Pollution
An unknown number of factors can cause seeds to fail to grow. The original seed is returned.
Onions appear to pollute/deplete the land in an area about 25 coordinates around them. Cabbage will not grow in this area, but carrots and leeks will; unable to test other vegetable seeds. Flax grows. Growing leeks in the area did not appear to reverse the effect, though I only did a short round of leek growing. -Densor
