In Heartopia, cooking isn’t just a hobby—it’s a way to improve your character’s abilities and unlock new possibilities.

Wheat is a particularly important ingredient, and this guide will show you how to get more of it in Heartopia.

How to Get Wheat in Heartopia

Unlike ingredients you can simply buy, Wheat needs to be grown using the Gardening skill. You won’t be able to grow it right away; you’ll first need to improve your Gardening skill to Level 2.

Once you’ve progressed to that point in the game, you can buy Wheat Seeds from Blanc, who is a gardening expert. He’s usually at the Garden Shop on Garden Street during the daytime.

Wheat seeds cost 95 Gold each and you need to be at least Gardening Level 2 to plant them. After planting, it takes 4 hours for wheat to grow. Because of the long growth time, using a fertilizer like Growth Booster is a great idea to speed things up.

You can buy the Growth Booster from Blanc. It immediately speeds up how quickly crops grow, cutting down the time by 15 minutes each time you use it. And you can use it on the same crop as many times as you like! This makes growing Wheat much faster, which is great if you cook a lot or want to sell food to make money.
