We’ll provide a deep dive into how the new Daily Quest system works, explain the odds and rewards of the Gardener Seed Pack, and break down the stats and strategic value of the Urchin Plant itself to show you why it should be your new top priority.
The Revamped Daily Quest System Explained
With the release of the Fairy Event Part 2 update, the Daily Quest system has been transformed from a minor activity into one of the most important and rewarding daily routines in the game. This is now the only way to obtain the Urchin Plant.
A New Daily Routine
Each day when you log in, you will be presented with a new set of Daily Quests. These are typically simple tasks that can be completed during a normal play session, such as harvesting a certain number of crops, selling a specific type of fruit, or interacting with your pets.
Earning Quest Points
The new system is built around Quest Points. The progression is straightforward:
- Completing 1 Daily Quest rewards you with 1 Quest Point.
- There appears to be a daily cap of 3 Quests, meaning you can earn a maximum of 3 Quest Points per day.
The Grand Prize: The Gardener Seed Pack
The primary motivation for collecting Quest Points is to earn the Gardener Seed Pack. This is the key reward from the Daily Quest system and the only source of the Urchin Plant seed. To earn one of these packs, you must accumulate a total of 9 Quest Points.
The Three-Day Time Gate: A Test of Consistency
This is the crucial mechanic that kept the Urchin Plant a secret for so long after the update. Because you can only earn a maximum of three Quest Points per day, it takes a minimum of three consecutive days of completing all of your daily quests to earn a single Gardener Seed Pack. This system rewards dedicated, consistent play. You cannot simply grind for hours on a single day to get the pack; you must log in and play every day for three days to claim your reward. This makes the Gardener Seed Pack a true mark of a dedicated player.
The Gardener Seed Pack: Odds and Rewards
After three days of diligent questing, you will finally have your Gardener Seed Pack. This special item contains a variety of useful seeds, but the ultimate chase item within it is, of course, the Urchin Plant.
A 10% Chance at a Divine Crop
The Urchin Plant has a 10% chance to be obtained from the Gardener Seed Pack. While this may not sound high, it is a game-changing statistic. The Urchin Plant is the only Divine-tier crop in the entire game with such a high obtainment chance from a seed pack. For comparison, most other Divine crops available in various shop packs have an abysmal drop rate of less than 1%. This makes the three-day grind for a Gardener Seed Pack feel incredibly rewarding and worthwhile, as it gives you a very realistic and achievable path to obtaining a powerful Divine crop without relying on extreme luck.
The Urchin Plant: A Full Breakdown
If you are lucky enough to get the 10% drop, you will be rewarded with one of the most valuable and reliable crops in the game.
Overview and Key Stats
- Tier: Divine
- Harvests: Multi-harvest
- Average Value: Approximately 111,111 Sheckles
- Base Value: Approximately 100,278 Sheckles
- Average Weight: Approximately 8 kg
- Huge Chance: 0.25%
Strategic Value and Comparison
The Urchin Plant’s power lies in the combination of its two key traits: it is both Divine-tier and multi-harvest. This makes it an incredible asset for any farm, providing a consistent and recurring source of high-tier income from a single planting. Once you have one, you can continue to harvest it for a massive profit without needing to acquire more seeds.
To put its value into perspective, the community has noted that the Urchin Plant sells for the exact same value as the Princess Thorn, a very popular but limited-time Divine crop from the old Beanstalk Event. The Princess Thorn has been unobtainable for a long time, and many players missed their chance to get it. The Urchin Plant is effectively the new, permanently obtainable equivalent to that powerful but exclusive crop. This makes the Urchin Plant a top-tier and essential goal for all players, both new and old, who are looking to maximize their farm’s income potential.
Make sure you are completing your three daily quests every single day. The consistent effort will be well worth it when you finally add this incredible, spiky, and highly profitable plant to your garden!
