As alluded to in that lede, this upcoming patch will make a number of changes to the harvesting mechanic, including a new seed that can drop from certain monsters and bosses which can be planted in the Sacred Grove to give nearby seeds additional additional properties when harvested among other adjustments.
Harvest crafting will be getting updates in the patch as well: Growth times of Tier 1 seeds will be a static three growth cycles with the exception of rare seeds, Harvest Crafts can no longer be used on Itemised Beasts, and a slew of bug fixes are in the works. There’s also several general gameplay improvements coming with the patch, naturally.
