He will say that he is having a problem growing a vine, and needs your help, by talking to Wizard Cromperty about a device that will help with preserving the root's life. 2. Talk to Wizard Cromperty in the northeast corner of Ardoughne. He needs some help with the R.P.D.T at the Ardoughne Docks. They will say a package cannot be delivered because the label is ruined and they cannot read it. You'll be allowed to open the package, so open it to find a wizard's sliced hand! Report to Cromperty immediately. 3. Upon returning to him, he will say that his specialist equipment you'll need is broken by the R.P.D.T, again and he needs a pot lid. Go make him one, then report back to him.NOTE: You cannot make the pot lid beforehand, you must make it after he instructs you to. 4.Cromperty says you'll need to see Garth in Karamja for supplies. Garth is at the Fruit tree patch, near the boat to Ardoughne. 5. Garth says you can cut the sapling, but you need the appropiate gear. Get your combat gear, spade, secaturs, supercompost, and machete, and head out of Shilo and head toward the nature altar, then go southeast of there, along the north wall, until you see a vine you can climb. 6. Complete the maze until you find a spot where you can dig near the roots. Dig and try to set it successfully. When you succeed, use the pot with the lid on the plant and you will seal it. Teleport out and return to Horacio. MAZE SOLUTION HERE, BY ME.
