Cultivation -- beYou House Plants

We have released 6 sets of House Plant families (20 varieties in each) that will be grown **ONLY** by the Cultivation Profession. As always, these items are subject to change as needed.

Growing house plants will become part of the leveling crafting requirements for the Cultivation profession. They will become ingredients for many of the crafting recipes for Mixology, which will be needed for Artisan and other professions; personal care specifically.

## How House Plants Work

Below you will learn some of how the house plants work. Be advised that not all information will be available right away. Changes will be made to this page as more information becomes available.

### Types of House Plants

There are currently six plant families available for cultivation.  Each plant family has a mother plant that will cultivate different strains of plants used for other professions.

> *Note potted plants A.B,C,D category to find the potted plant vendors correspond to the images below. Example the first row leaves of each image will be in category A.*

     Money Plant Family (Fall)

Mother Plants will be available in the Cultivation Area of the beYou main store in the Cultivation Department. As more plant families become available, only the Mother Plant will be available at the beYou Main Store.

### Tools Needed

### Harvests

> When you harvest grown plants, 20 assets of cut plants will be delivered directly to your assets. House plant cuts are crafting ingredients for assorted new Cultivation Shed Recipes. Below is a cheat sheet of the new recipes for the Cultivation Shed Recipes.

### Selling/Using Potted Plants

> You can sell/gift cuts using a vendor from the bY Cultivation Supplies II Packager.
>
>
> Potted house plants can be sold and used by anyone. Potted house plants work the same way as beYou Artwork.
>
>
> Potted house plants will give 1-3 house plant leaves per stat boost, depending on the specific plant.
>
>
>
> **NOTE**: House plant leaves can be used to convert for random amounts of beBucks and/or Stat Boosts through a terminal on the main beYou Sim
>
>

### Summary/Simplified Recap of the process

>
> * Get the mother plant in one of the 6 types - look at the list if your looking for certain cuts you want to start a mother in that category (ie if you want Dandy Lions you would need a mother in the Strelitzia family)
> * Pot the mother in the Potting station
> * It gives you TWO things right after you finish potting it,
>
>
>
> >
> > * a POTTED plant in your packager II for beBucks & stats (sellable) and
> > * a potted plant (on your website profile gifts) that gives you a seed once you rez it and set it up
> >
>
>
> - in 24hrs the "growing seed" pot will give you a random seed in your assets (1 of 20 based on the mother plant) and disappear.
>
> - Hop on your beYou Cultivation Soil click an empty plot, and you will be able to plant that seed.
>
> - Once your PLANTED crop in your soil states Ready to Harvest!, Sit on your soil and harvest the plant. Cuts and possible bonus items, as stated in the detailed explanation above, are directly loaded to your assets.

I hope this simplification helps you understand the process better ... Lets Cultivate!!!
