Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get seeds in Arknights Endfield?

To get seeds in Endfield:

  1. Step 1: Harvest plants from the world (Buckflower, Citrome, etc.)
  2. Step 2: Build a Seed-Picking Unit in your base
  3. Step 3: Place harvested plants into the unit
  4. Step 4: Wait 30 seconds for extraction
  5. Step 5: Collect the seeds for planting
What's the difference between base plants and seeds?

Base Plants are the harvested crops you gather from the world. These are used directly in crafting (powders, solutions) or can be processed into seeds.

Seeds are extracted from base plants using the Seed-Picking Unit. Seeds are planted in the Planting Unit to grow more plants, creating a sustainable farming loop.

Key difference: You cannot plant base plants directly - you must extract seeds first!

Which seeds should I prioritize?

Priority depends on your crafting needs:

  • Buckflower & Citrome Seeds: For medicine crafting (Buck Capsules)
  • Jincao & Yazhen Seeds: For solutions and advanced medicines
  • Sandleaf Seeds: Critical for ground powders (used in [A] tier medicines)
  • Special Seeds: Redjade Ginseng and Amber Rice for cooking and buffs

We recommend setting up automated farming for your most-used plants.
