Nutrients also play a role in determining how plants grow, but these can be supplemented with fertilizers. Depending on how close the given values are to the plant's requirements, the Display of the Soil Sampler will tell you if these values are above or below the Minimum / Optimal / Maximum value for this specific plant. Both variables must match your crop's requirements as closely as possible in order for your farm to be successful. There are two main factors to consider when deciding where to plant your crops: Temperature and Moisture. For this, you can use the Soil Sampler on already existing Plants to check their needs or refer to the map's crop yield potentials. This will give you a good start until you are able to make the Soil Sampler.Īfter planting new crops or changing the soil condition in any other manner, it will take a few minutes for the Soil Sampler to show the updated statistics.Ĭhoosing where to plant īefore you begin planting, learn a little bit more about which plants grow well where. Planting crops in high yield potential areas will successfully produce and have higher total yield per plot. Yield potential is an indication of % match in the soil conditions for each specific plant. Until this skill is learned, you can look at the map to see where certain crops will grow well by clicking on the right arrow, going to the bottom of the list, and finding things like "plants -> yield potential -> (plant's name)". Note that one does not need specialize in Fertilizers to craft it, only read the skill scroll. While the Hoe can be crafted from the start at the Workbench, the Soil Sampler needs to be built at a Tool Bench after learning the corresponding Fertilizers Skill. The two essential tools for farming are the Soil Sampler and the Hoe.
