Grapes are a type of Crop which can be grown in Atomicrops.
Obtaining[ | ]
Grapes are grown from the third level of Desert Seeds.
The player starts the game with their Desert Seeds growing into Prickly Pears, but once enough Desert Seeds have been sown and harvested, the player's Desert seeds will evolve into Black Eyed Beans and then Grapes. Once a certain number of Grapes are grown and harvested (approximately 6 fully fertilized Megacrops), all Desert Seeds will instead grow into Aloe, and Grapes will be unavailable for the remainder of the player's run. This includes Grapes yet to be harvested when the seeds are upgraded, as they will automatically change into Aloe.
Finding Desert Seeds[ | ]
Desert Seeds can be found in the first Desert area, most commonly from clearing Squirrel and Bulb Camps. They are also sometimes dropped by defeated Enemies. This chance is increased if the player has the Flying Squirrels weapon or Squirrel Pocket upgrade.
When killed, Beeson drop seeds from a random Biome, regardless of location. Cutting Weeds on the farm may also drop random seeds, which are commonly Desert Seeds.
See the Related Items section of this page for other sources.
Alternatively, Desert Seeds can be purchased at the Garden Shop in Spring and Fall. These cost 30 in Spring and 70 in Fall, and give the player 4-10 Desert Seeds immediately on purchase.
If the player has the Oven Terrarium then Desert Seeds will be unavailable, and these sources will instead drop random seeds from another Biome.
If the player is playing as Oregacrow, then Desert Seeds and Grapes are unavailable.
Growing Grapes[ | ]
Fertilization and Megacrop Variant[ | ]
Grapes require 4 Fertilizer to be fully fertilized. Creating a Megacrop (from 4 Grape plants planted in a 2x2 formation) therefore requires 16.
A mega Grape plant requires a further 8 to become fully fertilized itself.
Watering[ | ]
To fully grow, small Grapes need 1 unit of water, and freshly merged Mega Grapes need 2 units of water.
Propagators and Garden Beds[ | ]
Leveling up crops or rescuing Wormsy from special Camps will reward the player with special upgrades that change how crops can be sown and grow. Each of the four common crop types can be upgraded to use either Propagators or Garden Beds. If the player's Desert Seeds are currently growing Grapes, then the following items will affect them.
If the player chose the Desert Propagator, allowing them to plant Desert Seeds quickly in lines:
- Dupligator: Sown Desert seeds have a chance to duplicate. Effect increases with length of line.
