Your first Watering Can is given to you by Leafos in the tutorial. This watering can is beaten up and can only perfrom the most basic functions, but it can be upgraded, as you level up.

The Watering Can is used to water flowers and vegetables so they do not die. This process must first be done by yourself, but it can be done later by a Sprinkling helper.

Some pinatas, such as the Whirlm, become happier when sprinkled with water. For others it can be used as a way of distracting a pinata from preying on other species or plants.

When it rains, there is no need to water your plants.

The flowers turn yellowy-brown when they are too dry, but when watered they instantly are restored to their best state. If the plant starts turning blue, you're giving it too much water, which can also kill it.



Uses

Plants can be watered -- many need to be watered periodically until they are fully grown.

  • Long Pour (Button x.png)
  • Short Pour (Button a.png)

Some pinatas like to be watered at any time.

Some pinatas like to be watered sometimes.

Some pinatas prefer not to be watered.

Watering a pinata that has started a fight (whether it is a resident or a wild sour) can sometimes stop the fight.

Some characters like to be watered

  • Seedos
  • Night Watchlings
  • Day Watchlings

Some characters prefer not to be watered

  • Leafos
  • Diggerlings

Some ruffians will stop in their tracks and begin to spin slowly around if you water them continuously. This could give your resident pinata a chance to get away from the attacking ruffian.

Watering Can Achievement

Water Meter

The Water Meter shows how much water a plant has. You can use the Water Meter to make sure conditions are ideal for the plant to grow. A balance of half-blue (wet), half-white (dry) is just right.
