Planter Pots turn eligible gathered plants into a renewable home supply. The useful cycle begins with a plant you can convert into seed and ends when you harvest mature crops for crafting or meals.

WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Where to farm
At your estate garden or another base with Planter Pots; gather initial plant ingredients in the wild.
Build a small crop cycle around a specific ingredient rather than planting whatever you find. Confirm that the plant can produce seed, refine it, cultivate it in a compatible Planter Pot, and return harvested output to the recipes that use it.
A Planter Pot appropriate for the crop you plan to grow.
Eligible plant ingredients that can be refined into seeds.
Access to the refining station and recipe needed to make those seeds.
Choose an ingredient used by a recipe you expect to make, then confirm it is eligible for seed refining.
Gather enough of that plant in a suitable Realm to start the seed batch while retaining any ingredient you need for immediate crafting.
At your estate, use the appropriate station to refine eligible plants into seeds.
Place the seed in a compatible Planter Pot and check the crop’s displayed needs or condition.
Provide the required growing conditions; use available realm weather support only when its effect is clear in game.
Wait for the crop to reach harvestable state, then collect its output from the pot.
Use part of the harvest in recipes and reserve eligible output to refine into the next seed batch.
Farming tips
Planter Pots do not make every wild plant farmable; verify seed eligibility before gathering a large starter stack.
Keep one labeled reserve of seed or planting material so crafting does not consume the whole crop line.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat by reserving some harvest for seeds and planting again. This is renewable only for eligible plants and depends on successful growth and keeping seed stock.
Common mistakes
Planting an ineligible ingredient: confirm it can be refined into seed before committing pot space.
Spending the full harvest on recipes: retain enough material to restart the crop cycle.
Ignoring crop-specific conditions: check the pot or plant state and adjust conditions before waiting for another harvest.
When to stop or switch
Stop expanding a crop when your storage reserve covers planned recipes and you can maintain a seed reserve; use the space for a different ingredient if demand changes.
