How to Get Rockhopper Pumpkin in Palia

Rockhopper Pumpkin is a new crop in Palia that you can only get by growing it yourself. Unlike Batterfly Beans, which are also added to Palia with Rockhopper Pumpkin, the Rockhopper Pumpkin does not grow in the wild in Elderwood. The only way to obtain Rockhopper Pumpkins is to grow them in your Plot area.

To grow the Rockhopper Pumpkin, you will first have to get the Rockhopper Pumpkin Seeds. After getting the Rockhopper Pumpkin Seeds, you will have to plant them in the Soil in your Plot area.

Where to Get the Rockhopper Pumpkin Seeds in Palia

Players can acquire the Rockhopper Pumpkin Seeds from Tamala Potion’s Shop. It is a new shop that players will get to unlock by progressing in the main story. To be exact, players will unlock the Tamala Potion Shop during the Nature of Shadows quest. Upon unlocking the shop, you can interact with the stall in the Centra Stables or speak with Tamala to access the Potion Shop. Here, you will be able to purchase the Rockhopper Pumpkin Seeds for 500 Infected Essence.

NOTE: The Infected Essence spawns regularly throughout the Elderwood map zone.

Plant the Rockhopper Pumpkin Seeds at Your Plot

Rockhopper Pumpkin seeds take 2×2 blocks of Soil to plant. Upon planting the seeds, you need to water them each day (in-game) because it will take 9 days (9 hours in real-time) for the Rockhopper Pumpkin to fully grow. Once the Rockhopper Pumpkin has matured fully, you will be able to harvest it by pressing the F Button. It will give you 6-9 Rockhopper Pumpkins on each harvest. Using the Harvest Boost can get you up to 12 Rockhopper Pumpkins at a time.
