Papyrus grows well in the Nile in Shabbat Ab.
How To Grow Papyrus
- Start at the bridge by the UArt.
- Plant 1 papyrus sheaf every 10 coords running north along the west bank. Do this for 100 coords (10 sheaves).
- Wait 10 minutes.
- Start harvesting at the little sandy peninsula going north.
- Harvest up to the bridge by the UThought just to be sure, then go across the Nile and harvest on the east bank.
This should yield about 80-90 papyrus.
To dry papyrus and get some seeds too, you need to dry it on a drying rack or flax hammock on a high mountain. The higher the better. You know you are high when you start hearing the wind blowing. There is a good spot with some racks on the sandy mountain west of the UArt.

Questions
- How far downstream does papyrus appear from a planting?
- Does the downstream distance vary from region to region?
- How long exactly does it take for the papyrus to appear?
- Is there really a difference in growing papyrus at different times of day?
- How far off the Nile (East and West) does papyrus appear in lakes?
