Am I missing something with tea?
I came across the tea plant in the caravan trader and I'd thought I'd give it a go. It seems a bit useless to me. It takes practically all season to grow and then you only get two leaves. If you put them in a keg you get green tea which sells for a really low price and, on paper, doesn't seem to give much of a boost to energy. The best you can do is pickle it which doesn't seem to give you a great return on your 20 day growing time. Is there something about it which is going over my head?

Top 10 things about tea --

10. You can make the bushes. You do not have to buy them.

9. It gives you something to do with the wild seeds you accumulate from foraging.

8. It gives you something to do with all that fiber you collect.

7. Tea bushes are impermeable to both you and your animals, so you can use it to build fence that won't ever wear out.

6. It's like a tree in that it never needs watered.

5. A tea bush needs 20 days to reach maturity, but after that it gives you a tea leaf every day during the last week of every season, including winter if you grow it indoors.

4. It grows indoors in granny pots without being watered.

3. It gives you something to do during the winter with those idle kegs and jars.

2. Easy way to max friendship with Lewis by giving him green tea.

And the number 1 top thing about tea --

1. Caroline loves tea, really loves it, and Farmer Stanley loves sneaking into the lovely Caroline's sun room and meeting up with her for a "spot of tea" (Nudge, nudge, wink wink, don't tell Pierre).

If you need tea leaves you can get some for free the last week of any season in Caroline's sunroom (you need to have seen her 2 hearts cutscene).
