Campground patch strategy

The Hermit humbly requests that this page be rewritten or expanded. Details for Tall Grass and Your Mushroom Garden

Your campground may contain A Pumpkin Patch, A Peppermint Patch, A Bone Garden, A Beer Garden, A Winter Garden, A Thanksgarden, Tall Grass, or Your Mushroom Garden. Only Tall Grass and Your Mushroom Garden are available under Standard restrictions.

Thanksgarden

The rate of cornucopia growth in A Thanksgarden increases with more days between harvesting:

Day	1	2	3	4	5	6	7+
Cornucopia harvested	1	3	5	8	11	15	1 megacopia

Each cornucopia drops 7 items. Of these, 2 to 5 will be cashews and the remainder will be raw foods. Cashews can be used to access a store where they are traded for useful items. Raw foods are 1 fullness for 2 adventures and have a chance to give the effect The Good Salmonella, which gives +20% to all attributes per point of your current fullness.

1	glass casserole dish (Shirt)	+3 PvP fight(s) per day when equipped. +30 Sleaze Damage Damage Reduction: 10	raw green beans	green bean casserole

3	gravy boat (Hat)	Half damage from Undead During the Undefile the Cyrpt Quest, decreases evil in the current zone by 1% after every combat win.	raw gravy	warm gravy

Each cashew-derived item can be cooked with a raw food to produce a 2 fullness, awesome quality food. These foods give 20 turns of Thanksgetting. With one Thanksgiving food eaten, this effect gives:

• +80% Meat from Monsters
• +40% Item Drops from Monsters
• +2 to Familiar Weight
• Slight Resistance (+1) to all elements

For each different Thanksgiving food eaten on the same day, Thanksgetting increases in power by the following amount:

• +40% Meat from Monsters
• +20% Item Drops from Monsters
• +1 to Familiar Weight
• Slight Resistance (+1) to all elements

At rollover, Thanksgetting is replaced with Thanksgot, which is equivalent to Thanksgetting with one food eaten.

Tall Grass

Source of Pokéfams during a Pocket Familiars challenge path run. Each patch of grass produces one Pokéfam hatchling.

Pokéfams
1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10	11	12	13	14	15	16	17
18	19	20	21	22	23	24	25	26	27	28	29	30	31	32	33	34
35	36	37	38	39	40	41	42	43	44	45	46	47	48	49	50	51

Outside a challenge path run, each patch of grass produces either familiar equipment or a Pokéberry; very rarely, a Mu hatchling may appear instead.

Pokéberries

Berry Experiential (granted by every berry) Berry Effect Egnaro berry Restores 50% of max MP Glum berry Cures negative status effects Jamocha berry Berry Thorny, weapon damage and stinging damage Keese berry Berry Defensive, +100 DA and +10 DR Nadsat berry Berry Critical, +30% chance of critical hit Sitrep berry Restores 75% of max HP Snarf berry Berry Statistical, +100% to mainstat and +66% to offstats Tapioc berry Berry Elemental, +1 resist to all elements

Leaving the grass alone for 8 days produces Very Tall Grass, which spawns one of the handful of Pokéfam hatchlings available even outside the challenge path (46-50).

Mushrooms

Visiting Your Mushroom Garden initiates a (free) combat encounter with a piranha plant, which drops pollen and sometimes a familiar hatchling. After defeating it, you can pick the mushroom or use the plant's remains to fertilize it, making it grow larger on subsequent days.

Days Fertilized	Gives	When Used
1	free-range mushroom	3 mushroom filet
2	plump free-range mushroom	3 mushroom filet + 1 free-range mushroom
3	bulky free-range mushroom	3 mushroom filet + 1 plump free-range mushroom

Mushroom filets may be eaten raw, cooked into mushroom tea, or cocktailcrafted into mushroom whiskey.
