How Do You Get Mandrake Seeds in Hades 2?

You can find Mandrake by digging up the ground around the Rift of Thessaly using a shovel. It’s a fairly common method for collecting seed-type materials.

Specifically, you’ll want to grab the Silver Shovel. Once you enter the Rift of Thessaly, you can then use this tool to interact with Digging Spots scattered across the map. You get one Mandrake Seed per Digging Spot. You can get more than one from a Digging Spot if you upgrade your Silver Shovel.

Once you have the Mandrake Seeds, you need to plant them at the soil plots back in the Crossroads. After 17 in-game timer hours, they will grow into Mandrake Roots, which can be harvested for use in various recipes.
