Where to find Mushroom Caps in Towers of Aghasba

Mushroom Caps grow almost exclusively in Temperate Ecosystems, meaning you generally won’t find them much outside of one. That isn’t to say you can’t find them randomly scattered, but they are certainly few and far between and not really a viable option if you need them in abundance. The easiest way to obtain Mushroom Caps is to grow them yourself within a Temperate Ecosystem. Thankfully, the main storyline of Towers of Aghasba shows you how to grow a Temperate ecosystem, so if you’ve progressed far enough, you should already have access to one.

How to grow Mushroom Caps

Growing Mushroom Caps is really easy, but there is a bit of randomness and time involved.

First, get your hands on a few Temperate Seeds. These grow from the top of your Temperate Colossal Tree, so climb up there and grab a few. If you don’t have any there, wait some time for them to grow back. It won’t take long.

Any Temperate Seeds you pick up will go straight to your inventory, so open it and select Use on a Temperate Seed. Plant the seed in your Temperate ecosystem, and then look at the mound it leaves behind. You should see exactly what’s growing from the seed you planted, as well as a timer depicting how long the process will take.

This is where the randomness I mentioned earlier comes into play. Every time you plant a Temperate Seed, there is a random chance for it to be a Mushroom, which is what you’re looking for. So, if the seed you planted is not a Mushroom growing, plant more seeds until you get one. Then, wait out the timer.

Once a Mushroom has fully grown, it is ripe for harvesting. Head over to it and equip a Shovel to harvest it from its root. Once done, you’ll receive a variable amount of Mushroom Caps. This whole process can be repeated as many times as needed.
