Solarpunk – Seed Pack Overview
| Research level | Research Tier 6 |
| Unlock requirement | 1x each of Sunflower, Cotton, Raspberry, Carrot, and Wheat |
How to Get More Seeds
Obtaining a lot more seeds will help you grow more crops for survival. Early in the game, the only way to get seeds is by randomly plucking crops found during exploration. There’s a chance you will get the required seeds this way, but it isn’t guaranteed. As you keep advancing through the tech tree and unlocking more advanced crafting options, your need to get more seeds will multiply.
Luckily, you can purchase seed packs to help you meet the demands of obtaining seeds. To find Seed Packs, head over to your research table and scroll through the various research tiers. You will find Seed Packs at Tier 6 research, which is quite a long way to go. Unlocking Tier 6 research requires 1x Sunflower, and if you haven’t found sunflowers yet, I know just the place for it.
Best Sunflower Location
Visit the small island called Lower Nice, just northeast of your starter island. Once you get here, find the waterfall and search the areas around the base of the waterfall. You might bump into some Sunflowers on the grass, as well as a few raspberry bushes. If you can’t find any here, go further down to find another bunch of Sunflowers. You just need one sunflower, so return to your base with it.
Unlocking Seed Pack
Use up the Sunflower to unlock Tier 6, then scroll down to find the Seed Pack. To unlock the Seed Pack, you will require seeds of each of the following plants:
- 1x Raspberry
- 1x Cotton
- 1x Wheat
- 1x Carrot
- 1x Sunflower
Since you have already obtained Raspberry and Sunflower, you just need to find the other items on the list. Cotton is found right on your starter island. Wheat, on the other hand, is found on the two islands to the east and west of the starter islands (The Land and Tri Island). Finding carrots is a lot trickier, as you need to upgrade your airship and travel to the southernmost island called Golden Mid.
You will just require one of each crop to unlock them, and once you do, you will require 4 of each crop type to unlock the respective seed pack. After obtaining the seed pack, all you need to do now is use it on your farmland and grow the required crop.

FAQs
Why do I need the seed pack?
Once you reach late-game production, you will require crops in larger amounts. Finding the required amount of seeds can take a while, which is why you would be better off getting seed packs.
Are there any seed packs for trees and flowers?
Currently, you will only get seed packs for crops, and the only way to grow more trees and flowers is to harvest the seeds directly from them and replant them across the overworld.
Is getting a wheat seed pack the fastest way to make bread?
Yes, finding wheat in the overworld will take a long time, so using seed packs will increase your chances of growing wheat quickly and obtaining bread faster.
