Gardening

A tomato plant can be harvested multiple times. The plant grows for 4 days, and then can be harvested. After the first harvest, it can be harvested again every two days for three more additional harvests (day 6, 8 and 10 after planting). Each harvest yields 2 tomatoes (3 with harvest boost). Its Water Retain buff will hydrate adjacent crops (as long as itself is hydrated).
