While giant crops may seem like a rare or random occurrence, there is an exact science for growing them in Rune Factory 4 Special. You don't need to have the best farming tools in the game, or do any hard missions. Simply follow these steps to create giant crops:

  • Make 2x2 squares and plant the same type of crop in each of them.
  • Use Giantizer on the crops and tend to them each day.
  • Once they are fully grown don't harvest them, they will need a few extra days in the ground to merge into a giant crop.

There are a few additional elements that can affect giant crop growth. High-quality soil is a big player in growing a giant crop, so make your square on parts of the field that have sz+. You should also only plant crops that are in season, as out-of-season crops have a much harder time growing.

I am a diehard fan of N64 era games and will forever feel betrayed that Megaman Legends didn't finish. Outside of gaming, I have spend my time collecting manga, collecting anime figures, and watching anime with my naked cat.
