Hello Everyone, I am hoping to expand the moderate amount of Gardening knowledge that I have learned, thanks to this new abundance of friendly forums on FFXIOnline.com. I posted almost the same question on Allakhazam, and no one had any idea. I myself have run experiments and have come up short for my basic question. So, Ill just say it.

I feel an obsession to know the element of the Arcane Pot, the Wooden Pot, and the Wildgrass seeds. I will reply to my own thread to show how finding out the element of Wildgrass could be achieved, but so far I have had absolutely no help. I am almost tempted to think that wildgrass seeds are special in that they have more than one element, especially, the arcane pot and the wooden pot. Unfortunately, I i still dont have either of those pots to with which to experiment. I think I can get an Arcane Pot with my second attempt at the Strange Apparatus' Quest. I have all the passwords, so i sign in on doctor level. The first time I went to Dangruf Wadi with a green chip and infinity core, but logged on and get my thing dispensed on Earthday. I got a Rune Sword which i sold for more than twice the cost of the chip. But I heard from several people that to get the Arcane Pot in the Strange Apparatus in The Horutotu Ruins, which are Lightning based. You have to sign in as a doctor with the password. You then give the Apparatus a Lightining Chip on Lightning Day. I have heard at least 4 people confirm that they got their Arcane Pot. As for the Wooden Pot, I know i will have to fish Blue Marlins or Blue Fish of sometype, and I will never have enough fishing skill to get them map. That Sucks!!!
If there is anyone on Alexander that would please be willing to sell me a Wooden Pot on Alexander, I would be gracious.

Anyway, the whole point of this thread is to see if there is anyone experienced enough or in with Square that can fill in the Elemental Attributes of these Two Pots and the Wildgrass Seeds. If we know he Elemental forces of Pots and Seeds, we can use various techniques to give us great crops.

The elemental breakdown for pots is this:

Brass = Fire
Earthen = Earth
Ceramic = Water
Porcelain = Wind
Wooden = ???
Arcane = ???

The elemental breakdown for seeds is this:

Grain = Fire
Vegetable = Earth
Fruit = Water
Herb = Wind
Tree Cuttings = Ice
Tree Saplings = Dark
Cactus Stems = Light
Wildgrass Seeds = ???

*** As you can tell from the chart above, I do not know the elemental attribute for the Arcane Pot, the Wooden Pot you can fish in a quest, and the new wildgrass seeds. So if anyone knows this, please post it. The reason for knowing these elements is because they not only allow you to have a better chance of growing the plant you want, but you can figure out easier ways to grow plants you can normally grow so easily. For instance, because the original seeds' elements are Water, Wind, Earth, and Fire; and the original pots' elements are Water, Wind, Earth, and Fire as well, it makes it much more of a pain and contribution of time to grow a Purple Rock than an Yellow Rock, for example. And you can grown more Yellow Rocks at a time than Purple Rocks. This is just a very basic example.

So please, help me out on the elements, and I promise when I complete the first draft of my notes, I will write a very good Gardening Guide for Everyone. And I WILL give credit to everyone that has help me in any of my information gathering. And as far as Information Gathering, if you are like me, and keep a chart of all the gardening attempts you make, along with the results you achieved, and you are feeling generous, please email these results to zaldor@infchaosdrd.net, or infchaosdrd@sbcglobal.net, or to my PlayOnline Email, which is infchaosdrd@pol.com. It would be nice to get an email on that server that is not in Japanese. Also, if you have it in a file of almost any sort like Excel, Access, Text Delimited, etc., go ahead and attach that as well, as that is the important stuff. And I would also love to read emails of Gardening theories, especially from other Gardening Pros and Semi-Pros, even if there is no data to go along with it. Thank you all a million, and send me a tell if you can find the time--I would be overjoyed to hear from you. I have all my characters on the Alexander Server. Zaldor is my main battle/everything but gardening character. And I have one gardening mule named Xane, who has a Bastok Greenhouse--10 pots with 150+ Overflowing Earth Energy, which help to grow plants. I would recommend dedicating a Greenhouse to one of the three cities. Certain things will grow better depending on which city your greenhouse resides in. Well, Good Luck and Happy Gardening!!!!

Thank You,

After i first posted a similiar thread on allakazham.com, abou t the 3 missing elements, I devised a simple plan to find the Elemental Attributes of Wildgrass. Basically, as with all other seeds, if you plant them and pick them on the right day, i.e. no crystals used, then you could produce a colored rock, and, of course, with no fertilizer, that rock will obviously be the same element of the seed. However, I have been unable to grow a rock without fertilizer using wildgrass yet, unfortunately! But if anyone has produced a rock from wildgrass without using a fertilizing crystal, please tell me. Another clue is that you can obtain almost nothing except salt rock from using wind crystals. Salt Rock is a sign of not enough elemental fertilizer, and the only other thing you can sporadically grow besides rock salt from wind crystals, is Gysahl Greens, which are the worse crop you can get from Wildgrass Seeds. So if anyone can figure any of this stuff out, please let me know. I will soon have a huge, free, guide about Gardening to give to everyone, but I must know about those elements, or I may looknig even more foolish than I already do.

P.S.

I want to thank the 2 posters that responded so quickly on my questions about HQ synthing 1-4. Thanks a bunch, and I am tired, so I am sorry if I rambled a little.
