Things you won't find in this guide:
- High-resolution images of a plants

You CAN find all this easily when searching plants (CTRL + F) in the "Plant ID Guide" by Scano!

Spoiler warning
I've tried to hide as many puzzle solutions with spoiler-tags but I'm confident that reading this entire page will still ruin your experience if you're trying to experience the game as intended. Instead, use the hint button or you can consider asking your specific question on the forums or Discord[discord.gg].

Explanation of this page:
  • What is Obtain? This section indicates when and how you can obtain any given plant. Please note that based on the choices you make, you'll acquire plants in different ways or on different days.
  • What is "Day 2 card"? It means that you need to solve the green cards that you get during the night between each day. Day 2 card is the card you get on the first night, you can solve this card first thing in the morning of day 2.
    Tip for cards: All these cards reference a location (coordinates) on the exploration map
  • What is mail (L) and (S)? L is large full A4-sized mail, and S is small mail and notes.
  • What is Bryer's Disc? (soonTM)
  • What is invisible ink? (soonTM)
  • What is Sisterhood chest? (soonTM)
