Farming

Custom crops grow in real time, even while you're offline. Each crop has a best season, and the season changes how fast it grows and how much it gives.

How it works

Buy seeds from the Master Farmer and right-click them onto farmland. Crops keep growing while you're away. Look at a plant to see how far along it is.

Each season lasts 21 days. A crop in its best season grows faster and gives a bigger harvest. Other crops grow at normal speed, except in winter, when they grow slower and give less. Some seeds unlock at higher Farming levels.

The loop

1. Buy seeds from the Master Farmer that are in season now.
2. Plant them on your own claim so others can't harvest them.
3. Click a ripe crop to harvest it. You get produce and some seeds back.
4. Sell to the Greengrocer, or keep the produce for cooking and alchemy.
5. Your Farming level rises as you harvest. It lets you plant more plots and unlocks new seeds.

Where it leads

Crops go into most meals, wine and alchemy tonics, so farmers trade a lot with cooks and brewers. At Farming 10 you can buy a Harvest Core from the Master Farmer and build a farm golem that harvests and replants for you while you're online. Island crops grow only on the islands out at sea and sell for more. The Farmer's Path in /quests pays coins as you go.

In game, /guide explains every system and /menu opens them all.
