Description

A delicate tree sprout with a few tender leaves.

A tree or a bush sprout used for some tools or for planting.

Method

• To pick a sprout: Activate a sickle, right click > Nature on tree or bush and select Pick sprout.

Only trees aged mature to very old will produce a sprout, if a tree of this age does not hold a sprout then it's possible another player has already picked it.

• To plant a sprout: Activate the sprout, right click > Nature and select 'Plant naturally' or 'Plant in center' on a dirt or grass tile.

The quality and damage of a sprout, and gardening skill, affects the chance of successfully planting it.

Other Uses

• Making a fruit press.
• Making a cheese drill.
• Planting hedges.

Notes

• Sprout quality does not determine tree quality nor does it have any affect in growth rate.
• If a sprout is not picked, the tree will attempt to seed itself to a random nearby tile when it advances to the next stage of growth. If the tile is not "available" (grass or flower tile) then the sprout is wasted.
• Not to be confused with a seedling.
