A Watering can is an item that members use in the Farming skill to water vegetables and flowers as well as potted tree seeds, but not other farming patches.
Watering a patch will decrease it's possibility of disease for one growing stage. If players have fully-grown flowers protecting the surrounding vegetables, they do not need to water those vegetables. This is a better alternative than spending money and using inventory space for plant cure.
It can hold up to 8 doses of water. After players use them up, they will need to refill it at any water source, such as sinks, waterpumps, and even from wells after an update.
Players can also transfer water from one watering can to another by using one on the other. If a watering can has 3 doses and it is used on one that has 4 doses, the player will end up with an empty watering can and a watering can with 7 doses.
Players can buy a watering can from farming shops. Full watering cans are also rare drops from a farmer. Watering cans cannot be withdrawn from banks in notes. Watering cans with the same number of doses do stack in the bank. Watering cans with any number of doses are not tradeable, but empty watering cans are tradeable. Watering cans with any amount of water cannot be sold back to stores, and they cannot be emptied.
Watering a patch has no overall impact on volume of yield, it only serves to protect a patch from disease for one stage of growth.
