Weather
Weather changes life around the Isle: wild plants, planting choices, beekeeping and the birds you encounter all respond to the current conditions.
Weathers
| Weather | What to look for | Activities and planting |
|---|---|---|
 Sunny |
Ripe Sloes and wild Oyster Mushrooms. | The normal weather between events. Outdoor cooking is available in sunny weather. |
 Rain |
Ripe Blackberries and wild Fly Agaric. | A rainy event can turn into a thunderstorm. Use indoor cooking equipment when it is not sunny outside. |
 Thunderstorm |
Ripe Blackberries. | Thunder and lightning accompany the rain. Rain and thunderstorms can change into one another during the event. |
 Snow (Cold Front) |
Ripe Cranberries, wild Button Mushrooms and robins. | Plant Lettuce and Bluebells while the cold front is active, once their worker-level requirements are met. |
 Heatwave |
Ripe Strawberries and wild Inkcap Mushrooms. | Plant Carrots and Sunflowers, and start Sunny Honey at a beehive once its beekeeper-level requirement is met. |
The scheduled rain, cold-front and heatwave events each last three days. Normal sunny weather returns when an event ends.
Growing and gathering
- Planting: Crops and Flowers list the weather required to start each plant. Most can be planted in any weather.
- Growth: a plant already in the ground continues to grow when the weather changes. A broken plot pauses its progress.
- Berries: wild berries ripen in their own weather. The bush also needs to have regrown before ordinary picking is available.
- Fungi: each wild fungus has its own spawn weather. Fungi disappear when conditions no longer match, so gather them while the appropriate weather is active.
- Beekeeping: Sunny Honey can be started only during a heatwave. Other current beehive products have no weather restriction.
