Berry Garden
The Berry Garden is a place where farmers can grow berries for their Pokémon. It can be accessed from the "Nearby Places" tab on a user's Farm page.
Berry Plots
The garden is comprised of up to 32 "Berry Slots", where a farmer can plant Berries. Each level grants four slots where a berry can be planted. When the Berry Garden is first accessed, only four slots are open, with the rest being blocked. As one gains more Garden EXP, the slots are cleared up.
Growing Berries
When the plant a berry button is selected, a menu opens up. Here, one can select a berry to plant. There are four categories of berries, in increasing order of rarity:
- Common Berries
- Berries
- Rare Berries
- Special Berries
A Berry takes a garden slot when it is planted. The berry will continue to grow as time passes. However, the plant will dry out after a period of time, and it will need to be watered. A plant may be watered by pressing the "Water" button, or "Water All" if the plant is Damp or Dry. If a plant is not watered for too long, the plant will die and disappear from the Garden.
Berries take anywhere from 6 to 90 hours to grow. This number may be increased or reduced with the application of Mulch.
Clicking on a plant's "Harvest Plant" button will harvest the berries from the plant, and add them to the inventory. The plant will disappear, clearing up a garden slot. If a plant is not harvested for a certain amount of time, the plant will die and disappear from the Garden. However, there is a chance that a Berry will fall off and a new plant will grow in its place. This chance may be increased with Mulch.
There is a small chance of finding a Gracidea while harvesting berries.
Garden EXP
As berries are picked, Garden EXP is obtained. The amount of EXP gained is displayed in a bar under the garden. If the bar is filled, the garden levels up. Every time the garden levels up, a new plot is cleared with 4 slots to plant berries.
