==Overview==
Every week, each alliance hosts a '''Weekly Contest''' where townships compete to earn the most points by completing specific foundation-related objectives. The contest type changes weekly based on player voting, and the '''top 3 townships''' in each alliance receive rewards.

==How It Works==

===Voting System===
* At the '''start of each week''', players receive '''3 random contest options''' to vote on
* The contest with the '''most votes''' becomes the '''active contest''' for that week
* Current week's contest '''cannot''' appear in next week's voting pool

===Contest Types===
There are '''12 different weekly contest types''':
* '''11 Foundation-Specific Contests''' – Points earned by completing requisition orders from a single foundation
* '''1 Special Contest (Foundation Frenzy)''' – Points earned by completing requisition orders from '''ANY''' foundation

===Point Scoring===
Points are awarded when turning in requisition orders '''during the matching contest''':

{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"
! Requisition Tier !! Points Awarded
|-
| Common || 1
|-
| Uncommon || 2
|-
| Rare || 3
|-
| Epic || 5
|-
| Legendary || 8
|}

===Township Ranking===
* All citizens' contest points contribute to their '''township's total score'''
* At the end of the week, townships are ranked '''within their alliance'''
* '''Top 3 townships''' in each alliance receive rewards

==Rewards==

===1st Place Township===
* '''10,000 Gold''' added to township coffer

===2nd Place Township===
* '''5,000 Gold''' added to township coffer

===3rd Place Township===
* '''2,500 Gold''' added to township coffer

==Contest Types==

Riggz: /* Weekly Voting */

{|align=right
|__TOC__
|}

= Townships & Alliances =

Project Ultima’s Township and Alliance systems are seasonal, server-wide frameworks that drive weekly voting, buffs, dungeon rotations, and elections. Information on this page reflects the latest admin announcements.

== Alliances and Towns ==
; [[Brit-Trin Alliance]]
* [[Britain]]
* [[Trinsic]]
* [[Serpent's Hold]]

; [[Minoc Federation]]
* [[Minoc]]
* [[Cove]]
* [[Moonglow]]
* [[Nujel'm]]

; [[Yew Rebellion]]
* [[Yew]]
* [[Skara Brae]]
* [[Jhelom]]

; Lawless Zone (not in Alliances)
* [[Buccaneer's Den]]
* [[Haven]]
* [[Magincia]]

----

== Alliance Reward Hues ==
Alliance-themed items and dyes may use the following hues. Names are working titles and can be updated later.

{| class="wikitable"
! Alliance !! Hue ID !! Working Name
|-
| Brit-Trin Alliance || 2100 || [[Sand and Stone]]
|-
| Yew Rebellion || 2099 || (TBD)
|-
| Minoc Federation || 2098 || (TBD)
|}

''Usage'': These hues may appear on alliance rewards, cosmetics, and seasonal/event items.

== Weekly Voting ==
Each week, every citizen may cast a ballot with four choices. One vote per player for the week. Votes open after the weekly reset and are tallied at the next reset. A quick-vote option can repeat your prior week's selections (except contest choice).

''Ballot items''
# Tax Rate
# Economic Policy
# [[Weekly Contests]] (one of three options presented)
# Governor Approval (Yes or No)

=== Tax Rate ===
Taxes apply when purchasing from an NPC vendor. You pay the tax for the Township where the purchase occurs; that gold is deposited into that Alliance's Gold Coffer.

* Low: 5%
* Medium: 15%
* High: 25%

=== Economic Policy ===
The policy sets the Priority Buff for the week. The Priority Buff receives a larger share of gold and grows faster than the other two buffs.

* Crafter's Policy -> Priority Buff: Crafting Zone Skill Gain
* Hunter's Policy -> Priority Buff: Weekly Dungeon Buff
* Merchant Policy -> Priority Buff: Merchant Stock Bonus

----

== Alliance Weekly Buff System ==
The strength of weekly buffs for all alliance members is based on gold in the Alliance Gold Coffers at weekly reset.

{| class="wikitable"
! Buff !! Base !! Max !! Notes
|-
| [[Crafting Zone]] Skill Gain || 1% || 5% || Affects crafting skills in crafting zones of each Township in the Alliance.
|-
| Merchant Stock Bonus || 5% || 25% || Increases NPC vendor stock in each Township of the Alliance.
|-
| Weekly Dungeon Buff || 5% || 25% || Applies to all three assigned weekly dungeons for the Alliance.
|}

''Gold Coffer rules''
* Overflow limit (subject to change): 200,000 gold.
* Priority Buff is determined by the Economic Policy.
* Priority Buff grows approximately 2x faster than the other two buffs.
* When coffers reach 100,000 gold (50% of limit), the Priority Buff is at max; further gold increases the other two buffs.
* All three buffs reach maximum at 200,000 gold.

Key takeaways:
* Priority Buff can max at 100k gold.
* 100k to 200k improves the two non-priority buffs.
* Above 200k is overflow (handling to be announced).
* Policy can be changed weekly.

----

== Weekly Dungeon Selection System ==
Each week, three special dungeons are assigned to every Alliance: one for Gold Drop Increase, one for Rare Loot Drop Increase, and one for XP Increase.

; Available dungeons
Despise, Destard, Wrong, Covetous, Hythloth, Shame, Ice, Deceit, Wilderness, Ocean, Graveyard.

''Assignment rules''
* No Cross-Alliance Duplicates: a specific dungeon appears for only one Alliance that week.
* No Intra-Alliance Duplicates: each Alliance receives three different dungeons.
* Per-Buff Rotation: a dungeon will not receive the same buff type two weeks in a row for the same Alliance, but it may appear with a different buff type.

''Buff application''
The percentage from your Alliance's Weekly Dungeon Buff applies equally to all three assigned dungeons that week (Gold, Rare Loot, XP).

----

== Alliance Governor Elections ==
Each Alliance elects a Governor every season (12 weeks).

; Timeline
* Weeks 1–8: Nomination period
* Weeks 9–12: Voting period
* Week 12: Results announced; new Governor takes office

; Candidate requirements (subject to change)
* Minimum Alliance Level:
** Season 1: Level 2
** Season 2: Level 5
** Season 3+: Level 10
* Only one character per Discord account may be nominated at a time.
* No more than two consecutive terms; must wait one full season before running again.
* Candidates removed for cause are banned for two full seasons.
* Inactive candidates (3+ weeks no activity) are removed.
* Nominations close after Week 8.

; Voting
* All citizens of the Alliance may vote during Weeks 9–12.
* One vote per player; votes may be changed any time before the season reset.
* The candidate with the most votes wins.
* Tie-breakers: player candidates are favored over NPC candidates; among tied players, the oldest character (by creation date) wins.

; Governor powers
* Democratic Mode: Governor casts one vote; majority rules.
* Executive Authority: Governor may override all citizen votes and set weekly policies; a log notice is sent to citizens.
* Participation rewards (subject to change): 1,000 Alliance Credits and 2,000 XP for voting.

=== Emergency Elections ===
Triggered automatically after either:
* Two consecutive weeks below 20% approval, or
* Governor inactivity for 3+ weeks.

Notes:
* Emergency elections do not occur during Weeks 9–12 (regular election period). If conditions occur then, the emergency election is postponed.
* Only the top three candidates from the prior regular election are eligible; remaining slots are filled with NPC candidates to make three total.
* Voting lasts one week. Tie-breakers above apply.
* Winner immediately replaces the current Governor. Removed Governors are banned for two seasons.

=== NPC Governors ===
If fewer than five players nominate, NPCs fill the ballot so each election has five candidates.
* NPCs generally follow citizen votes but may exercise executive authority when beneficial to the Alliance. A notification is sent when they override.
* NPCs are subject to the same term limits, approval rules, and emergency removal.
* If two or more players run, NPCs may be excluded from the ballot. Players win tie-breakers.

----

== Township Logs ==
Your Township Profile logs the following events:
* Credits gained
* Credits spent
* XP gained
* Level ups

== Township and Alliance XP Table ==
The following XP values are based on exponential growth with a base of approximately 1.6 from level 3 onward. Last updated: 2025-10-26.

= PU Plant System =

The PU Plant System is a comprehensive gardening framework where players grow decorative plants in craftable planters. The system features daily quality checks, growth stages, plant health mechanics, status effects, upgrades, and material-based bonuses.

== Overview ==
Players craft planters from wood or metal, plant seeds with varying difficulty levels, maintain water and dirt resources, perform daily quality checks using a Planter Tester tool, and harvest mature plants for decorative items with rarity tiers (Common, Uncommon, Rare, Legendary).

----

== Getting Started ==

=== Required Items ===
; [[Planter]]
* Craftable via Carpentry (wood) or Blacksmithing (metal)
* Available in multiple materials (Iron, Wood, Colored Ingots/Logs)
* Higher-tier materials provide increased durability
* Must be locked down in a player house to function

; [[Planter Tester]]
* Craftable tool used for daily quality checks
* Made from various metal types (Iron through Zentonium)
* Better materials grant quality bonus to test results
* Has limited charges based on material and quality

; [[Seeds]]
* Current seed types: Small Flowers, Large Flowers
* Growth Difficulty: VeryEasy, Easy, Moderate, Hard, VeryHard
* Harder difficulties require more skill and resources but yield better rewards
* Seeds can be found anywhere normal loot is found, with chance to be in the regional hue if the region has one.
* Seeds can also be rewarded from the [[Alchemist’s Crucible (Alchemy)]] Foundation with chance to be in Foundation Hue.
* Hued seeds grow Hued Plants

; [[Dirt Pile]]
* Mined from farm terrain tiles using a pickaxe or shovel
* Required to fill planters (max varies by planter size)
* Consumed daily during growth

; [[Water]]
* Collected via water containers (Water Bucket and Water Barrels)
* Fill containers by double-clicking near water tiles
* Required to keep planters hydrated (max varies by planter size)
* Consumed daily during growth

----

== Planter Types ==
[[File:PlantGrowSystem.png|500px]]
=== Wooden Planters ===
Wooden planters excel at disease and fungal resistance with balanced growth rates.

{| class="wikitable"
! Planter !! Max Dur !! Capacity !! Disease !! Pest !! Fungal !! Rarity !! Growth !! Upgrades
|-
| Small Wooden || 100 || 100/100 || 10% || 5% || 12% || +5% || +5% || 1
|-
| Medium Wooden || 150 || 200/200 || 15% || 10% || 18% || +10% || +10% || 2
|-
| Large Wooden || 300 || 500/500 || 35% || 30% || 37% || +15% || +25% || 4
|}

=== Metal Planters ===
Metal planters prioritize pest resistance and durability with strong growth bonuses.

{| class="wikitable"
! Planter !! Max Dur !! Capacity !! Disease !! Pest !! Fungal !! Rarity !! Growth !! Upgrades
|-
| Small Metal || 150 || 100/100 || 8% || 10% || 4% || +4% || +4% || 1
|-
| Medium Metal || 250 || 300/300 || 23% || 25% || 19% || +8% || +14% || 2
|-
| Large Metal || 350 || 500/500 || 38% || 40% || 34% || +12% || +24% || 4
|}

''Note'': Capacity shows Water/Dirt maximum. All planters have 1 upgrade slot (base).

=== Material Durability Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Durability Bonus
|-
| Regular Wood/Iron || +5
|-
| Dullwood/Dull Copper || +25
|-
| Umbrawood/Umbra Iron || +50
|-
| Copperwood/Copper || +75
|-
| Bronzewood/Bronze || +100
|-
| Goldenwood/Gold || +125
|-

|-
| Durawood/Duranium || +175
|-
| Verawood/Veranium || +200
|-
| Zentowood/Zentonium || +225
|}

----

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Collect Dirt [[File:Dirtpile.png || 30px]]
#* Collected with a shovel or pickaxe from farm fields
#*[[File:Dirtharvest.JPG || 150px]]
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
#* [[File:AddDirt.JPG||150px]]
# Collect Water
#* Collected with a Water Barrel or Water Bucket [[File:WaterContainers.JPG || 60px]] (Crafted by [[Carpentry]])
#* Collected from lakes, rivers, ocean
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
#* [[File:AddWater.JPG||150px]]
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester [[File:PlanterTester.JPG || 30px]] to preform a daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer [[File:PlantFerterlizer.JPG || 30px]] and Nutrified Water [[File:NutrifiedWater.JPG || 30px]] to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on [[TasteID]] skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher [[TasteID]] skill grants better quality results. [[TasteID]] to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on Very Hard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]].

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 1
|-
| Easy || 1
|-
| Moderate || 2
|-
| Hard || 2

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
[[File:SmallFlowerSeed.png|300px]] 
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
[[File:LargeFlowerSeed.png|300px]] 
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

== Tips & Strategies ==

; Maximize Quality
* Use high-tier Planter Tester tools (Zentonium Exceptional = +23%)
* Train [[TasteID]] to 120.0 for maximum skill bonus
* Perform quality checks daily
* Use Water Purification Filter and Soil Nutrient Booster upgrades

; Maintain Plant Health
* Keep water and dirt levels above minimum requirements at all times

= PU Plant System =

The PU Plant System is a comprehensive gardening framework where players grow decorative plants in craftable planters. The system features daily quality checks, growth stages, plant health mechanics, status effects, upgrades, and material-based bonuses.

== Overview ==
Players craft planters from wood or metal, plant seeds with varying difficulty levels, maintain water and dirt resources, perform daily quality checks using a Planter Tester tool, and harvest mature plants for decorative items with rarity tiers (Common, Uncommon, Rare, Legendary).

----

== Getting Started ==

=== Required Items ===
; [[Planter]]
* Craftable via Carpentry (wood) or Blacksmithing (metal)
* Available in multiple materials (Iron, Wood, Colored Ingots/Logs)
* Higher-tier materials provide increased durability
* Must be locked down in a player house to function

; [[Planter Tester]]
* Craftable tool used for daily quality checks
* Made from various metal types (Iron through Zentonium)
* Better materials grant quality bonus to test results
* Has limited charges based on material and quality

; [[Seeds]]
* Current seed types: Small Flowers, Large Flowers
* Growth Difficulty: VeryEasy, Easy, Moderate, Hard, VeryHard
* Harder difficulties require more skill and resources but yield better rewards
* Seeds can be found anywhere normal loot is found, with chance to be in the regional hue if the region has one.
* Seeds can also be rewarded from the [[Alchemist’s Crucible (Alchemy)]] Foundation with chance to be in Foundation Hue.
* Hued seeds grow Hued Plants

; [[Dirt Pile]]
* Mined from farm terrain tiles using a pickaxe or shovel
* Required to fill planters (max varies by planter size)
* Consumed daily during growth

; [[Water]]
* Collected via water containers (Water Bucket and Water Barrels)

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Collect Dirt [[File:Dirtpile.png || 30px]]
#* Collected with a shovel or pickaxe from farm fields
#*[[File:Dirtharvest.JPG || 150px]]
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
#* [[File:AddDirt.JPG||150px]]
# Collect Water
#* Collected with a Water Barrel or Water Bucket [[File:WaterContainers.JPG || 60px]] (Crafted by [[Carpentry]])
#* Collected from lakes, rivers, ocean
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
#* [[File:AddWater.JPG||150px]]
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester [[File:PlanterTester.JPG || 30px]] to preform a daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer [[File:PlantFerterlizer.JPG || 30px]] and Nutrified Water [[File:NutrifiedWater.JPG || 30px]] to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on [[TasteID]] skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher [[TasteID]] skill grants better quality results. [[TasteID]] to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on Very Hard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]].

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day

|}

''Note'': Upgrades consume one charge per daily reset. Small planters have 1 upgrade slot.

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Collect Dirt [[File:Dirtpile.png || 30px]]
#* Collected with a shovel or pickaxe from farm fields
#*[[File:Dirtharvest.JPG || 150px]]
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
#* [[File:AddDirt.JPG||150px]]
# Collect Water
#* Collected with a Water Barrel or Water Bucket [[File:WaterContainers.JPG || 60px]] (Crafted by [[Carpentry]])
#* Collected from lakes, rivers, ocean
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
#* [[File:AddWater.JPG||150px]]
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester [[File:PlanterTester.JPG || 30px]] to preform a daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer [[File:PlantFerterlizer.JPG || 30px]] and Nutrified Water [[File:NutrifiedWater.JPG || 30px]] to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on [[TasteID]] skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher [[TasteID]] skill grants better quality results. [[TasteID]] to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on Very Hard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]].

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 1
|-
| Easy || 1
|-
| Moderate || 2
|-
| Hard || 2
|-
| VeryHard || 3
|}

|}

''Note'': Upgrades consume one charge per daily reset. Small planters have 1 upgrade slot.

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
[[File:SmallFlowerSeed.png|300px]] 
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Collect Dirt [[File:Dirtpile.png || 30px]]
#* Collected with a shovel or pickaxe from farm fields
#*[[File:Dirtharvest.JPG || 150px]]
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
#* [[File:AddDirt.JPG||150px]]
# Collect Water
#* Collected with a Water Barrel or Water Bucket [[File:WaterContainers.JPG || 60px]] (Crafted by [[Carpentry]])
#* Collected from lakes, rivers, ocean
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
#* [[File:AddWater.JPG||150px]]
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester [[File:PlanterTester.JPG || 30px]] to preform a daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer [[File:PlantFerterlizer.JPG || 30px]] and Nutrified Water [[File:NutrifiedWater.JPG || 30px]] to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on [[TasteID]] skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher [[TasteID]] skill grants better quality results. [[TasteID]] to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on Very Hard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]].

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day

''Note'': Upgrades consume one charge per daily reset. Small planters have 1 upgrade slot.

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

== Tips & Strategies ==

; Maximize Quality
* Use high-tier Planter Tester tools (Zentonium Exceptional = +23%)

= PU Plant System =

The PU Plant System is a comprehensive gardening framework where players grow decorative plants in craftable planters. The system features daily quality checks, growth stages, plant health mechanics, status effects, upgrades, and material-based bonuses.

== Overview ==
Players craft planters from wood or metal, plant seeds with varying difficulty levels, maintain water and dirt resources, perform daily quality checks using a Planter Tester tool, and harvest mature plants for decorative items with rarity tiers (Common, Uncommon, Rare, Legendary).

----

== Getting Started ==

=== Required Items ===
; [[Planter]]
* Craftable via Carpentry (wood) or Blacksmithing (metal)
* Available in multiple materials (Iron, Wood, Colored Ingots/Logs)
* Higher-tier materials provide increased durability
* Must be locked down in a player house to function

; [[Planter Tester]]
* Craftable tool used for daily quality checks
* Made from various metal types (Iron through Zentonium)
* Better materials grant quality bonus to test results
* Has limited charges based on material and quality

; [[Seeds]]
* Current seed types: Small Flowers, Large Flowers
* Growth Difficulty: VeryEasy, Easy, Moderate, Hard, VeryHard
* Harder difficulties require more skill and resources but yield better rewards

; [[Dirt Pile]]
* Mined from farm terrain tiles using a pickaxe or shovel
* Required to fill planters (max varies by planter size)
* Consumed daily during growth

; [[Water]]
* Collected via water containers (Water Bucket and Water Barrels)
* Fill containers by double-clicking near water tiles
* Required to keep planters hydrated (max varies by planter size)
* Consumed daily during growth

----

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on [[TasteID]] skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher [[TasteID]] skill grants better quality results. [[TasteID]] to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on Very Hard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]].

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 1
|-
| Easy || 1
|-
| Moderate || 2

''Note'': Upgrades consume one charge per daily reset. Small planters have 1 upgrade slot.

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

== Tips & Strategies ==

; Maximize Quality
* Use high-tier Planter Tester tools (Zentonium Exceptional = +23%)

----

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester to rain your daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer and Nutrified Water to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on [[TasteID]] skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher [[TasteID]] skill grants better quality results. [[TasteID]] to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on Very Hard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]].

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%

| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

|}

''Note'': Upgrades consume one charge per daily reset. Small planters have 1 upgrade slot.

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

== Tips & Strategies ==

; Maximize Quality
* Use high-tier Planter Tester tools (Zentonium Exceptional = +23%)
* Train [[TasteID]] to 120.0 for maximum skill bonus
* Perform quality checks daily
* Use Water Purification Filter and Soil Nutrient Booster upgrades

; Maintain Plant Health
* Keep water and dirt levels above minimum requirements at all times
* Maintain quality above 30% to avoid severe penalties
* Monitor for negative status effects
* Use high-quality planters (Large Wooden = 35/30/37% resistances)

; Growth Optimization
* High water and dirt quality = up to +10% growth speed
* Healthy plants (Excellent/Good) grow 10-25% faster
* Use Growth Accelerator upgrade (+10%) for maximum speed
* Never let resources drop to zero (50% growth penalty!)

; Harvest Planning
* Legendary plants require high rarity bonuses (45%+)
* Maintain Excellent plant health at harvest (+15% rarity)
* Use Gold Clover Replica upgrade (+20%) for best results
* Four-Leaf Clovers status effect adds +20% rarity chance

; Resource Management
* Fill planters completely before planting

= PU Plant System =

The PU Plant System is a comprehensive gardening framework where players grow decorative plants in craftable planters. The system features daily quality checks, growth stages, plant health mechanics, status effects, upgrades, and material-based bonuses.

== Overview ==
Players craft planters from wood or metal, plant seeds with varying difficulty levels, maintain water and dirt resources, perform daily quality checks using a Planter Tester tool, and harvest mature plants for decorative items with rarity tiers (Common, Uncommon, Rare, Legendary).

----

== Getting Started ==

=== Required Items ===
; [[Planter]]
* Craftable via Carpentry (wood) or Blacksmithing (metal)
* Available in multiple materials (Iron, Wood, Colored Ingots/Logs)
* Higher-tier materials provide increased durability
* Must be locked down in a player house to function

; [[Planter Tester]]
* Craftable tool used for daily quality checks
* Made from various metal types (Iron through Zentonium)
* Better materials grant quality bonus to test results
* Has limited charges based on material and quality

; [[Seeds]]
* Current seed types: Small Flowers, Large Flowers

* Fill containers by double-clicking near water tiles
* Required to keep planters hydrated (max varies by planter size)
* Consumed daily during growth

----

== Planter Types ==

=== Wooden Planters ===
Wooden planters excel at disease and fungal resistance with balanced growth rates.

{| class="wikitable"
! Planter !! Max Dur !! Capacity !! Disease !! Pest !! Fungal !! Rarity !! Growth !! Upgrades
|-
| Small Wooden || 100 || 100/100 || 10% || 5% || 12% || +5% || +5% || 1
|-
| Medium Wooden || 150 || 200/200 || 15% || 10% || 18% || +10% || +10% || 2

|}

----

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester to rain your daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer and Nutrified Water to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on [[TasteID]] skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher [[TasteID]] skill grants better quality results. [[TasteID]] to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on Very Hard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]].

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

| Four-Leaf Clovers || 3% || 2-4 days || +20% Rarity, -10% Dirt Quality Loss, -10% Water Quality Loss
|}

''Note'': High water and dirt quality reduce negative effect chances by up to 30%. Positive effects are increased by quality.
''Resistance'': All Resistance reduces chance by 75% of resistance value. Example: 20% Pest Resistance = 15% reduction in chance.

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

== Tips & Strategies ==

; Maximize Quality

= PU Plant System =

The PU Plant System is a comprehensive gardening framework where players grow decorative plants in craftable planters. The system features daily quality checks, growth stages, plant health mechanics, status effects, upgrades, and material-based bonuses.

== Overview ==
Players craft planters from wood or metal, plant seeds with varying difficulty levels, maintain water and dirt resources, perform daily quality checks using a Planter Tester tool, and harvest mature plants for decorative items with rarity tiers (Common, Uncommon, Rare, Legendary).

----

== Getting Started ==

=== Required Items ===
; [[Planter]]
* Craftable via Carpentry (wood) or Blacksmithing (metal)
* Available in multiple materials (Iron, Wood, Colored Ingots/Logs)
* Higher-tier materials provide increased durability
* Must be locked down in a player house to function

; [[Planter Tester]]
* Craftable tool used for daily quality checks
* Made from various metal types (Iron through Zentonium)
* Better materials grant quality bonus to test results
* Has limited charges based on material and quality

; [[Seeds]]
* Current seed types: Small Flowers, Large Flowers
* Growth Difficulty: VeryEasy, Easy, Moderate, Hard, VeryHard
* Harder difficulties require more skill and resources but yield better rewards

; [[Dirt Pile]]
* Mined from farm terrain tiles using a pickaxe or shovel
* Required to fill planters (max varies by planter size)
* Consumed daily during growth

; [[Water]]
* Collected via water containers (Water Bucket and Water Barrels)
* Fill containers by double-clicking near water tiles
* Required to keep planters hydrated (max varies by planter size)
* Consumed daily during growth

----

== Planter Types ==

=== Wooden Planters ===
Wooden planters excel at disease and fungal resistance with balanced growth rates.

{| class="wikitable"
! Planter !! Max Dur !! Capacity !! Disease !! Pest !! Fungal !! Rarity !! Growth !! Upgrades
|-
| Small Wooden || 100 || 100/100 || 10% || 5% || 12% || +5% || +5% || 1
|-
| Medium Wooden || 150 || 200/200 || 15% || 10% || 18% || +10% || +10% || 2
|-
| Large Wooden || 300 || 500/500 || 35% || 30% || 37% || +15% || +25% || 4
|}

=== Metal Planters ===
Metal planters prioritize pest resistance and durability with strong growth bonuses.

{| class="wikitable"
! Planter !! Max Dur !! Capacity !! Disease !! Pest !! Fungal !! Rarity !! Growth !! Upgrades
|-
| Small Metal || 150 || 100/100 || 8% || 10% || 4% || +4% || +4% || 1

|}

----

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester to rain your daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer and Nutrified Water to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on Taste Identification skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher Item Identification skill grants better quality results. [[TasteID]] to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on Very Hard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]].

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 1
|-
| Easy || 1
|-
| Moderate || 2
|-
| Hard || 2
|-
| VeryHard || 3

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

= PU Plant System =

The PU Plant System is a comprehensive gardening framework where players grow decorative plants in craftable planters. The system features daily quality checks, growth stages, plant health mechanics, status effects, upgrades, and material-based bonuses.

== Overview ==
Players craft planters from wood or metal, plant seeds with varying difficulty levels, maintain water and dirt resources, perform daily quality checks using a Planter Tester tool, and harvest mature plants for decorative items with rarity tiers (Common, Uncommon, Rare, Legendary).

----

== Getting Started ==

=== Required Items ===
; [[Planter]]
* Craftable via Carpentry (wood) or Blacksmithing (metal)
* Available in multiple materials (Iron, Wood, Colored Ingots/Logs)
* Higher-tier materials provide increased durability
* Must be locked down in a player house to function

; [[Planter Tester]]
* Craftable tool used for daily quality checks
* Made from various metal types (Iron through Zentonium)
* Better materials grant quality bonus to test results
* Has limited charges based on material and quality

; [[Seeds]]
* Current seed types: Small Flowers, Large Flowers
* Growth Difficulty: VeryEasy, Easy, Moderate, Hard, VeryHard
* Harder difficulties require more skill and resources but yield better rewards

; [[Dirt Pile]]
* Mined from farm terrain tiles using a pickaxe or shovel
* Required to fill planters (max varies by planter size)
* Consumed daily during growth

; [[Water]]
* Collected via water containers (Water Bucket and Water Barrels)
* Fill containers by double-clicking near water tiles
* Required to keep planters hydrated (max varies by planter size)
* Consumed daily during growth

----

== Planter Types ==

----

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester to rain your daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer and Nutrified Water to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on Taste Identification skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher Item Identification skill grants better quality results. Train to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on VeryHard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]].

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day

|}

''Note'': Upgrades consume one charge per daily reset. Small planters have 1 upgrade slot.

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

== Tips & Strategies ==

; Maximize Quality
* Use high-tier Planter Tester tools (Zentonium Exceptional = +23%)

# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on Item Identification skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher Item Identification skill grants better quality results. Train to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on VeryHard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]].

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 1
|-
| Easy || 1
|-
| Moderate || 2
|-
| Hard || 2
|-
| VeryHard || 3
|}

=== Negative Effects - Pests ===

|}

''Note'': Upgrades consume one charge per daily reset. Small planters have 1 upgrade slot.

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

----

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester to rain your daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer and Nutrified Water to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on Item Identification skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher Item Identification skill grants better quality results. Train to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on VeryHard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]].

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"

|}

''Note'': Upgrades consume one charge per daily reset. Small planters have 1 upgrade slot.

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

== Tips & Strategies ==

; Maximize Quality
* Use high-tier Planter Tester tools (Zentonium Exceptional = +23%)
* Train Item Identification to 120.0 for maximum skill bonus
* Perform quality checks daily immediately after reset
* Use Water Purification Filter and Soil Nutrient Booster upgrades

; Maintain Plant Health
* Keep water and dirt levels above minimum requirements at all times
* Maintain quality above 30% to avoid severe penalties
* Monitor for negative status effects
* Use high-quality planters (Large Wooden = 35/30/37% resistances)

; Growth Optimization
* High water and dirt quality = up to +10% growth speed
* Healthy plants (Excellent/Good) grow 10-25% faster
* Use Growth Accelerator upgrade (+10%) for maximum speed
* Never let resources drop to zero (50% growth penalty!)

; Harvest Planning
* Legendary plants require high rarity bonuses (45%+)
* Maintain Excellent plant health at harvest (+15% rarity)
* Use Gold Clover Replica upgrade (+20%) for best results
* Four-Leaf Clovers status effect adds +20% rarity chance

; Resource Management
* Fill planters completely before planting
* Check resource levels daily

----

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester to rain your daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer and Nutrified Water to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on Item Identification skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher Item Identification skill grants better quality results. Train to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on VeryHard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]].

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* These items are very powerful - typically only 2-3 uses needed to reach daily maximum
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

== Tips & Strategies ==

; Maximize Quality
* Use high-tier Planter Tester tools (Zentonium Exceptional = +23%)
* Train Item Identification to 120.0 for maximum skill bonus
* Perform quality checks daily immediately after reset
* Use Water Purification Filter and Soil Nutrient Booster upgrades

; Maintain Plant Health
* Keep water and dirt levels above minimum requirements at all times
* Maintain quality above 30% to avoid severe penalties
* Monitor for negative status effects
* Use high-quality planters (Large Wooden = 35/30/37% resistances)

; Growth Optimization
* High water and dirt quality = up to +10% growth speed
* Healthy plants (Excellent/Good) grow 10-25% faster
* Use Growth Accelerator upgrade (+10%) for maximum speed
* Never let resources drop to zero (50% growth penalty!)

; Harvest Planning
* Legendary plants require high rarity bonuses (45%+)
* Maintain Excellent plant health at harvest (+15% rarity)
* Use Gold Clover Replica upgrade (+20%) for best results
* Four-Leaf Clovers status effect adds +20% rarity chance

; Resource Management
* Fill planters completely before planting
* Check resource levels daily
* VeryHard seeds consume 70-80% quality per day - requires daily checks
* Use Dirt/Water Retainer upgrades to reduce quality loss

----

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester to rain your daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer and Nutrified Water to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on Item Identification skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher Item Identification skill grants better quality results. Train to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on VeryHard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check. Both are crafted with [[Alchemy]]

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* These items are very powerful - typically only 2-3 uses needed to reach daily maximum
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 1
|-
| Easy || 1
|-
| Moderate || 2

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

|}

----

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester to rain your daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer and Nutrified Water to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on Item Identification skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher Item Identification skill grants better quality results. Train to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on VeryHard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check.

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Dirt Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* These items are very powerful - typically only 2-3 uses needed to reach daily maximum
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 1
|-
| Easy || 1
|-
| Moderate || 2
|-
| Hard || 2
|-
| VeryHard || 3

|}

''Note'': Upgrades consume one charge per daily reset. Small planters have 1 upgrade slot.

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester to rain your daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer and Nutrified Water to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on Item Identification skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher Item Identification skill grants better quality results. Train to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on VeryHard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check.

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to MaxDailyDirtQuality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to Max Water Quality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water are crafted with [[Alchemy]]
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* These items are very powerful - typically only 2-3 uses needed to reach daily maximum
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day

''Note'': Upgrades consume one charge per daily reset. Small planters have 1 upgrade slot.

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

== Tips & Strategies ==

; Maximize Quality
* Use high-tier Planter Tester tools (Zentonium Exceptional = +23%)
* Train Item Identification to 120.0 for maximum skill bonus

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on Item Identification skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%

| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher Item Identification skill grants better quality results. Train to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on VeryHard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check.

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to MaxDailyDirtQuality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to MaxDailyWaterQuality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* These items are very powerful - typically only 2-3 uses needed to reach daily maximum
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 1
|-
| Easy || 1
|-
| Moderate || 2

! Effect !! Base Chance !! Duration !! Effects
|-
| Four-Leaf Clovers || 3% || 2-4 days || +20% Rarity, -10% Dirt Quality Loss, -10% Water Quality Loss
|}

''Note'': High water and dirt quality reduce negative effect chances by up to 30%. Positive effects are increased by quality.
''Resistance'': All Resistance reduces chance by 75% of resistance value. Example: 20% Pest Resistance = 15% reduction in chance.

----

== Planter Upgrades ==

Planters can be upgraded with consumable items that provide permanent bonuses until the upgrade expires (charge-based).

Upgrades will be craftable with [[Tinkering]] and [[Alchemy]].

|}

''Note'': Upgrades consume one charge per daily reset. Small planters have 1 upgrade slot.

----

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

== Tips & Strategies ==

; Maximize Quality
* Use high-tier Planter Tester tools (Zentonium Exceptional = +23%)
* Train Item Identification to 120.0 for maximum skill bonus
* Perform quality checks daily immediately after reset
* Use Water Purification Filter and Soil Nutrient Booster upgrades

; Maintain Plant Health
* Keep water and dirt levels above minimum requirements at all times
* Maintain quality above 30% to avoid severe penalties
* Monitor for negative status effects
* Use high-quality planters (Large Wooden = 35/30/37% resistances)

; Growth Optimization
* High water and dirt quality = up to +10% growth speed
* Healthy plants (Excellent/Good) grow 10-25% faster
* Use Growth Accelerator upgrade (+10%) for maximum speed
* Never let resources drop to zero (50% growth penalty!)

; Harvest Planning
* Legendary plants require high rarity bonuses (45%+)
* Maintain Excellent plant health at harvest (+15% rarity)
* Use Gold Clover Replica upgrade (+20%) for best results
* Four-Leaf Clovers status effect adds +20% rarity chance

; Resource Management
* Fill planters completely before planting

; [[Water]]
* Collected via water containers (Water Bucket and Water Barrels)
* Fill containers by double-clicking near water tiles
* Required to keep planters hydrated (max varies by planter size)
* Consumed daily during growth

----

== Planter Types ==

=== Wooden Planters ===
Wooden planters excel at disease and fungal resistance with balanced growth rates.

{| class="wikitable"
! Planter !! Max Dur !! Capacity !! Disease !! Pest !! Fungal !! Rarity !! Growth !! Upgrades
|-
| Small Wooden || 100 || 100/100 || 10% || 5% || 12% || +5% || +5% || 1
|-
| Medium Wooden || 150 || 200/200 || 15% || 10% || 18% || +10% || +10% || 2
|-
| Large Wooden || 300 || 500/500 || 35% || 30% || 37% || +15% || +25% || 4
|}

=== Metal Planters ===
Metal planters prioritize pest resistance and durability with strong growth bonuses.

{| class="wikitable"
! Planter !! Max Dur !! Capacity !! Disease !! Pest !! Fungal !! Rarity !! Growth !! Upgrades
|-
| Small Metal || 150 || 100/100 || 8% || 10% || 4% || +4% || +4% || 1
|-
| Medium Metal || 250 || 300/300 || 23% || 25% || 19% || +8% || +14% || 1
|-
| Large Metal || 350 || 500/500 || 38% || 40% || 34% || +12% || +24% || 1
|}

''Note'': Capacity shows Water/Dirt maximum. All planters have 1 upgrade slot (base).

=== Material Durability Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"

|-
| Regular Wood/Iron || +5
|-
| Dullwood/Dull Copper || +25
|-
| Umbrawood/Umbra Iron || +50
|-
| Copperwood/Copper || +75
|-
| Bronzewood/Bronze || +100
|-
| Goldenwood/Gold || +125
|-
| Lunawood/Lunanite || +150
|-
| Durawood/Duranium || +175
|-
| Verawood/Veranium || +200
|-

|}

----

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester to rain your daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer and Nutrified Water to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on Item Identification skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher Item Identification skill grants better quality results. Train to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on VeryHard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check.

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to MaxDailyDirtQuality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to MaxDailyWaterQuality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* These items are very powerful - typically only 2-3 uses needed to reach daily maximum
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

== Harvesting ==

When a plant reaches 100% growth (Complete stage), it can be harvested for a decorative plant item.

=== Harvest Requirements ===
* Plant must be at Complete stage (100% Growth Score)
* Plant that are dead produce nothing at harvest.
* Player must be owner/co-owner of house where planter is locked down

=== Rarity System ===
Harvested plants have four rarity tiers:

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Base Chance !! Color
|-
| Common || 50% || White
|-
| Uncommon || 30% || Green
|-
| Rare || 15% || Blue
|-
| Legendary || 5% || Gold
|}

; Rarity Modifiers
* Total Rarity Bonus = Planter Base Bonus + Upgrade Bonuses + Status Effect Bonuses + Plant Health Bonus
* Plant Health Bonuses:
** Excellent: +15%
** Good: +8%
** Fair: 0%
** Poor: -5%
** Withered: -15%
** Dead: -25%

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

== Tips & Strategies ==

; Maximize Quality
* Use high-tier Planter Tester tools (Zentonium Exceptional = +23%)
* Train Item Identification to 120.0 for maximum skill bonus
* Perform quality checks daily immediately after reset
* Use Water Purification Filter and Soil Nutrient Booster upgrades

; Maintain Plant Health
* Keep water and dirt levels above minimum requirements at all times
* Maintain quality above 30% to avoid severe penalties
* Monitor for negative status effects
* Use high-quality planters (Large Wooden = 35/30/37% resistances)

; Growth Optimization
* High water and dirt quality = up to +10% growth speed
* Healthy plants (Excellent/Good) grow 10-25% faster
* Use Growth Accelerator upgrade (+10%) for maximum speed
* Never let resources drop to zero (50% growth penalty!)

; Harvest Planning
* Legendary plants require high rarity bonuses (45%+)
* Maintain Excellent plant health at harvest (+15% rarity)
* Use Gold Clover Replica upgrade (+20%) for best results
* Four-Leaf Clovers status effect adds +20% rarity chance

; Resource Management
* Fill planters completely before planting
* Check resource levels daily
* VeryHard seeds consume 70-80% quality per day - requires daily checks
* Use Dirt/Water Retainer upgrades to reduce quality loss

* Consumed daily during growth

----

== Planter Types ==

=== Wooden Planters ===
Wooden planters excel at disease and fungal resistance with balanced growth rates.

{| class="wikitable"
! Planter !! Max Dur !! Capacity !! Disease !! Pest !! Fungal !! Rarity !! Growth !! Upgrades
|-
| Small Wooden || 100 || 100/100 || 10% || 5% || 12% || +5% || +5% || 1
|-
| Medium Wooden || 150 || 200/200 || 15% || 10% || 18% || +10% || +10% || 1
|-
| Large Wooden || 300 || 500/500 || 35% || 30% || 37% || +15% || +25% || 1
|}

=== Metal Planters ===
Metal planters prioritize pest resistance and durability with strong growth bonuses.

{| class="wikitable"
! Planter !! Max Dur !! Capacity !! Disease !! Pest !! Fungal !! Rarity !! Growth !! Upgrades
|-
| Small Metal || 150 || 100/100 || 8% || 10% || 4% || +4% || +4% || 1

| Goldenwood/Gold || +125
|-
| Lunawood/Lunanite || +150
|-
| Durawood/Duranium || +175
|-
| Verawood/Veranium || +200
|-
| Zentowood/Zentonium || +225
|}

----

== Planting Process ==

# Craft a Planter
#* Wood planters: higher disease/fungal resistance
#* Metal planters: higher durability and pest resistance
# Place in House
#* Place planter in your house
# Lock Down
#* Lock down the planter (must be owner or co-owner)
# Add Dirt
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Add Water
#* Add from Planter Gump (up to max capacity)
# Plant Seed
#* Use a seed on the planter
#* Requires minimum dirt and water (varies by seed)
#* Seed is consumed on successful planting
#* Plant status changes to "Seeded"
# Use a Planter Tester to rain your daily quality check
#* Use Fertilizer and Nutrified Water to raise Dirt and Water Qualities
#** Both Fertilizer and Nutrified Water can be crafted with [[Alchemy]].
# First Growth Check
#* Occurs 24 hours after planting
# Daily Maintenance
#* Perform quality checks, add resources, monitor plant health

''Important'': Planters not locked down that are seeded do not grow. The reset each day on growth check, repeating the same day. Effectively pausing the planter.

----

== Daily Quality Checks ==

Each day, players perform **one quality check** per planter using a Planter Tester tool. This determines the maximum quality ceiling for water and dirt that day.

=== Quality Check Formula ===
Final Quality = Base Quality + Skill Bonus + Success Bonus + Tool Bonus

; Components
* '''Base Quality''': 30-75% (varies by seed difficulty)
** VeryEasy: 50-75%
** Easy: 45-70%
** Moderate: 40-65%
** Hard: 35-60%
** VeryHard: 30-55%
* '''Skill Bonus''': 0-35% (based on Item Identification skill)
** Scales from minimum to maximum skill requirement
** Full bonus at maximum skill for that difficulty
* '''Success Bonus''': 5-10% (granted on successful skill check)
** Awarded when the skill check succeeds
** Adds variability to quality results
* '''Tool Bonus''': 0-23% (based on Planter Tester material and quality)

=== Planter Tester Tool Bonuses ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Material !! Regular Bonus !! Exceptional Bonus
|-
| Iron || 0% || +5%
|-
| Dull Copper || +2% || +7%
|-
| Umbra Iron || +4% || +9%
|-
| Copper || +6% || +11%
|-
| Bronze || +8% || +13%
|-
| Gold || +10% || +15%
|-
| Lunanite || +12% || +17%
|-
| Duranium || +14% || +19%
|-
| Veranium || +16% || +21%
|-
| Zentonium || +18% || +23%
|}

''Example'': A Zentonium Exceptional Planter Tester grants +23% to quality checks.

=== TasteID Skill Requirements by Difficulty ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Min Skill !! Max Skill
|-
| VeryEasy || 50.0 || 80.0
|-
| Easy || 60.0 || 90.0
|-
| Moderate || 70.0 || 100.0
|-
| Hard || 90.0 || 110.0
|-
| VeryHard || 100.0 || 120.0
|}

''Note'': Higher Item Identification skill grants better quality results. Train to 120.0 for maximum effectiveness on VeryHard seeds.

== Quality Enhancement Items ==

Special items can be used to increase the current water or dirt quality **after** performing a daily quality check. These items can only raise quality up to the maximum set by that day's quality check.

=== Plant Fertilizer ===
Increases **current dirt quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to MaxDailyDirtQuality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires dirt to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test dirt quality and get 65% max for the day. Current quality is 20%. Use Plant Fertilizer to raise it from 20% → 50% → 65% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

=== Nutrified Plant Water ===
Increases **current water quality** by a random amount per use (varies by planter size).

; Usage
* Must perform daily quality check first
* Can only raise quality up to MaxDailyWaterQuality (the ceiling set by today's test)
* Requires water to be present in planter
* Has 5 charges
* Cannot stack

; Scaling by Planter Size
* Small planters (100 capacity): 20-40% increase per charge
* Medium planters (300 capacity): 15-30% increase per charge
* Large planters (500 capacity): 10-20% increase per charge

''Example'': You test water quality and get 70% max for the day. Current quality is 30%. Use Nutrified Plant Water to raise it from 30% → 60% → 70% (capped), reaching maximum in just 2 uses.

''Important Notes'':
* These items raise **current quality**, not **maximum quality**
* They can only be used after performing the daily quality check
* Quality cannot exceed the daily maximum set by your quality check
* These items are very powerful - typically only 2-3 uses needed to reach daily maximum
* Larger planters require more uses to achieve the same percentage increase

----

== Daily Quality Degradation ==

Each day at the daily reset (24 hours after planting), water and dirt quality decrease based on seed difficulty and active status effects.

=== Base Quality Reduction ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Quality Loss per Day
|-
| VeryEasy || 30-40%
|-
| Easy || 40-50%
|-
| Moderate || 50-60%
|-
| Hard || 60-70%
|-
| VeryHard || 70-80%
|}

''Strategy'': Higher difficulty seeds require more frequent quality checks and better tools to maintain high quality levels.

----

== Growth System ==

=== Growth Stages ===
Plants progress through five stages based on accumulated Growth Score:

{| class="wikitable"
! Stage !! Progress !! Visual !! Notes
|-
| Seeded || 0-25% || No visual spawn || Initial planting
|-
| Seedling || 25-50% || No visual spawn || Early growth
|-
| Sprout || 50-75% || Small sprout appears || First visible stage
|-
| Growing || 75-100% || Medium plant || Almost mature
|-
| Complete || 100% || Full plant || Ready to harvest
|}

=== Daily Growth Calculation ===
Each day at reset, the planter calculates growth increase:

Growth = Base Growth × Resource Penalty × Quality Bonus × Health Multiplier

; Factors
* '''Base Growth''': Random value between MinimumDailyGrowthScore and MaximumDailyGrowthScore (seed-dependent)
* '''Resource Penalty''': 50% penalty if water OR dirt falls below minimum needed
* '''Quality Bonus''': Up to +50% from combined water and dirt quality
** Water Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Dirt Quality contributes 5% of its value
** Example: 100% water + 100% dirt = +10% growth bonus
* '''Growth Rate Bonuses''': From planter base stats, upgrades, and status effects
* '''Health Multiplier''': Based on current plant health

=== Resource Consumption ===
Each day, the plant consumes:
* Water: Random amount between MinimumWaterNeeded and MaximumWaterNeeded (seed-dependent)
* Dirt: Random amount between MinimumDirtNeeded and MaximumDirtNeeded (seed-dependent)

''Warning'': If resources drop to zero, growth is severely penalized!

----

== Plant Health System ==

Plant health is calculated daily and affects growth speed and rarity chance at harvest.

=== Health Levels ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health !! Growth Multiplier !! Rarity Bonus
|-
| Excellent || +25% || +15%
|-
| Good || +10% || +8%
|-
| Fair || Normal || 0%
|-
| Poor || -15% || -5%
|-
| Withered || -40% || -15%
|-
| Dead || 0% (no growth) || -25%
|}

=== Health Calculation Formula ===
Health is recalculated daily based on four factors:

Health Score = (Resource × 0.4) + (Quality × 0.8) + (Status × 0.4) − (Growth Penalty × 0.1)

; Components
* '''Resource Score''' (0-100):
** Both resources present = 100 points
** Partial resources = 50 points
** Empty resources = 0 points
* '''Quality Score''' (0-100):
** Average of water and dirt quality
** Below 30% quality applies 50% penalty
* '''Status Score''' (0-100):
** Baseline: 50
** Negative effects: -20 per effect
** Positive effects: +10 per effect
* '''Growth Penalty''' (0-40):
** Seeded: 0
** Seedling: 10
** Sprout: 20
** Growing: 30
** Complete: 40

=== Health Changes ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Health Score !! Result
|-
| 85+ || Health improves by 1 level
|-
| 70-84 || Minor improvement (Poor → Fair only)
|-
| 50-69 || Health stable
|-
| 35-49 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| 20-34 || Health decreases by 1 level
|-
| <20 || Health decreases by 2 levels (rapid decline!)
|}

''Key Point'': Mature plants (Growing/Complete stages) are MORE demanding and require better care to maintain health.

----

== Status Effects (Random Events) ==

Status effects are random events that apply each day based on seed difficulty, resistance stats, and quality levels.

=== Event Roll Frequency ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Event Rolls per Day

''Example'': A Large Metal Planter (+12% base) with Excellent health (+15%) and Gold Clover Replica (+20%) has +47% total rarity bonus, significantly increasing chances for Rare and Legendary plants.

=== Durability Loss ===
* Each harvest reduces planter durability by 10 (base, varies by seed)
* When durability reaches 0, the planter breaks and is deleted
* Higher-tier materials grant more total harvests

''Calculation'': Zentonium Large Metal Planter = 350 base + 225 material bonus = 575 durability = ~57 harvests

----

== Seed Types and Plants ==

=== Small Flowers ===
Fast-growing decorative flowers. Over 35 different varieties across all rarity tiers.

; Examples
* Common: Orfluer flowers, Campion flowers, Snowdrops, Poppies
* Uncommon: Foxglove flowers, White flowers, Red poppies
* Rare: Orange rosa, Pink periwinkle, Purple daisy, Yellow muriel
* Legendary: Blue zinnia, Frost daisy, Desert daisy, Morning flowers

=== Large Flowers ===
Larger decorative bushes and flowering plants. Over 20 different varieties.

; Examples
* Common: Silvershade bloom, Desert thicket, Wispwillow, Duskpetal
* Uncommon: Rosethorn veil, Azalea bush, Rose thicket
* Rare: Mud willow, Morning lilac, Echo fern
* Legendary: Whisper thorn, Rose bush, Dusk willow

''Note'': Additional seed types (Bushes, Trees, Herbs, Exotic Plants, Fungi, Cacti, Vines, Aquatic Plants, Carnivorous Plants, Magical Plants, Giant Plants, Regional Plants) are planned for future releases.

----

== Tips & Strategies ==

; Maximize Quality
* Use high-tier Planter Tester tools (Zentonium Exceptional = +23%)
* Train Item Identification to 120.0 for maximum skill bonus
* Perform quality checks daily immediately after reset
* Use Water Purification Filter and Soil Nutrient Booster upgrades

; Maintain Plant Health
* Keep water and dirt levels above minimum requirements at all times
* Maintain quality above 30% to avoid severe penalties
* Monitor for negative status effects
* Use high-quality planters (Large Wooden = 35/30/37% resistances)

; Growth Optimization
* High water and dirt quality = up to +10% growth speed
* Healthy plants (Excellent/Good) grow 10-25% faster
* Use Growth Accelerator upgrade (+10%) for maximum speed
* Never let resources drop to zero (50% growth penalty!)

; Harvest Planning
* Legendary plants require high rarity bonuses (45%+)
* Maintain Excellent plant health at harvest (+15% rarity)
* Use Gold Clover Replica upgrade (+20%) for best results
* Four-Leaf Clovers status effect adds +20% rarity chance

; Resource Management
* Fill planters completely before planting
* Check resource levels daily
* VeryHard seeds consume 70-80% quality per day - requires daily checks
* Use Dirt/Water Retainer upgrades to reduce quality loss

; Planter Selection
* Wooden planters: Best for disease/fungal-prone seeds
* Metal planters: Best for pest-prone seeds and maximum durability
* Large planters: Highest bonuses and capacity for serious gardeners
* Small planters: Good for beginners and testing seeds

<center>The '''Slayer Gem System''' allows players to add slayer properties to weapons through a socketing mechanic. Unlike traditional slayer weapons, this system uses gems, and specialized tools to create temporary slayer weapons with limited charges.</center>

== Overview ==
* Slayer Gems socket into player-crafted weapons using socketing tools
* Each weapon can hold one slayer gem at a time
* Gems have limited charges that deplete on successful slayer hits
* When charges reach zero, the gem breaks and converts to Slayer Dust
* Slayer Dust can be reforged into new gems using Reforging Tools
* Super Slayer Gems (Legendary) Required a Greater Reforging Tool

== Gem Rarities and Charges ==

Slayer Gems come in three rarity tiers, each with different charge ranges and slayer types:

{| class="wikitable"
! Picture !! Rarity !! Charge Range !! Slayer Types !! Notes
|-
| [[File:UncomonSlayerGem.png|30px]] || Uncommon || 25-50 || Lesser Slayers Only || Standard gem
|-
| [[File:Rare_gem.png|30px]] || Rare || 50-150 || Lesser Slayers Only || Increased charges
|-
| [[File:legendaryslayergem.png|30px]] || Legendary || 100-200 || Super Slayers Only || Super Slayers, Increased charges
|}

=== Slayer Types ===

; Lesser Slayers (Uncommon/Rare Gems)
* All standard slayer types except super slayers
* Examples: Dragon Slaying, Orc Slaying, Spider's Death, Daemon Dismissal, etc.

; Super Slayers (Legendary Gems Only)
* '''Arachnid Doom''' – All spiders and Terathans
* '''Silver''' – All undead
* '''Elemental Bane''' – All elementals
* '''Exorcism''' – Demons and gargoyles
* '''Reptilian Death''' – Dragons, drakes, lizardfolk, snakes, serpents, ophidians
* '''Repond''' – All humanoid NPCs

== Socketing Tools ==

Socketing tools drill a socket into player-crafted weapons, sacrificing 20% of the weapon's maximum durability. Weapons must match the tool's resource type.

=== Metal Socketing Tools ===
[[File:Metal_Socketing_Tool.png|50px]] 
Used for metal weapons (swords, axes, maces, etc.). Resource type determines tool quality.

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Resources !! Charges !!Notes
|-
| Uncommon || Iron || 2-4 || Basic metal tool
|-
| Rare || Dull Copper, Umbra Iron, Copper, Bronze, Gold || 4-6 || Mid-tier metals
|-
| Legendary || Lunanite, Duranium, Veranium, Zentonium || 5-8 || High-tier metals
|}

=== Wood Socketing Tools ===
[[File:Wood_Socketing_Tool.png|50px]] 
Used for wooden weapons (bows, staves, etc.). Resource type determines tool quality.

{| class="wikitable"
! Rarity !! Resources !! Charges !! Notes
|-
| Uncommon || Regular Wood || 2-4 || Basic wood tool
|-
| Rare || Dullwood, Umbrawood, Copperwood, Bronzewood, Goldenwood || 4-6 || Mid-tier woods
|-
| Legendary || Lunawood, Durawood, Verawood, Zentowood || 5-8 || High-tier woods
|}

== Slayer Dust ==

When a slayer gem's charges are fully depleted, it automatically converts to '''Slayer Dust'''. 
Lesser Slayer Dust--[[File:Lesser_Slayer_Dust.png|50px]] 
Greater Slayer Dust-[[File:Legendary_Slayer_Dust.png|50px]] 
; Slayer Dust Properties
* Retains the slayer type of the original gem
* Stackable (stacks only with same slayer type)
* Item ID: 0x0F8F
* Hue: 2736 for super slayers, 2499 for lesser slayers
* Used to reforge new gems via Reforging Tools
* Can also drop as loot from monsters

; Obtaining Slayer Dust
* Automatic conversion when gem charges reach zero
* Monster loot drops
* Trading with other players

== Slayer Dust Reforging Tools ==

Reforging tools convert Slayer Dust back into functional Slayer Gems. There are two tool types with different success rates and capabilities.

{| class="wikitable"
! Picture !! Tool Type !! Rarity !! Charges !! Dust Required !! Success Rate !! Can Reforge Legendary (Super Slayer)?
|-
| [[File:Lesser_Reforging_Tool.png|30px]] || Lesser Reforging Tool || Rare || 3-5 || 4 || 15% for Rare, 85% for Uncommon || No
|-
| [[File:Greater_Reforging_Tool.png|30px]] || Greater Reforging Tool || Legendary || 6-9 || 4 || 45% for Rare, 55% for Uncommon || Yes
|}

; Reforging Process
# Double-click the Reforging Tool
# Target Slayer Dust in your backpack
# Must have at least 4 dust of the same slayer type
# Tool consumes 4 dust and 1 charge per attempt
# Success creates a Reforged Gem with charges based on rarity:
#* Reforged Uncommon: 25-50 charges
#* Reforged Rare: 50-150 charges
#* Reforged Legendary: 100-200 charges (Greater Tool only)

; Important Notes
* Only '''Greater Reforging Tools''' can create Legendary (super slayer) gems
* Lesser tools cannot reforge super slayer dust into gems
* Tool is destroyed when charges reach zero

== Socketing Process ==

=== Installing a Socket ===
# Double-click a Socketing Tool
# Target a player-crafted weapon in your backpack
# Requirements:
#* Weapon must be player-crafted
#* Weapon must match tool's resource type (metal/wood)
#* Weapon cannot already have a slayer property
#* Weapon cannot already be socketed
# Weapon's MaxHitPoints reduced by 20%
# Tool loses 1 charge
# Weapon displays "[Open Slayer Socket]"

=== Installing a Gem ===
# Double-click a Slayer Gem
# Target a socketed weapon
# Requirements:
#* Weapon must be in backpack
#* Weapon must be player-crafted
#* Weapon cannot have existing slayer
#* Weapon must be socketed
# Weapon Profile created with gem's charges
# Weapon gains gem's slayer property
# Gem is consumed

== Combat Mechanics ==

; Charge Consumption
* Charges only deplete on successful slayer hits
* Each qualifying hit consumes 1 charge
* Misses do not consume charges
* Non-qualifying targets do not consume charges

; Slayer Damage Bonus
* +100% damage vs. qualifying creatures (same as traditional slayers)
* Stacks with other damage bonuses

; Gem Breaking
* When charges reach 0, gem automatically breaks
* Slayer property removed from weapon
* Slayer Dust (matching slayer type) added to owner's backpack
* Message: "Your slayer gem shatters into dust!"
* Weapon retains socket (can install new gem)

== Obtaining Slayer Gems ==

; Loot Drops
* Found on mid to high-tier monsters
* Rarity determined by monster difficulty
* Super slayer gems (Legendary) are extremely rare

; Reforging
* Created from Slayer Dust using Reforging Tools
* Allows recycling broken gems
* Success rate varies by tool type

== Notes ==
* Socketing is permanent (socket remains even after gem breaks)
* Only ONE gem can be installed at a time
* Weapon must be player-crafted to be socketed
* Pre-existing slayer weapons cannot be socketed
* Gems cannot be removed, they must be used until they break
* Adding a socket reduces its max durability by 20%.

We've overhauled the Runic Crafting system! Here's what you need to know.

* In Beta 1, it was updated so that Crafted Weapons receive magic properties like Vanq and Supremely Accurate.
** The weapons do not show these when they show their name unless they are crafted with a Runic tool.
** If you see the properties like Vanq and Supremely Accurate when you single click on the weapon, then those properties are active in PvP.
** All Further Buffs like PvM Damage Bonuses from Runic Crafting do not apply to PvP.
*** This is to keep PvP era accurate.
