Farming...

So.. Shouldnt every tile from farming give you at least one seed so you can replant it next season? I started my fortress with 50 plump helmets and dont even have enough to plant 5 squares... even a basic farmer should get enough seeds for next season?

You get the seeds back by brewing/eating the plump helmets. You don't get them if you cook them.

You can turn off cooking for Plump helmets by pressing z, scrolling to kitchen, and disabling the cook option for Plump helmets and plump helmet spawn.

you can also get seeds after milling plants like cave wheat etc making them a great choice for high efficiency farming.
