Kamu’s Request in Crimson Desert is a deceptively simple side quest that teaches you the basics of farming while quietly testing your patience and attention to detail. While the task itself revolves around planting and harvesting, timing, correct interaction, and bug awareness are what truly determine whether you complete it smoothly or get stuck.

Location of Kamu’s seed plot and quest
The quest takes place near Kamu’s location near Unicorn Cliffs in Hernand, where you will notice pre-prepared farming patches. These are not just decorative elements; they are the only valid spots where planting will count toward quest progression. If you try planting elsewhere, the game may not register your actions, which can lead to confusion or delays.
How to complete Kamu’s Request in Crimson Desert
This quest flows through a clear cycle: obtain seeds, plant them correctly, wait for growth, troubleshoot if necessary, and harvest the final produce. Following the process carefully ensures you avoid the most common pitfalls.
Step 1
Begin by speaking with Kamu and accessing his shop or dialogue options to obtain seeds. You can choose between apple or grape seeds, and you will also receive a small number of apples for free to initiate the quest. Make sure the seeds are actually in your inventory before proceeding.
Step 2
Head to the nearby pre-dug planting holes and prepare to plant your seeds. Open your inventory and equip the seeds explicitly, as simply having them is not enough.
Step 3
Position yourself next to a hole and hold the interaction button (X) until the planting animation completes. Repeat this carefully for every available slot to ensure full progression.
Step 3
Once all seeds are planted, the waiting phase begins. The trees require approximately three in-game days to fully grow, and during this time, nothing visually significant may happen at first. You are free to explore other activities, but returning too early may give the impression that the quest is not working.
Step 4
After sufficient time has passed, return to the planting area and check for tree growth. If the trees have appeared, you can proceed normally. However, if nothing has changed despite waiting long enough, you are likely encountering the known growth bug.
Step 5
To fix the bug, manually save your game, exit to the main menu, and reload your save file. This refreshes the quest state, and in most cases, the trees will instantly appear once you re-enter the game world. This workaround is currently the most reliable fix.
Step 6
With the trees fully grown, approach them and harvest the fruit through interaction. Ensure you collect all available produce, as partial harvesting may prevent quest completion.
Step 7
Return to Kamu with the harvested fruit and initiate dialogue to complete the request. Once submitted, you will receive your rewards and successfully finish the quest.

Using seed plots to farm food items
Kamu’s Request is more than just a basic fetch-and-grow task—it introduces a system that can become valuable later in your journey. By completing it, you learn how crop timing works, how to interact with farming spots, and how to manage delayed outcomes effectively.
It also prepares you for future mechanics where waiting, resource cycles, and environmental interaction play a bigger role. Understanding how to troubleshoot issues like the growth bug early on helps you avoid frustration in more complex quests later.
