Your first farm
Gnome Bot is played through Discord commands and the controls in its messages. Your first goal is to plant wheat, harvest it, and sell the collected wheat for coins. You can do this with the starter supplies.
Create your farmer
Section titled “Create your farmer”/startRun this in a server with Gnome Bot.
If Gnome is missing from your server, ask a server manager to add Gnome to Discord.
The bot creates one farmer profile for your Discord account. In the reply, select Use Discord language to follow your Discord app, or choose one of the bot’s 12 languages. Change this later with /settings. Any votes you cast before registering are credited with the starter pack.
Your starter pack contains the following resources.
| Resource | Starting amount | What to do with it |
|---|---|---|
| Coins | 100 | Buy replacement seeds in the market |
| Wheat seeds | 10 | Plant your first crops |
| Blueberry seeds | 4 | Keep them for the Berry Garden at level 2 |
| Main farm plots | 4 | Plant one seed in each empty plot |
| Farmer XP | 0 | Gain XP by harvesting |
Running /start again reports that your farm already exists. It does not reset your farmer or give another starter pack; you can still use its language selector to update your preference.
Plant your first wheat
Section titled “Plant your first wheat”/farmOpen your farm and its action buttons.
See the bot’s farm message and controls for a new farm with four empty plots.
- Press Plant. The bot opens your seed selection.
- Choose Wheat. If the bot asks for a star variant, choose the unstarred seeds in your starter pack.
- Choose an amount, such as 4, to fill your four empty plots. Planting consumes one seed per plot and fills empty plots automatically.
- Return to the farm view. Read the crop status to see the timer; a sprout is still growing, while Ready! means it can be harvested.
Unmodified wheat takes 1 minute to grow. Planting four wheat consumes four of your ten seeds. You do not need to buy a seed for this first batch.
Water, wait, and harvest
Section titled “Water, wait, and harvest”Press Water in the farm view, or use /water for your own main farm. At watering can level 1, self-watering reduces the base growth time by 4% and adds harvest XP. You can also ask another registered farmer to use /water person:@you; support watering has its own slot and rewards the helper with XP.
Press Refresh when you return to the farm. When the batch is ready, press Harvest. This collects all ready main-farm crops; growing crops stay planted. The harvested wheat enters your inventory, the plots become empty, and you gain harvest XP. A seed return is a chance, so a harvest can succeed without returning seeds.
Sell the wheat and plant again
Section titled “Sell the wheat and plant again”/inventoryCheck Seeds and Crops, then use Sell for the harvest.
Choose Crops to check your wheat, then press Sell. Select the item and the offered quantity, and review the sale before confirming. Unstarred wheat has a base sale value of 2 coins each. Starred harvests can have a different value, so use the bot’s sale summary for the actual total.
Keep the Seeds category separate from your harvested crops: selling your seed stock reduces what you can plant next. Buy more wheat seeds through /market when needed; the base price is 1 coin each.
Try your first harvest
Local training examplePractice the farming loop here. Nothing is connected to your Discord account; this crop grows in five seconds for the lesson.
- Create farmer
- Open farm
- Plant seed
- Grow crop
- Harvest
- Open inventory
- Sell crop
Training plotEmpty plot
Step 1 of 7
Begin with /start to create a farmer profile.
What opens next?
Section titled “What opens next?”Keep harvesting to gain XP, and use /profile to check your farmer level. Two early targets are:
- At level 2, plant your four starter blueberry seeds in the Berry Garden.
- At level 3, open the coop and use the market to buy chicks and feed.
Farmer level and crop stars are separate systems. Buying plots gives more space but does not raise your level. The full unlock table and vote requirements are in levels and progression; daily, vote, and mailbox rewards are in rewards and events.
Your inventory persists between commands. Closing Discord does not require you to start again; reopen the farm to read its current timers and collect ready crops.
If the first loop stops
Section titled “If the first loop stops”| What you see | Next step |
|---|---|
| Farm not set up | Run /start once, then reopen /farm |
| No seeds or not enough seeds | Open /inventory → Seeds; buy replacements in /market, or choose a smaller amount |
| No empty plots | Harvest ready crops; growing plots remain occupied |
| No ready crops | Read the remaining timer, wait, then press Refresh |
| Coins unchanged after harvest | Open /inventory → Sell to sell the collected crops |
Continue with crop values and seed returns, watering and weather, or the full command guide. For interaction errors, use troubleshooting.
