Tag description
Generation III
A Berry that is very valuable and rarely seen. It is very delicious.
Generation IV
This somewhat-rare Berry projects an image of luxury, so it is favored as a gift item.
A Hondew Berry will mature from a planted seed to a full-grown, fruit-bearing tree in 12 hours, with 3 hours per stage. A Hondew tree will yield 2-6 Berries.
Generation IV
A Hondew Berry will mature from a planted seed to a full-grown, fruit-bearing tree in 32 hours, with 8 hours per stage. A Hondew tree will yield 1-5 Berries.
Generation VI
A Hondew Berry will mature from a planted seed to a full-grown, fruit-bearing tree in 48 hours, with 8 hours per stage. A Hondew tree will yield 1-20 Berries. During its growth, watering the plant will add 0.5 Berries to the final harvest, weeding it will add 1.5, and removing a pest will add 3.
At 100% performance, this Berry will contribute 200 units of powder.
Poffin Cooking
At 100% performance, a Hondew Berry can produce a Level 12 (maybe higher) Dry-Bitter Poffin when cooking alone.
