LeviticusFox Posted 8 hours ago Report Posted 8 hours ago (edited) I recently tried to plant a berry bush in a large planter because I thought it would look nice with the new bush styles and was sad to discover that you cannot. It makes sense that it is not implemented; the berry bushes have a lot of new mechanics that would need to be translated to the pot, such as nutrient values, fertilizer, harvesting, etc. I think it would add a lot of aesthetic value to the game if you could plant berry bushes in them and possibly other crops as well. If there really must be some mechanical advantage, then perhaps the ability to move the potted plant by putting it in a backpack slot could be implemented, meaning you could move sensitive crops between a greenhouse and outdoors to optimize their lifecycle or transport your precious pineapple to your new home. Not all plants thrive when potted in real life, of course, but many do just fine or better when potted, and I feel like allowing any crop is in-line with the other design choices in VS, such as letting any sapling be planted in the pots. During my most recent playthrough, I found myself and other players apprehensive to place berry cuttings. Because of their newfound permanence in 1.22, there is a feeling that you should be placing them somewhere you want them to be forever, which caused us to delay making a berry farm until we had finished a couple large structures. Being able to pot and move them around would alleviate this somewhat. Edited 7 hours ago by LeviticusFox spelling and phrasing 1
