Can some one explain "Mog Gardens"

[Alhanelem]

It's unclear to me what mog gardens are even good for. I tried it once, spent like 20 mins on the tutorials, got nothing interesting and basically never went there again. Chacharoon's Cheer and the monster rearing don't sound interesting at all. Playing as the monsters in monstrosity seems a lot more fun than raising them.

If you're a crafter, it gives you a bunch of crafting items every day you can use for various recipes. If you aren't a crafter, you can AH or NPC the stuff, and the moogle in the garden will buy the items, which makes it a decent gil source for new players. You can get several moat carp a day from the freshwater pond, so it helps with the Lu Shang quest. Also, the flotsam gives a lot of useful items. Most of the nodes can only be used so many times per day, but the garden furrows can be done multiple times a day depending on the seed used. Also, instead of gardening with pots in your mog house, you get a lot more items using seeds in the furrows instead.

BlueGartr has a huge thread on what items they've received from the gardens, and there is some nice stuff to be had.
