Blueberry

Blueberries (known as oval-leaved blueberries in the survival guide) are a food & hydration item. Blueberries and blackberries are the only collectible non-poisonous types of berries. They were added in update v0.01 and made collectable in update v0.12 in The Forest.

Gameplay
Blueberries can be collected from blueberry bushes, which can be found all through the island. They are one of the most useful food items as they provide hydration, fullness, and energy. They only provide 1 calorie each. They do not spoil, making them useful for exploring deep into the caves.

After collecting or eating blueberries, the player has a chance of receiving blueberry seeds, which can be planted in a garden. Blueberries cannot be planted in the wall planter as the bushes are too large to fit. The hydration effect from blackberries and blueberries is halved in hard survival mode.

With a pouch, you can collect blueberries from blueberry bushes, but you can only carry 30 blueberries at a time.

When gathering blueberries from wild sources the wild blueberry bushes may not respawn blueberries unless you destroy the bush; in which case the bush itself respawns whenever you load your game with new blueberries on it.
