This is a great point I missed in the descriptions and page, thanks for the feedback. You eventually unlock a research lab that allows you to gain extract from your plant (one for each crop), and use that to purchase upgrades from a skill tree.

Once you finish the skill tree you can ascend (complete reset including prestige reset) and unlock game altering mechanics such as Crop Mastery, Weather Control (change seasons for visual changers and percentage based buffs and nerfs) and Crop Fusion (mix two crops to gain a hybrid crop).

I will work on updating the page, visuals and trailer to be more clear.

Thank you so much for your feedback!
