Starting your journey requires focusing on Farming XP and unlocking the Garden. Your immediate goal is to reach Garden Level 4 to unlock the Crops menu and access chips.
Choose the Rabbit Pet (Epic or Legendary) to boost your Farming Wisdom. This accelerates your leveling speed significantly in the early stages.
| Level | Unlock | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Garden 3 | Advanced Gardening Hoe | ★★★☆☆ |
| Garden 4 | Crops Menu (Chips) | ★★★★★ |
| Farming 3 | Farm Suit Armor | ★★☆☆☆ |
| Farming 10 | Farm Armor | ★★☆☆☆ |
Focus on planting crops that offer consistent XP. Once you hit Farming 15, craft the Rabbit Armor from the Rabbit Collection. This set provides a significant stats boost over the starter gear.
Mid Game: Pest Farming Strategy
Pest farming is the most efficient way to make money in the mid-game. This strategy involves switching between two gear sets: one to spawn pests and one to kill them.
Spawning Gear
- Biohazard Set: High Bonus Pest Chance.
- Manted Reforge: Further increases spawn rates.
- Slug/Mosquito Pet: Boosts pest spawn frequency.
Killing Gear
- Melon Armor: Provides Farming Fortune.
- Mossy Reforge: Maximizes crop drops.
- Pest Hunter Equipment: Boosts drops from pests.
Do not use Pest Repellent Max if you are pest farming. You need pests to spawn to generate profit.
The Swap Method:
- Wear your Bonus Pest Chance set (Biohazard + Manted).
- Farm crops until the "Cooldown Ready" indicator appears in your menu.
- Quickly swap to your Farming Fortune set (Mossy/Melon).
- Kill the pests for maximum drops.
| Pest Type | Best Pet | Special Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Moth | Slug | +100 Farming Fortune with spray |
| Mosquito | Mosquito | +92 Base Pest Chance |
| Cricket | Elephant | Better for Jacob's Contest |
| Beetle | Rose Dragon | Best overall (Expensive) |
Armor & Equipment Progression
Your armor choice defines your farming efficiency. As you progress, you will transition from basic sets to armor that provides specific bonuses like Farming Fortune and Pest Chance.
Farm Suit (Farming 3)
The starter set. It is cheap but offers low stats. Only use this until you unlock Rabbit Armor.
Rabbit Armor (Farming 15)
A solid mid-tier set. Combine with Rancher's Boots (Farming 18) for speed if you lack a Sundial.
Melon Armor (Farming 25)
The first major set for profit. It allows you to drop Croppies. Upgrade this set using the dropped Croppies.
Squash Armor (Farming 35)
Upgraded from Melon Armor using Squash drops. Increases your chances for rare drops.
Fermento Armor (Farming 40)
Upgraded from Squash using Fermenttos. Provides superior stats and Pest Chance over Biohazard.
Your final goal is the Helanthis Set. This is the best-in-slot armor for farming, offering the highest Fortune and drop rates.
| Armor Set | Farming Level Req | Main Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Farm Suit | 3 | Basic starter stats |
| Rabbit Armor | 15 | Good all-round stats |
| Melon Armor | 25 | Drops Croppies |
| Squash Armor | 35 | Drops Fermenttos |
| Fermento Armor | 40 | High Fortune & Pest Chance |
| Helanthis Set | 50+ | Best in Slot |

FAQ
Q: What is the difference between Pest Farming and Regular Farming?
Regular farming uses Pest Repellent Max to stop pests from spawning, allowing for a relaxed experience. Pest farming involves actively hunting pests to maximize profit through rare drops like Squash and Fermenttos.
Q: Which pet should I use for making money?
For general money, the **Mushroom Cow** is excellent. For pest hunting specifically, use the **Slug** pet (for consistency and fortune) or the **Mosquito** pet (for maximum spawn rates).
Q: When should I switch from Rancher's Boots to Melon Armor?
You should switch to the full **Melon Armor** set once you obtain a **Sundial**. The Sundial replaces the speed bonus from Rancher's Boots, allowing you to benefit from the Melon set's full set bonus and Croppie drops.
Q: How do I get the Crop Fever enchant?
Crop Fever is an Ultimate enchant. To obtain it, you must have your Moonflower Collection nearly maxed out (Level 7/8). This requires a significant amount of farming XP and Garden progress.
