🐛 Worm Farm Worms
Turns food into Worms and QualityUp Fertilizer. Great to sustain normal fishing and boost quality of crops/trees.
💡 Glow Worm Farm Glow Worms
Turns food into Glow Worms and HarvestBoost Fertilizer. Key for rare/night fishing and multiplying quantity of harvests.
Where to use fertilizers?
- QualityUp → high-value crops/trees: tomatoes, fruit trees (apple/blueberry), onions.
- HarvestBoost → multi-harvest crops and fast cycles: rice, tomatoes, vine crops.
🐛 Best Inputs for the Worm Farm
Prioritize cheap inputs that can be mass-produced with good return of worms + QualityUp.
| Input | Expected Yield | Why it works | Priority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grilled Fish (better if ⭐) | Lots of worms + constant QUp | Mass fishing → grilling in bulk → farm. Low cost, scalable. | Meta |
| Hunting Meat (Sernuk/Chapaa/Muujin) | High worms + QUp | Turns hunting leftovers into valuable resources. | High |
| Pickles/Preserves (potato, onion, corn) | Stable worms + QUp | Garden → processed → fertilizer value. | Solid |
| Mushrooms/Oysters | Medium | Great for dumping cheap forage into worms + QUp. | Situational |
💡 Best Inputs for the Glow Worm Farm
Look for inputs with strong glow worm + HarvestBoost return that you can repeat in bulk.
| Input | Expected Yield | Why it works | Priority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bouillabaisse (fish dish) | 1–2 glow + 8–11 HB approx. | Turns valuable fish into max return. | Meta |
| Grilled Fish ⭐ | Very good ratio | Great use of glow-bait fishing runs. | High |
| Congee (rice) | Stable + consistent HB | Cheap loop: rice ⇄ congee ⇄ glow farm ⇄ HB ⇄ more rice. | Solid |
| Mushrooms (Mountain Morels) / non-⭐ meat | Medium | Turns cheap forage into 25g/worm + HB. | Situational |
| Jams/Fruit | Low-medium | Useful if you focus on gardening and have fruit surplus. | Optional |
