On Halflinger Farms, this means planting Golden Trees. Players Lv. 33 and above can begin by accepting the quest ‘[Growing Gold] Complete the Farm’ to start the tutorial. After learning the basics from the Halflingers, you’re ready to grow your own plants! Plant seeds in pots and give them dew to help them grow. Hunt monsters within your level range (20 levels below and 20 levels above) to acquire dew. Water your plant well so that it grows big and strong. Once your plant is fully grown, it’s ready to harvest. Harvesting plants rewards you with Research Coins and Golden Leaves. You can receive different seeds and use more pots depending on your plant management rank. Your rank increases once you have grown required number of plants in a given rank.
