After venturing out into Grounded 2’s open world, you’ll discover resources like plant fibers, sap, and pebbles. Early on, you’ll learn about the existence of an Omni-Tool and its upgrade options, including a shovel attachment that requires grass seeds.
Do you get grass seeds from the ground? Do you use your hands to dig them up, or are they lying around somewhere? That’s what we’re here to discover. Here’s exactly where to find grass seeds in Grounded 2.
Where to find Grass Seeds in Grounded 2
You can find grass seeds by breaking grass flowers around the map. They appear as tall, upright plants with thin stalks and seeds emerging from the top. You can find these anywhere, with the earliest example being right outside of the Snackbar Ranger Outpost.

Breaking grass flowers requires unlocking your Omni-Tool through the main story. Your Omni-Axe upgrade will already be available by default, so you won’t have to worry about any subsequent upgrades for now. Once you pick up the tool, find one of these flowers and chop it. A grass seed will drop to the ground, allowing you to pick it up and use it later.
How to use Grass Seeds in Grounded 2
The main purpose of grass seeds early on is to unlock the shovel function of your Omni-Tool. You’ll need the following resources for this upgrade:
- Science (350)
- Grass Seeds (1)
- Sprig (2)
Aside from the grass seeds, it’s a relatively simple recipe that you’re intended to unlock early on. That way, you can uncover burrowing grubs and larvae for extra resources and reveal the Omni-Shovel’s second tier.

Another option is to use grass seeds to make Green Machine once you unlock and build a smoothie station. Green Machine is a beverage that instantly heals you and gives faster stamina regen rates. Making it requires building a smoothie station, which you can place after collecting the following resources:
- Acorn Top (1)
- Sprig (4)
- Grub Sludge (5)
Once you have every material, you can build the station, letting you use excess grass seeds to make some Green Machine as an early-game healing and stamina potion. Combining this with different smoothie bases can make its effects more powerful, especially after you unlock additional drink options that synergize well with its buffs.
