Mushroom Farming Mechanics
Substrates
Each mushroom grows better in a specific substrate. It grows adequately in one of the low level substrates (Dirt, Bone or Meat), and very well in one of the high level substrates (Organs, Limbs or Exotic).
Some substrates can be produced from any item with a certain keyword:
- Meat Substrate: Category:Items/Meat
- Organ Substrate: Category:Items/BodyOrgan
- Limb Substrate: Category:Items/CorpseLimb
Some higher level mushroom boxes require multiple doses of substrate, instead of just one.
Moon Phases
Mushrooms also grow robustly if harvested during two (specific to the mushroom) out of the eight moon phases, and poorly in two others. Moon phase in game matches real life, based on GMT time zone. The current moon phase can be checked with the Moon Phase Check Lore recipe.
Mushroom Boxes
Mushroom boxes are made with Carpentry and Mushroom Farming recipes. Lucky boxes have a 33% chance for harvesting a second type of mushroom and can last once, 12 hours or 24 hours. Practice boxes have a slower grow time, but yield more XP per mushroom. Fast boxes grow mushrooms 20% faster than normal, but have a -50% XP penalty per mushroom.
Box Duration and Clearing Boxes
Some mushroom boxes have a duration (other boxes typically grow only a single crop). For these boxes, the player will be able to start a new cycle as long as there is any time left on the box. If this new cycle uses up the remaining time on the box, the in-game interface will inform you that this will be the last crop this box will be fit to grow.
At any time, the player may opt to clean out a mushroom box. For a box with duration remaining, a new crop may then be started, requiring a new starter mushroom, and a new dose of substrate (or multiple doses, depending on box type).
Number of Boxes
A number of boxes can be placed simultaneously, depending on Mushroom Farming level:
- Two boxes to start
- Three boxes at Level 41
Locations
- Some locations where mushrooms can be farmed: Crystal Cavern, Myconian Cave, Brain Bug Cave, New Prestonbule Cave, Wolf Cave, Serbule Hills Spider Cave.
- Some locations where mushrooms cannot be farmed: Rahu Sewer, Yeti Cave
