Main / Skills / Forestry / Sprout

Description

A delicate tree sprout with a few tender leaves.

A tree or a bush sprout, picked from one.

Method

• To pick a sprout: Activate a sickle, right-click a tree or bush and select 'Pick sprout'.

Only mature to very old trees form sprouts. Note that not all trees have sprouts even then (e.g. if somebody has already picked it), so you might need to check several to have the option. The option to pick a sprout refreshes periodically, every couple of weeks, or sometimes at server restarts.

• To plant a sprout: Activate the sprout and select 'Plant' on a dirt tile or 'Nature'->'Plant' on a grass tile.

TheQuality and damage of a sprout and gardening skill affects the chance of successfully planting it.

Uses

1. Planting new trees.
2. Making a fruit press.
3. Making a cheese drill.
4. Planting hedges.

Notes

• Sprout quality does not determine tree quality.
• If a sprout is not picked, it will attempt to plant itself to a random nearby tile when it advances to the next stage of growth. If the tile is not "available" (Dirt, Grass, flower...) then the sprout is wasted.
