Vegetable Seeds

Vegetable seeds (used, obviously, to grow vegetables) are available to paid accounts at any University of Worship where Agriculture is researched (which is now all of them). Trial accounts can only obtain seeds from other players.

Each different University of Worship will offer 4 vegetable seeds of a random basic variety (Cabbage, Carrots, Garlic, Leeks, or Onions). A player can only obtain this gift once at each University.

Pepper seeds were introduced to Egypt during an event; they are only available from other players.

Reproduction

In general, and unlike flax, growing vegetables will leave you with exactly as many seeds as when you started. Successfully harvesting a vegetable will give you your seed back, and killing a vegetable plant (either through lack of water or overwatering) will leave a seed behind on the ground. You need never worry about running out of vegetable seeds (as long as you don't leave them on the ground and walk away), though of course you can only work as many simultaneous beds as you have seeds.

Reproducing vegetable seeds -- getting more seeds back from a harvest -- is a continuing puzzle. The method is different for each vegetable, and always changes from Tale to Tale. Discussion of vegetable seed reproduction can be found on the Vegetables page.
