Pepper Seeds

Pepper Seeds are a type of seed that can be planted to grow Hot Pepper crops. Once mature, each plant yields Hot Peppers, making them the starting point for producing this summer crop.

Pepper Seeds can be bought from Pierre's General Store and JojaMart, as well as from the Magic Shop Boat at the Night Market on Winter 16. They may also appear occasionally in the Traveling Cart. In addition to direct purchase, they can be produced with a Seed Maker, and there is a chance for them to be obtained from planting Mixed Seeds.

Other sources make Pepper Seeds available in bulk. Five to twenty may occasionally be found in treasure rooms in the Skull Cavern. Opening a Mystery Box can yield eight to twenty Pepper Seeds, and the same amount can also come from a Golden Mystery Box.

Because they are both buyable and obtainable through several random sources, Pepper Seeds are a reliable way to replenish Hot Pepper production once the crop becomes available. They are especially useful when you want to keep a steady supply going without needing to wait on seasonal store stock alone.

• Plant Pepper Seeds on tilled soil to grow Hot Pepper crops.
• Use a Seed Maker if you want to turn harvested crops or other plant output into more seeds.
• Mixed Seeds can sometimes become Pepper Seeds when planted.
• Bulk sources such as Skull Cavern treasure rooms and Mystery Boxes are useful for stockpiling them without spending gold.
