Whether you are looking for details on all crops, seeds, how long they take to grow, best seasons, and such details in Moonlight Peaks or want to know basics like how to farm and so on, I’ve got you covered with this guide.
How does farming work in Moonlight Peaks?
In Moonlight Peaks, to begin farming, you must first select an area for your garden.
After that, you must clear it, plow, and then plant seeds. Lastly, you must water them and pass the day.
Depending on the crop’s growth period, you can harvest it after the specified number of days.
Clearing the area
To clear the area, you can use the different tools by pressing the ‘E’ key on your keyboard or the respective button on your controller.
Pickaxe
You can use the Pickaxe tool to clear the logs and cut down trees.
Scythe
You can use the Scythe tool to clear the grass.
Plowing the land
To plow land, select the Shovel tool from the Tool Menu and click the locations where you want to plow.
Keep pressing the LMB or the respective button on your controller to plow the blocks.
Planting the seeds
To plant seeds in Moonlight Peaks, press the ‘F’ key on your keyboard or the corresponding button on your controller to open your Inventory.
There you can find Seeds and other items. Select and click on the seed that you want to plant.
You can either use the ‘Plant’ option to plant them or use the ‘Assign’ option to add them to the Tool Menu.
Once done. Select the seed.
Plant them in the plowed land.
Watering the seeds and plants and passing the time
To grow the seed into plants, you must water them and wait for the day.
You can select the Watering Can tool and use LMB to start watering the area.
The water is limited. So once you empty the Watering Can, head to the Sea and fill it up by pressing the LMB.
Sleep and pass the time.
Once you have planted the seed, you must spend the day sleeping in your Coffin inside your house.
