How to Set Up a Farm with the Watering Can
Crafting and using the Watering Can
The Watering Can is a shaped crafting recipe. Once crafted, fill it with water and use it on farmland to keep crops hydrated. It is the tool to reach for when you want to tend a garden bed without laying down a full irrigation channel. Carry it with you while you walk your rows and top up any farmland that has dried out.
Pairing it with Crates and crops
Build your farm around the crops that Adorn stores in Crates: wheat, carrots, potatoes, beetroots, melon slices, sweet berries, lil taters, and sugar cane. Keep the matching Crates — Crate of Wheat, Crate of Carrots, Crate of Potatoes, Crate of Beetroots, Crate of Melon Slices, Crate of Sweet Berries, Crate of Lil Taters, and Crate of Sugar Cane — at the edge of the field so harvested produce goes straight into storage. Store seeds in Crate of Wheat Seeds, Crate of Beetroot Seeds, Crate of Melon Seeds, and Crate of Pumpkin Seeds. Use Picket Fence to border the plots and Chain Link Fence for any industrial-scale section. Place Stone Torch around the field so you can keep working after dark. If you also keep bees, place Caution: Bees near the hives and store honeycomb in a Crate of Honeycombs. The Watering Can, the themed Crates, and the fences together turn a plain field into a working farm.
