Due to its location and Dreamlight cost, the Forgotten Lands are likely going to be the last biome that Disney Dreamlight Valley players unlock as they progress through the game. While there currently isn't much to do in the Forgotten Lands at this point in Early Access, this biome is filled with opportunities for players to get all kinds of valuable resources.
In addition to being the only place where players can get Diamonds, the Forgotten Lands are also home to the most valuable vegetable in the entire game. The vegetable in question is Pumpkins. This guide will show players how to get pumpkins and what they are used for.
How to Unlock the Forgotten Lands
Before Disney Dreamlight Valley players are able to get their hands on Pumpkins, they will first need to open the Forgotten Lands. To do this, they will first need access to the Sunlit Plateau biome. Near the giant elephant skull is a ramp that leads up toward the Forgotten Lands. In order to enter the final biome, players will need to amass 15,000 Dreamlight.
How to Get Pumpkins
Like many vegetables in Disney Dreamlight Valley, Pumpkins do not grow naturally. Players must purchase seeds and plant them. Of course, players will need to repair Goofy's Stall in the Forgotten Lands first. While the repair cost of 5,000 Star Coins may seem like highway robbery, it is worth it since it unlocks Pumpkin Seeds for players.
What Are Pumpkins Used For?
The most prominent use, at first, is to make meals with the Pumpkins. In fact, there are many recipes in the game that require Pumpkins. However, Pumpkins have another purpose that makes them very valuable to Disney Dreamlight Valley players. The cost of a single seed is 275 Star Coins. Growing that Pumpkin and then selling it gives players 664 Star Coins. A single pumpkin nets a profit of 389 Star Coins. So if players plant a bunch of Pumpkin Seeds, they can make a very large profit within a few hours.
Players should keep in mind that the trade-off for this is that it takes a very long time for Pumpkins to grow. It takes four hours for Pumpkins to grow, and they have to be watered again with the Royal Watering Can two hours after they were planted. So, players can easily plant all of their Pumpkins and go back to doing other activities throughout the valley or help some Disney characters in a Friendship Quest while the Pumpkins grow.
If players want to make even more money from harvesting Pumpkins, they should bring along a companion with the Gardening Role that is as close to Level 10 as possible. When harvesting a bunch of Pumpkins at once, a companion with the Gardening Role will provide players with many bonus Pumpkins for free. Combine these two things, and players basically have a license to print Star Coins.
This makes it significantly easier for players to upgrade not only their house but also everything else in the Village that can be upgraded. So, if players are in need of some Star Coins, they should head to the Forgotten Lands as soon as they can.
Disney Dreamlight Valley is available now on Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
