Icon Hua 2
Icon Mage Book
If Icon Mush: Kept

Icon Ian's beginning skill, and one that he is usually expected to take. Besides making you the official gardener of the ship, it allows you to read the effects of fruit so you can tell your crew that it's totally safe to eat that weird alien eggplant - especially if you do not have a Icon Chef to do that.

Icon Hua can take this skill to assist with the plant caring and to find more fruits when going on expeditions.

Icon Mage Book candidates include Icon Stephen, who can then combine Cycle 8 gardening with some Cycle 1 cooking, Icon Chao or Icon Derek to give them something to do after the Mush hunt (Chao can combine this with Icon Survivalist) or Icon Paola to have her help out with large late-game gardens once she is done with her Comms work. Icon Eleesha would also be an option, but if she has her Icon Determined skill, that may be better combined with more difficult tasks, like those of a Icon Technician.

  • Try and use your Gardening Point for the more expensive tasks like treating diseases, while getting others to help you with simple watering.
