Dates are a tasty fruit produced by Date Palm trees.


Source

Before a Date Palm will produce dates, the tree must first be fertilized by applying 1 saltpeter. After a while, a number of dates will ripen, which can be harvested by anyone carrying saltpeter.

The menu shown on the Palm Tree is:

  • Gather Dates and Fertilize with Saltpeter

Upon harvesting the dates, the saltpeter is automatically applied to the tree.

Notes

I've got date yields as high as 17 from one tree at a time. However, yields of one or two are more common. If there is a pattern, I have been unable to determine it. JulianJaynes 14:32, 19 April 2009 (EST)

I can't confirm this 100%, but I believe it takes 2 hours for the first date to appear after fertilizing it. If you check, after the initial 2 hours, there will only be one date. But the longer (after the 2 hours), the more dates appear. In other words, the longer they remain unharvested, the more dates that keep adding to the tree's inventory. I checked at 1 hour and 1.5 hours, no dates. But there was 1 date after 2 hours... ~Cegaiel

I was making a circuit of the same 6 date trees about every hour and a half (real time) and some trees would have immature dates and some would have dates ready for picking. Yield was anywhere between 1 and 20, even with minimal time between fertilizing and harvesting. -Detour, Sept 2010

I have had harvests as high as 22 dates on one tree. On the neighboring tree, there was only one date. Both trees were harvested at the same time. -Peacefulness, Tale 7, Nov 2015
