Gardening

Gardening is a part of the crafting system in Aurelia. It consists in growing and tending to different kinds of plants, using Ivy magic, in order to get their fruits which can be later sold, given to Merah in exchange for random drops or given to Janet in exchange for food.

Unlocking the Garden
If you grab the old shovel from your room and attempt to use it in your front yard it will break. Buy a Steel Shovel for 80G from Janet. Click on the Garden outside your house during the afternoon and Ivy will help you prepare it. This will pass time. Every afternoon hereafter, you will be able to grow stuff in your Garden, this will not pass time. We can also buy Risvell's Guide to Gardening from Lily to give to Ivy, though it's unclear what this does. The Garden will be a very important source of ingredients for progressing many different questlines

 * Ten of these can be given to Lily to make Fermented Fertilizer, which causes plants to grow on empty spots automatically every day.
