![]() ![]() You have to plant them yourself!Īnd some seeds can’t be gathered or bought from vendors at all, but have to be produced through crossbreeding two other seeds with Advanced Gardening (see below.) The only source for seeds from rare crosses are players, meaning that if you don’t make them yourself, you’ll have to buy them at the Market Board and pay whatever the going rate is, which can be extremely high for exotic in-demand seeds!īasic gardening is straightforward. Similarly, seeds to grow chocobo dye fruits can only be bought from the Hunt Billmaster at your Grand Company HQ for Allied Seals (not gil!): These seeds can’t be sold or traded after purchase. This vendor also sells fishmeal for fertilizing. This is the only place to get Krakka Root seeds. Krakka Root seeds, for example, can’t be gathered or made with crossing, but are purchased from the Material Supplier vendor at the Dappled Stalls in the Lavender Beds. Other seeds may not be native to Eorzea, forcing you to buy them from vendors. Some of the more common seeds can now be gathered multiple times and gathering skills can be used to increase the total seeds gathered each attempt. You only get one bag of seeds per node, enough to plant one bed. Many basic crop seeds can be gotten by using the Botany skill and looking for seeds that show up every now and then in normal botanist gathering nodes, like this: You typically find crop seeds in the same place you find the crops, just at a lower frequency. Now that you have the soil you need, the next thing to get are your seeds. Since this guide was created the number of Grade 1 and Grade 2 soils that a retainer can bring back for one venture has been increased. A mining retainer can bring back one sack of soil every hour or so at a cost of one venture. (This is my favorite method.) As a last resort you can buy topsoil off the Market Board. (Check your gathering log for locations.) Gathering Grade 3 Thanalan Topsoil from a timed node.Īnother way to gather topsoil is to level a mining retainer and pay ventures to have your retainer go out and dig it up for you, if you’ve gathered it yourself once. The Grade 1 and Grade 2 topsoils are infrequent drops from normal mining nodes, and the Grade 3 topsoil drops from timed nodes. Grade 3 topsoil should be used whenever possible to maximize the soil effects. Potting soil: Very cheap and available from housing vendors, but has no bonuses at all.Įach topsoil comes in three “Grades,” with Grade 1 being the poorest and Grade 3 being the best.Thanalan Topsoil: Increases the chances that two seeds will cross-fertilize.Shroud Topsoil: Increases the crop yield (except for exotic seeds - see the notes below!) Use this for basic gardening.La Noscean Topsoil: Increases the chances that your crops will be High Quality.Yes, there’s dirt there already, but the crops won’t grow without an additional layer of topsoil that you have to provide. ![]() Once you have a garden plot, the next step it to get soil for it. You can get flower seeds, pomace, pots, and potting soil from the Housing Vendors in the housing zones.) Flower seeds can produce different flowers by the type of “pomace” you put on them. Flower plants can also be used to grow flower seeds, which can’t be grown in the garden. Pots can be used in rooms, houses, and apartments to grow plants, but NOT to do crossing. (*Note: Since this guide was written, Flower Pots have been added to the game. Here’s a typical garden plot with crops in various stages of growth. Each garden plot has eight available beds for planting, arranged around a central scarecrow. In order to set up a garden plot, you first need to purchase a house, then buy and install one or more garden plots on your estate.* Small houses can have one plot medium houses can have two and large houses can have three. You can also get fertilizer but it’s completely optional. In order to garden, you need three things: Advanced Gardening: Allows you to do cross-fertilization to produce rare seeds and grow exotic plants for use by various crafters.Basic Gardening: Allows you to grow crops for use by culinarians and chocobos.Gardens in FFXIV have two functions (as of Patch 3.25): ![]()
