Information About the Ferru (Trollweed) Plant

    Hello reader! I'm sure you've come here to scroll down the the part where I tell you how to get your trollweed to grow, so I'll make it easy for you.




    Step #1: Cross-Breed several different plants to eventually get a Ferru plant.

    Tip: I've found that mixing reeds + melons work well. You can
    also try stickreed + stickreed. Your best bet is to lay a bunch of
    crossbreeding crops down between several plants until you see a tiny pale green
    stalk pop up. Also make sure that once you've successfully grown a
    Ferru(Trollweed) plant, remove all other crops from around it in order to give
    it more air.



    Step #2: Wait until the Ferru plant reaches this stage:



    Tip: Don't worry about fertilizing it until then.



    Step #3 Place an iron ORE block directly underneath the soil patch containing your Ferru plant like so:




    Step #4 Repeatedly fertilize and hydrate your crop every 10 minutes or so. You don't have to, but it will take a hell of a long time if you don't.



    Step #5 Your crop will reach the final stage and will be ready to harvest. Now just cross your fingers and hope you get a seed drop!



    Ferru Plant Stages:



    Stage 1:




    Stage 2:





    Stage 3:




    Stage 4 (Finale Stage):



    You dont have to cross finger to hope to get a second seed, Just plant your best plant next to the ferru with a cross breed stick in between and clear all plant that spawn that are not ferru.


    so after a while you can harvest the middle ferru and just re-plant it further and voila, infinite ferru garden.

    You can take anything you want from here. I just thought a specific guide for Trollweed would be helpful to everyone who's been having problems.

    Also remember that Aurelia looks like Ferru in early stages so if you Ferru doesn't seem to be maturing you should try replacing Iron Ore block with a Gold Ore one.

    Everything you have here is already known. People are just too... lazy ...to find it. I think I will modify my post a little by adding some pictures from here.

    I hope you ment Stickreeds. not regular once :D because if you wasted your time trying to get ferru from regular reeds then... sorry :D

    I bred a cocoa plant and terra wart together and got this :D

    Over modding is the key to success.


    One day creepers will learn how to use doors. Then nobody will be safe...

    I can't believe how slow Ferru grows!


    I can harvest my 1/1/1 pumpkin patch five times in the time it takes my 11/11/3 Ferru to grow from a seedbag
