How to Get Wheat in Heartopia

Unlike some basic ingredients you can buy from vendors, Wheat must be grown through Gardening. It isn’t available at the start of the game; you’ll first need to upgrade your Gardening Hobby to Level 2.

Once you reach that level, Wheat Seeds become available for purchase from Blanc, the Gardening Mentor NPC. Most of the time, you’ll find him at the Garden Shop on Garden Street during the day.

Each Wheat Seed costs 95 Gold and requires Gardening Level 2. Once planted, Wheat takes 4 hours to fully grow. Since it has a long growth time, it’s highly recommended to use fertilizers, like the Growth Booster.

The Growth Booster can also be purchased from Blanc. When used, it instantly reduces crop growth time by 15 minutes. The best part is that it can be applied multiple times to the same crop. Using the Growth Booster makes Wheat farming far more efficient, especially if you plan to cook frequently or sell dishes for profit.
