Best Gardening XP
All crops give 4 exp per slot per day of growth. Regrowing crops give exp based on total grow time divided by number of harvests on each harvest. So every crop earns the same per tile: 4 XP a tile every Palia day (one real hour). A full 81-tile garden grows 324 XP an hour, or 389 with a +20% focus bonus: level 1 to 25 in about 239 hours of growing.

Questions
What is the fastest way to level Gardening in Palia?
Every crop gives the same Gardening XP per tile per day (4 XP a tile for each Palia day it grows, and a Palia day is one real hour), so the fastest way is simply a garden that's full and watered every day. 81 tiles make 324 XP an hour before focus.
How much XP do you need for level 25 Gardening?
92,720 XP from level 1. Level 1 → 2 takes 240 XP, rising to 3,720 for 8 → 9, and every level after that takes 5,000.
How much XP is level 100 Gardening?
467,720 XP from level 1, for the Grandmaster Gardner accomplishment.
Does focus give more XP?
When utilizing Skills, the current Focus Bonus is added onto the total EXP gain. This can be represented with EXP + Focus Bonus%. For example, if a new player starting with a 20% Focus Bonus made Grilled Meat, which has a base EXP of 20, they would earn a total of 24 EXP. A player with a 100% Focus Bonus would earn 40 EXP from the same dish.
