A gardening spray can is a water container used in farming.

Water storage

The gardening spray can hold up to 10 units of water.

Prior to build 41, it held 40 units of water – equal to the watering can, which has the highest water capacity in the game.

Farming

Main article: Farming

Pesticides

A gardening spray can is required to make pesticides.

Mildew Spray

Mildew causes plants to mature slower. Affected plants can be treated with mildew spray to counteract this. With a gardening spray can and milk (fresh or rotten) in the main inventory, right-click on either item to show the option to "Create Mildew Cure".

Insecticide Spray

Pest flies cause a growing plant to consume more water; affected plants will need considerably more water and attention. This can be cured by making an insecticide spray by placing a gardening spray can, five cigarettes and three units of water in your main inventory; right-click on an ingredient to show the option "Create Flies Cure".

Crafting

Making pesticides

Either the gardening trait or the farmer occupation is required to craft these items.
