At the beginning of the game, Badruu - the gardening skill affiliate - will give each new character a patch of soil. It can be placed on the home lot. Players should then use their hoe tool to till the soil.

Each patch can support nine plants in a 3x3 arrangement. This layout is both beginner-friendly and low maintenance. The tomatoes will help keep the soil moist, so gardeners will need to water their plants less frequently.

On occasion, lucky players will receive star-quality apple tree seeds. Those who have larger quantities of star crop seeds will benefit from this 9x9 layout, which includes seeds like tomatoes, wheat, apples, and rice.

Star-quality crops are better for making glow worms, cooking, gifting, and making gold (money). The only downside is that this setup will require a bit more maintenance in the form of watering and weeding. Ensure that watering cans and other gardening tools are in good condition and repair them if needed before gardening.
