A potato is a crop that grows on farmland from potato seeds.

Obtaining[]

Harvesting[]

Harvesting a potato yields 1 - 3 potatoes, 1 - 2 potato seeds, and 12 Farming XP (42 XP with the 4x daily bonus). The chance of obtaining more than one potato per plant is increased by the player's Farming level and for owners of the VIP gamepass. The 5% chance of obtaining an extra potato seed is increased for owners of the pro gamepass.

Totems[]

A potato totem will collect and replant potatoes in a 3-block radius, which can then be collected by interacting it. A potato totem placed next to a conveyor belt will drop the potatoes onto the conveyor, but doing so will make them oily. This process cannot yield extra potato seeds.
