Apple Tree Seedling

An Apple Tree Seedling becomes an Apple Tree in your orchard. Orchardry (20 green) lets you plant it, and the tree bears 4 to 8 Apples about 25 minutes later, then again every 20 minutes after each picking, for good (see Farming). Picking needs Farming mastery 2.

You can only buy it: Herm has 3 at his third tier, and the town Vegetable Stand 2, 4 and 8 at its three tiers, for 1 silver each.

Notes

  • No mastery, fertilizer or upgrade speeds a tree up. Its pace is fixed.
  • There are no wild apple trees, so a tree of your own is the only free source of apples.
  • Studying one costs 10 Science and gives 10 red and 50 green.
