Herbalism

The Herbalism skill offers extra drops and automatic crop planning, saving time and effort. It also has some interesting sub-skills, such as being able to add moss to cobblestone and stone bricks.

Experience gain

Experience is gained by harvesting crops, flowers, etc.

Super ability

Green Terra

Is activated by right-clicking on anything (except dirt) with a hoe and then harvesting crops with it. It provides triple drops and crops will be automatically replanted at a very high growth level until the ability wears off. Seeds are no longer used for this replanting.

Alternatively, right-clicking on anything except dirt with a hoe and then clicking on stonebrick, dirt, or cobble while having wheat seeds in the inventory will use the seeds to instantly convert the target blocks into mossy stonebrick, grass, or mossy cobble while the ability is active.

Active sub-skills

Green Thumb (Blocks)

Provides the chance to apply moss to dirt, cobblestone or stone bricks by right-clicking on it with wheat seeds, which will be consumed in the process. The chance for a successful convert increases with the player's Herbalism level.

Shroom Thumb

Provides the chance to turn dirt into mycelium by clicking on it with a mushroom. The player must have both red and brown mushrooms in their inventory, which will be consumed in the process. The chance for a successful convert increases with the player's Herbalism level.

Passive sub-skills

Green Thumb (Crops)

Provides a chance to automatically replant crops upon harvesting them. The chance increases with the player's Herbalism level. When using a hoe, this does not use seed crops.

Double Drops

Increases harvesting precision, granting double drops upon harvesting crops. The chance increases with the player's Herbalism level.

Farmer's Diet

Increases the amount of hunger restored by grown food (bread, carrots, potatoes, cookies, melons, mushroom soup and carrots) as the player's Herbalism level increases. The bonus hunger restoration is determined by a rank:

Herbalism Level	Rank	Bonus Hunger Restoration
0–19	0	0
20–39	I	1
40–59	II	2
60-79	III	3
80–99	IV	4
100+	V	5

Hylian Luck

Gives a small chance of finding rare items upon breaking specific materials with a sword. Dead bushes may yield melon seeds, pumpkin seeds and cocoa beans. Flowers may yield carrots, potatoes and apples. Smashing a naturally generated flower pot may yield an emerald, diamond or gold nugget. The chance for a drop increases with the player's Herbalism level.

Trivia

• Green Thumb might be affected by nossr50's plans to rename abilities with the same name, in order to provide a clear distinction between the Green Thumb for blocks and the Green Thumb for crops.
