    Has anyone posted that mandrake makes all minions?
    You can do mandrake + tomato = King Tomato
    Mandrake + onion (not thav onion) = Onion Knight (alternate harvest popoto set)
    Mandrake + garlic = Garlic Jester
    Mandrake + wizard eggplant = Eggplant Knight (alternate harvest dzemael tomato seeds)
    Mandrake + lily = Queen Mandragora

    You can also get an alternate from each of those, but I get the minion seed at least once if I do mandrake onion mandrake garlic mandrake eggplant mandrake tomato. The only one that doesn't always give me at least one minion is the king tomato as I plant that last. I am going to try a different soil on the tomato next time, but I use than 3 on seed 2-8 usually.I do not regularly grow the queen as I use my lily elsewhere, but the other 4 minion seeds take only a few days to grow this way and sell for more then I can buy glazenut seeds.

    Edit: I will do a Mandrake minion Mandrake minion etc cycle to see if they can produce their own seeds, but not for a week or two.

    Hmmm, nice idea to keep in mind when my second garden is free again (Thav onions take too long. I'll have a second batch before the first ones finish growing xD)

    Code:
    mnd tom mnd      something like this maybe
    gar  x  on       eggplant knights won't be to hard to get afterwards
    mnd lil mnd
    So far my experience has been that any minion + krakka roots (and some other stuff) produces eggplant knights. So if you would plant four minions with krakka roots in between them you'll probably get a nice supply of eggplant knights, and then you can replace the krakka's with something else for a second crossbreed.

    I'm interested in knowing the alternate seeds you can get from each one.

    As for Mandrake + minion crosses, it's been reported that crossing mandrake with at least knight, jester, and king gave Pearl Roselles. As far as I know, mandrake+minion is the only way to get Pearl Roselles.
    And Pearl Roselles sound like they're a top-tier like jute, glazenut, broombush, etc., so I'm curious to know what happens when you cross them with Krakkas and the stuff you can loop other top-tiers with because of the impressions I posted about before.

    The only cross I have seen reported is Thav.Onion + Roselle = King Tomato.
    And then an uncertain report between Roselle and either Mandrake or Eggplant Knight making Jute. My guess is that it was the Roselle + Mandrake.
    My guess then is that Roselle + Almond would make Broombush, and Roselle + Krakka would either make a (I can dream) Thav.Onion, or a minion.
