How can I get water so I can weed & water this flax bed?
- You probably have the Nile Green flax seeds. You can avoid the watering step by getting Old Egypt seeds instead. Go back to the art school and ask for more seeds. You can do this every 2 minutes till you get the Old Egypt seeds. (Old Egypt seeds don't require water, but only give 1 flax per harvest. Nile Green requires water, but gives 2 flax per harvest).
- To gather water, you need jugs to hold it in. You can get your first jug by visiting the School of Thought and attempting to learn the pottery skill. The school will give you a jug to help you gather clay with. Later you can make more jugs by gathering clay and wood, creating wet jugs on a pottery wheel and firing them in a kiln.
