Ores and crafting resources
Gemcorn Orchard
A Gemcorn orchard turns acorns and gems into an underground source of gems and wood, useful for building and crafting over time.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Gemcorn Orchard
Underground or Cavern stone with open space for Gem Trees to grow.
Before you go
- Acorns and gems to make Gemcorns.
- An Underground or Cavern stone planting area.
- Room between planting spots for tree growth.
Farming steps
- Choose underground stone with open space around the intended orchard.
- Collect acorns and gems for the Gemcorns you plan to plant.
- Plant Gemcorns on stone underground, spacing the planting spots.
- Allow trees to mature rather than clearing them while small.
- Check the orchard periodically for mature Gem Trees.
- Chop mature trees to collect wood and gems.
- Replant with saved acorns and gems, keeping the area open.
- Use a straight stone shelf so empty spots and mature trees are easy to see.
- Keep a reserve of gems and acorns for replanting rather than spending the full harvest.
Repeat, collect and use
Harvest mature Gem Trees and replant Gemcorns. Each planting consumes an acorn and a gem, and underground placement and spacing are required.
Common mistakes
- Planting on surface stone; establish the orchard underground or in the Cavern.
- Crowding trees; leave room for them to mature.
- Spending every gem before replanting; reserve inputs to maintain the orchard.
When to stop or switch
Stop when gem and wood stock meets the crafting need. Leave the orchard planted if you expect to need more.
