Potato cacti can be harvested from potato cacti grown within a cactus patch. A fully grown potato cactus can grow up to three potato cacti at a time. Each potato cactus, when picked, gives 92 Farming experience. Once all three potato cacti have been picked, the cactus will slowly produce more potato cacti. However, the potato cacti may be picked individually provided that at least one appears on the bush.
The yield of potato cacti increases from 3 to 6 with the completion of the hard Desert achievements
