maybe a spell that makes a planted tree not become stunted! More druidic than that, i dunnow!
Maybe also a spell to increase ql in pepper/grapes/hops, i have a couple grapes planted some months ago, never got an increase in ql, still @ 14.4.

You need to replant grapes to increase their Q.

Here's a relevant thread: Grape and Hop Gain
“We still, alas, cannot forestall it-
This dreadful ailment's heavy toll;
The spleen is what the English call it,
We call it simply, Russian soul.”

An idea to consider: Tedium, a Feature.

yep, i understood that i had to replant or maybe grind www to get better seeds, but hey, we are speaking about druidic spells, so why not add something like that? may just fix with a cool thing the issue, i think

I agree that it could be more fun.

A tree being 'stunted' should either simply grow way slower, or we need a way to remove the effect.

As it is the mechanic is not fun and should be removed if the other options are to much work.

In fact, i believe that a good game design rule is: any bad effect should last only for some time or be reversible.

Yeah! Like wretched gore. Lasts for 68 RL days.
And I'm not kidding. It was frustrating, but seeing like your crippled, wounded character recovers slowly over time and returns back to its former glory was... immersing.
