Where To Find Onions In Once Human

Unfortunately, like most other vegetables in the game, Onions can't be found in the wild and you can only grow them on your farm. At the time of writing, there is only one vendor in Once Human who sells Onion Seeds: Emma Potter. To find her, you need to visit the Tall Grass Inn (recommended level 35) situated in the eastern part of the Chalk Peak region.

Once there, look for a cliff past the Motel sign and climb all the way to the top. Here, you can see a building next to a Sandwich shop. Enter it and inside you’ll find Emma, waiting to interact with your character.

You can purchase onion seeds for 1,000 Energy Links in Once Human. However, there's a catch: these seeds have a weekly purchase limit, meaning you can only buy three seeds at a time. Here is a list of all the products that Emma sells at her shop:

The only other way of getting onion seeds is by exploring the different regions in Once Human. While not guaranteed, you might discover onion seeds in hidden chests or as random drops during your adventures.

Once you've purchased the onion seeds, plant them in your territory’s Planter Box to grow your own onions. With a bit of luck, one of these onions might transform into the Grumpy Bulb Deviant. There’s no definite timeline for this deviation to occur, but the wait is undoubtedly worthwhile.

The Grumpy Bulb Deviant has a unique ability to sow discord among enemies, causing them to fight each other. This can give you a strategic advantage in combat by reducing the number of enemies targeting you and increasing your chances of survival.

Try to plant as many Onions as you can to increase your chances of securing the Grumpy Bulb Deviant.
