The garden

Remove unwanted blackberry bushes and turn planted plots back into grass

October 13 crop-removal discussion and released-game farming guide · Sources checked October 16, 2026

The short answer

Cast Song of Tilling and target the existing planted plot to remove it. The farming guide says the enchanted shovel turns that plot back into grass for 30 mana and returns the growing plant’s seed. A blackberry grower’s question describes clearing the plot, then making a new one if they want to plant again.

Clear the plot, then decide whether to replant

  1. Identify the unwanted bush and its existing plot before casting.
  2. Use Song of Tilling on that plot; the guide describes the shovel removing it.
  3. Check that the ground is grass again and check inventory for the returned seed.
  4. To grow something else there, prepare a new plot, then sow the replacement seed.

Why this differs from harvesting or Insta Ungrow

Harvesting berries leaves the bush growing. Plot removal and making another plot are separate actions, so this is not a free crop swap. The farming guide describes Insta Ungrow for the overgrown quest gondola; it does not establish a free blackberry-removal shortcut. A reply suggests a mana upgrade, without measuring the saving.
