Flax

Flax is a crop grown from Flax Seeds, which Herm sells from his second tier. Planting needs Farming mastery 5. In the full game it is spun into Flax Thread for fabric, fishing rods and bows, but the Spinning Wheel cannot be built in the demo, so there flax is only an alchemy ingredient.

As an ingredient it has one red and one green rune. On its own it makes a Damage Potion; with Flour or an Onion it makes the Rich growth elixir.

Notes

  • Flax Seeds press into Seed oil at the Millstone, like the other crop seeds.
  • Studying it costs 2 Science and 2 Faith and gives 10 red and 20 green.
