Transplant Grass Tufts and Saplings
Camp-side grass and saplings provide a convenient source of plant materials while preserving more distant patches for later trips.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Transplant Grass Tufts and Saplings
Separate, reachable rows around a protected camp perimeter.
Before you go
- A Shovel for digging tufts and saplings.
- Manure, Rot, or Guano to fertilize transplanted grass tufts.
- Room near camp to plant and revisit the rows.
Farming steps
- Find a safe grassland or forest patch with tufts and saplings you can move.
- Dig the chosen plants with the Shovel and carry them back to camp.
- Plant grass tufts and saplings in separate rows so their harvests are easy to manage.
- Immediately fertilize each transplanted grass tuft after planting.
- Harvest grass or twigs only when you need them for a craft, fuel, or other use.
- Leave some plants unharvested so the camp supply is not depleted all at once.
- Return to the rows later and gather regrown materials as needed.
- Keep a reserve row for future rope, fuel, and twig needs instead of harvesting the whole planting in one visit.
- Keep the plants accessible and away from likely fire hazards; avoid layouts that make it hard to tend individual plants.
Repeat, collect and use
Return to collect regrown plant materials while plants remain established. Transplanted grass needs fertilizer after planting; winter conditions can limit growth, so the setup is not a year-round guarantee.
Common mistakes
- Forgetting to fertilize transplanted grass: apply fertilizer just after planting each tuft.
- Treating saplings like grass tufts for fertilizer requirements: reserve the transplant fertilizer step for grass tufts.
- Harvesting every plant at once: take only what the next task needs and retain a reserve.
When to stop or switch
Pause collection once your immediate craft or fuel need is met. Switch to another supply source if plants are not regrowing in the current conditions, then return when growth resumes.
