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.


 * Trees grow on grass as long as there is enough room on either side of them. They also need natural light.
 * Mushrooms also grow on grass. They require natural light and are randomly grown on grass.
 * Glowing Mushrooms grow on mud from glowing mushroom grass. They must be planted below sea level.
 * Vile Mushrooms grow on corrupted grass, not ebonstone. Enemies will spawn in the planted corruption, but you will be able to control the area they grow in. They probably need to be an an area big enough to dim the sunlight.
