Pumpkin

The Pumpkin in Rust is an essential food item known for its high nutritional value. Consuming a Pumpkin replenishes a significant amount of calories and hydration, while also providing a health boost, making it superior to many other foods in the game. Notably, Pumpkins can also be used as a makeshift headgear, adding a fun and practical twist to their utility.

When eaten with high durability, Pumpkins yield pumpkin seeds, which can be planted to grow more Pumpkins, ensuring a renewable food source. Each fully-grown plant offers up to three harvests, resulting in an abundance of food from just a single seed. This makes Pumpkins an exceptionally efficient crop for players looking to sustain themselves and thrive in the game.

Pumpkins are commonly found alongside streams, making these locations a strategic starting point for players wanting to secure a steady food supply early on. The easy cultivation and substantial returns from Pumpkins make them an indispensable resource for both novice and experienced survivors in the world of Rust.
