In-Game Text "All that is very well.' answered Candide, but let us cultivate our garden." -Voltaire, Candide What a more humble joy to the well-off pilgrim than a well-kept garden to soothe the mind and relax the muscles. Gardening allows you to plant wild plants acquired through foraging in Gardening pots. The pots need to be prepared with humus and water before anything can be planted in them. How to Plant in a Gardening Pot Select 1x Humus and left-click it onto your Gardening Pot. If not, Select a Vessel with at least .20L of filled with Potable Water and left-click it onto your Gardening Pot. A Gardening Pot can hold up to 1L of Potable Water. Each planting will reduce the filled amount by .20L. Select the Potable item you wish to plant and left-click it onto your Gardening Pot. Planting in Gardening Pots lowers Insanity. Wait 3 days. Learning the Horticulture and Green Thumb Skills, as well as using the Store bought Gardener's Pot will reduce the time for plants to ripen. Once ripe, the plant's model will change. The Yield for non-bushes and Trees is two, unless you had the Store bought Garden Shovel equipped when planting in which case the default Yield is 3. When planting you will receive a bonus Yield which is determined by chance and your Herbs & Sprouts Proficiency. You will see your bonus Yield pop up in green as you add your Potable plant. At any point you may check the current Yield by right-clicking on your planted Gardening Pot. Ripe plants can now be picked by right-clicking the Gardening Pot and selecting "Pick". Bushes and Trees which have sprouted can be planted by Lifting the Gardening Pot and then right-clicking the ground and selecting "Plant". For Bushes and Trees there is a chance for your planting will fail and you will instead receive a single Branch. This chance is determined by your Herbs & Sprouts and Natural Philosophy Proficiencies and additionally for some Trees, the Flora & Fauna of the pilgrim who took the Cutting. Stages of a Garden Pot Empty Gardening Pot. Gardening Pot once you've added Humus. Gardening Pot once it's been watered. Gardening Pot planted with Peppers. Gardening Purity Three factors influence Gardening Purity. The Purity of the Humus, the Purity of the Plant, and the Purity of the Gardening Pot. The Harvested Plant will be the average Purity of these three factors weighted towards the Humus. The formula is: Resulting Plant = ((Humus*2)+Pot+Initial Plant)/4. Any time the Resulting Plant's Purity is higher than the Gardening Pot's, the Gardening Pot's Purity will permanently increase by up to 2.56%. You may check your Gardening Pot's Purity by right-clicking it.
