Guide:Gardening

There are several plants and fungi that can successfully be farmed in Terraria, though there are a few things to keep in mind.

To farm you'll first need to collect seeds.

You'll then need to prepare the appropriate environment.


 * Grass must be naturally lit. Trees grow on grass as long as there is enough room on either side of them. Mushrooms will sprout up randomly on grass.
 * Mud needs to be belows sea level (or 0 in-game feet). Glowing Mushrooms grow on glowing blue grass, and jungle grass will sprout Jungle Roses
 * Vile Mushrooms grow on corrupted grass, not ebonstone. Enemies will spawn in planted corruption also, but you can control the area using corrupt seeds. They probably need to be an an area big enough to dim the sunlight.
