My goal with this video is simple, a concise zero to hero guide to gardening and making a ton of gil.

With new houses being added into FFXIV this means so many more players are going to finally get their grubby cat or bunny adjacent paws on one of the best gil making systems in the game– gardening!

If this gardening guide helps you I’d super appreciate if you slammed that like button with a barbequed hamburger cause holy I want some– and cat daddies that subscribe button!

For gardening there are plenty of items that can make gil, this can range from intermediate seeds like flat out growing tantalplant seeds I will mention here can earn good gil. Jute and a few other types can make housing items like the much desired combed wool rug. There are minions as well like the allagan melon, eggplant knight, mandragora queen and a few others. But there has, in all the years I’ve been doing gardening, not been a single better result than producing thavnairian onion seeds.

These are always in demand because chocobos require these in order to level and chocobos are very useful in anything involving the open world which can even help in the hunt train. High level chocobos are really monstrous actually.

But enough of that, to gardening!

So first up you need a garden plot. I recommend avoiding your knee jerk reaction to go to the marketboard to pick up these since often times people are reselling higher than the NPC, though sometimes you can get a deal. These are 48k gil per plot from the housing merchant in your ward.

Large houses can have a max of 3, medium 2 and small 1 of these garden plots. The deluxe is required since it allows you to farm the most seeds and successfully cross seeds which I will explain shortly.

The only two things necessary once you have the garden plots are soil and seeds which will be determined by what your goal is to farm.

I will cite a tried and true website called ffxiv gardening which through the years has proved absolutely invaluable and you can find awesome information like what you can garden to obtain, how to crossbreed, crossbreed diagrams and more. This website is basically your gardening encyclopedia.

For the purposes of this guide however we’re going to be using specifically Ivory’s advanced compact thavnairian onion farm. This can be used on as few as one deluxe garden plot or scale as high as you want like right now I run 6 on Gilgamesh between my two houses. I just do the exact pattern per individual plot.

Step 1 Tantalplant Seeds

So if you really want to just dive right in and buy tantalplant seeds you can skip ahead to the next chapter of this video or timestamp. But for people who aren’t absolutely overflowing in gil and are intimidated by the wild marketboard prices let’s get into it here.

To get tantalplant seeds, which we will need 3 of per garden plot, we want to cross krakka roots with midland basil seeds. Easiest way to get midland basil seeds is marketboard but they are farmable in costa del sol. Krakka root seeds and potting soil can be bought from the housing NPC. Lastly grade 3 thanalan topsoil which can be farmed, or bought off the marketboard but my favorite is you also can dump poetic tomestones into buying unidentifiable ore from Hismenaand turn them in for grade 3 thanalan topsoil from Bertana in Idyllshire.

  1. This is a really really good video for what can be quite confusing and so far not terribly well explained aspect of housing. Don’t feed the trolls, they have onion breath, I love the suggestion you’re going to crash the onion market 😸😸

  2. Mm.
    We got Greek god crafted gear and Thavnairian guard tomestone gear in 6.0/6.1 so 6.2 will drop Garlemald gear as tomestones most likely. Maybe more pvp gear for crafting.
    Think Imma just save all my gil til 6.4 since its the last time new gears dropping besides the 6.5 alliance and treasure map mat glam.
    Im at 525 faux leaves so I cant hawk a mount on the mb for minimum three more weeks ugh thanks for a guide Cole

  3. I usually say: no numbers and estimate gold/gil income = trash video. I am sorry to say, but this statement is especially true for gardening. I play on Cerberus-EU and for a longest time its not viable to grow th'onions yourself. There are just so many easier ways to get gil (and more efficient).
    BTW to be succesfull in gardening you need few things:
    1. House obv.
    2. Time and motivation for watering it EVERY single day. you wont get away with watering plants every second day if you plant th'onions yourself.
    3. Be sure to count one or two dead seeds in your gil income calculations, since I am 100% sure you will forget to water them. That alone tramps the idea of playing when you want to and not logging in, when you rather do/play something else.
    PS. At the very least, you explained advanced cross-planting in a nice, easy to understand way^^.
