated indefinitely.
