Why a Honey Sprinkler Beats Manual Watering
The Honey Sprinkler auto-waters a 5 × 5 grid every 10 minutes, granting +15% growth speed and triggering Bee Hive pollination without a single click. Stack two or three and you can AFK entire harvest cycles while crops mature faster than a bee can buzz "nectar."
Prerequisites
- Player level 18+ (unlocks Sprinkler blueprint)
- Tier 1 Workbench or higher
- Bee Hive Tier 1 within 8 tiles (for pollination synergy, optional but recommended)
- Steady supply of regular Honey Jars (one jar every 10 min)
Materials Checklist
| Material | Amount | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Honeycombs | 15 | Wild hives or Bee Hive harvests |
| Iron Ingots | 10 | Smelt from Iron Ore (2 Ore → 1 Ingot) |
| Gold | 6 000 | Any crop sales |
Step 1 | Unlock the Blueprint
- Open Workbench → Schematics → Irrigation.
- Select Honey Sprinkler.
- Pay 500 Gold research fee (one-time).
Step 2 | Craft the Sprinkler
- Load the Workbench with 15 Honeycombs + 10 Iron Ingots.
- Cover the 6 000 Gold fee.
- Crafting time: 30 seconds.
- Item drops into inventory under Tools → Irrigation.
Step 3 | Placement for Maximum Coverage
- Equip the Sprinkler and click the ground.
- Align so its 5 × 5 highlight overlaps your densest crop area.
- Position a Bee Hive within 8 tiles to ensure pollination beams reach all watered plots.
- Optional: chain sprinklers in a grid; leave one-tile gaps to avoid overlap waste.
Step 4 | Loading Honey and Maintenance
- Capacity: 12 Honey Jars (≈ 2 hours unattended).
- Right-click → drag jars into reservoir.
- Each jar waters and adds a +15% growth buff tick.
- Honey cost per hour: 6 jars.
- Tip: Run Tier 2 Bee Hive to auto-produce jars and create a closed loop.
Upgrade Paths
| Tier | Upgrade Cost | Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| 1 → 2 | 4 000 Gold + 20 Honeycombs + 5 Royal Jelly | +50% reservoir (18 jars) and –1 min interval |
| 2 → 3 | 7 000 Gold + 30 Honeycombs + 1 Queen Larva | 5 × 5 → 7 × 7 radius |
ROI Snapshot (Tier 1)
- Cost: 6 000 Gold + mats (~3 000 Gold market value).
- Typical Moon Melon field +15% speed ≈ +11 400 Gold/hour.
- Break-even: <1 hour of active farming.
Common Mistakes
- Loading Royal Honey — only regular Honey works; Royal won't dispense.
- Placing Sprinkler off-center — wasted tiles outside range.
- Running dry — empty Sprinkler stops both water and Bee polling.
- Overlapping two Tier 3 units — double watering doesn't stack buffs.
- Ignoring Bee Hive health — low-health hives suspend pollination, halving value.
Advanced Tips
Sprinkler-Bee Loop Automation
Place two Tier 2 Hives diagonal to a Tier 3 Sprinkler. Each Honey Burst from the hives refills 1 jar into the Sprinkler (auto-pickup) and pollinates simultaneously, maintaining near-infinite operation.
Night-Shift Scheduling
Load 12 jars before logging out; by morning the Sprinkler finishes a full 2-hour cycle, delivering one extra harvest without manual input.
Honey Cost Reduction
During Bee Coin sales, convert Coins → Honey at Trader Buzz (15 Coins → 1 jar). Stockpile 300 jars when coin price dips, fuel a week of AFK farming at a fraction of normal Gold cost.
FAQ
- Does fertilizer apply before the Sprinkler buff?
- Yes. Fertilizer multipliers stack first; Sprinkler's +15% applies after.
- Can Sprinklers boost vertical crops?
- Yes, Beanstalk and Dragon Vine accept watered ticks.
- Are Sprinklers tradable?
- No. They bind on craft.
- Do multiple Sprinklers stack on the same plot?
- No. Only one watering tick per 10 min per plot counts.
- Does rain pause Honey consumption?
- Rain waters crops but Sprinklers still fire and consume jars.
Conclusion
A Honey Sprinkler turns jars into growth speed, pollination triggers, and pure free time. Pay the upfront 6 000 Gold once, slot it at the heart of your orchard, feed it a steady Honey diet—and watch your busy farm run itself.
