Being able to find Grass Seeds in Grounded 2 is important pretty early on, as you'll need the seeds to buy the Shovel upgrade as your very first Grounded 2 Omni-Tool upgrade. After that point, Grass Seeds don't play a huge factor in the game, with Grounded 2 acorns likley to be your next sticking point as a resource.

However, this grass seed bottleneck can clearly throw people, especially as it's easy to cut down lots of grass and get nothing in terms of seeds for crafting. To help you find what you're looking for, I've got the location of Grass Seeds in Grounded 2, and how you can retrieve them for that all important Omni-Shovel upgrade.

Grass Seeds in Grounded 2 are found at the top of Grass Flowers that need to be cut down. From ground level it can be difficult to tell flowers from regular grass, so you need to look up for the telltale seed clusters at the top, as shown in the image above.

Once you've identified a plant, go up to it and it should be referred to as a Grass Flower in the text that pops up. Cut it down and when the cluster hits the ground, there will be a chance for it to drop grass seeds, that you can then pick up!

How to use Grass Seeds in Grounded 2

As mentioned previously, grass seeds have very limited functionality in Grounded 2 at time of writing (although that could change as the Grounded 2 roadmap progresses). By far the most important thing they do is help you build the Shovel upgrade for your Omni-Tool. For this, you need to find those grass seeds and then bring all of these resources to any Ominent Terminal:

  • 350x Science
  • 1x Grass Seed
  • 2x Sprig

Exchange these at the terminal and you'll get the level 1 Omni-Shovel. You can use this for a few things, the main one being digging up moving dirt to reveal Grubs that you can kill for their hide. Later on you'll unlock higher tiers of Shovel that you can use to dig up tougher substances, like Chewing Gum.
