Produced By

The steps for reproducing an onion seed have not been confirmed at this time. In an effort to expedite the discovery of onion seed reproduction, please edit this section with any information if you are able to do so.

Important things to note: Type of land you were on or near, coordinates, time of day, other factors (near certain types of trees, etc.).

Confirmed seed reproduction:

  • Onion and Garlic seeds have both been reproduced when planted near a Carrion Eater spawn at 2-4pm game time at different locations on different days. The actual cause of duplication is still in question but points toward ground pollution and other factors.
 (tried to reproduce Onion and Garlic Seeds near Carrion at different locations and times, no success. Perhaps every Character hat a specific Mushroom to produce seeds. I continue trying planting near different mushrooms. Thutamun)

Got Onion-Seeds around Suez Tribut Post and north and south of the tribut post, only a few plant each spot, you need to move around, from 2:00 PM - 5:30 PM but time start and ends diffrent too but in this window Qwu


Myths busted:

  • "A 'wave' runs through Egypt from "X to Y" at a certain time of day" - Malard disproved (citation needed)

Pollution

An unknown number of factors can cause seeds to fail to grow. The original seed is returned.

  • Tested the area for Heavy Metal using Ecology 1 and 2,000 tadpole returned no results
