In-Game Text
"I shall only instance in one delight more, the most natural and best-natured of all others, a perpetual companion of the the husbandman; and that is, the satisfaction of looking round about him, and seeing nothing but the effects and improvements of his own art and diligence; to be always gathering of some fruits of it, and at the same time to behold others ripening, and others budding: to see all his fields and gardens covered with the beauteous creatures of his own industry; and to see, like God, that all his works are good."
–Abraham Cowley, Of Agriculture
Truly a Pilgrim who has attained the Green Thumb has surpassed the study of gardening and is now attuned to the art of nature's own rhythm. He is an avatar of creation, a sage of seeds, and a grower of all things. A Green Thumb coaxes plants into ripening faster than ever before!
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".
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.
