Wheat Seeds

It weighs almost nothing and stacks to 9,999, so there is no reason not to carry a full stack.
Where to Find Wheat Seeds
4 Pals drop Wheat Seeds when defeated or captured, which is usually the faster route if you are already out hunting — the drop list below is sorted by how reliably each one gives it up.
If you would rather just buy it, the cheapest seller is Caravan Shop at 20 Gold, and 2 other shops stock it too.
The hands-off supply the shop list misses is a Ranch. Vaelet rolls a seed pool of six types when stationed there, and Wheat Seeds carry 9 of the 45 total weight — 20% of every drop, second only to tomato at 22.2%, and ahead of potato, carrot, onion and lettuce. The per-drop count is the part that scales: a base-rank Vaelet hands over 1-2 at a time, and the top of the table pays 4-11 on the same 20% roll. Vaelet is also the only Grass Pal on the ranch list that produces seeds at all, so there is no substitute to breed toward.

Using Wheat Seeds Well
Three seeds is the entire price of admission. The Wheat Plantation sits at technology level 15 for 2 points, and building one costs 15 Wood, 15 Stone and 3 Wheat Seeds — paid once, at construction. The plot then cycles on its own and never asks for seeds again, which is why there is no reason to hoard a stack of these. Each cycle runs 270 seconds of growth and pays out 10 Wheat, with the seeding, watering and harvest stages each carrying 7,500 work, so a plot only runs unattended if the Pals you have stationed cover Planting, Watering and Gathering between them.
What the wheat is actually for sits two steps downstream. The Mill unlocks at the same technology level 15 and grinds 3 Wheat into 1 Flour, so one plantation harvest of 10 clears 3 Flour with a remainder. Cake then wants 5 Flour — 15 Wheat, or roughly two full harvest cycles — alongside 8 Berries, 7 Milk, 8 Eggs and 2 Honey. Since Cake is what the Breeding Farm consumes, a wheat plot is the first link in the breeding chain, and the 200,000 work on the Cake recipe means the flour is rarely the part you end up waiting on.
Do not farm the droppers for these. Every merchant that stocks them sells at 20 Gold, which puts a Wheat Plantation's full seed cost at 60 Gold — less than a single Wheat is worth at 70 Gold once the plot starts producing. The 100% drop rates on Souffline, Lifmunk, Herbil and Hangyu are worth collecting only as a by-product of fights you were already taking; deliberately hunting them to skip a 60-Gold purchase is the slower path by a wide margin. Buy three, build the plot, and put a Vaelet on a Ranch if you want a standing seed supply for the other five crops as well.
