Since Mandrakes are extremely fast creatures and will keep their distance from the player even if they follow them, it is recommended to only pick them during the day if it is the item the player wants.

The Loot Stash has a chance to yield a dead Mandrake, thus making them renewable since the Loot Stash respawns every Winter. If eaten in Don't Starve Together (DST), Mandrakes will put all players in the nearby area to sleep. Mandrakes also can be bought in 'The Sty' Oddities Emporium for 50 Oincs, which makes them renewable. In the Hamlet DLC, Mandrakes can be found in the Deep Rainforest Biome near Mandrake Hills.

Must have merged worlds using the Seaworthy or Skyworthy. They are renewable by using a Trawl Net to obtain a Pan Flute, then using a Deconstruction Staff to dismantle it. In the Shipwrecked DLC, Mandrakes can be found in the Meadow Biome. Once it becomes daytime, the mandrake will root itself back into the ground, where the player can then pick the mandrake and add it to their inventory. If the Mandrake is attacked, they will run away from the player indefinitely. Like Pigs, they will back away when the player gets too close. When picked during dusk or night, rooted Mandrakes will follow the player (through Wormholes as well), hopping around and making a lot of noise. Gobblers and Pengulls will eat Mandrakes that are still planted in the ground, putting all nearby Mobs to sleep (except the player).

Pigs will also produce Manure (as they would with other Vegetable) if a Mandrake is eaten. Raw Mandrakes will not put the player to sleep. Pigs, Gobblers, and Pengulls will eat Cooked Mandrakes left on the ground, putting themselves and all nearby Mobs to sleep until the start of the next day (no matter what time it is). Eating Mandrake Soup restores 100 Health, 150 Hunger, and 5 Sanity, but does not put the player to sleep. Eating a Cooked Mandrake restores 100 Health and 150 Hunger, as well as putting the player and all nearby Mobs to sleep (for exactly one day). Raw Mandrakes heal 60 Health and 75 Hunger when eaten, and put all nearby Mobs to sleep (until the next cycle of the day from dusk until night, from night until daytime, from daytime until dusk).Ĭooking a Mandrake will also put the player to sleep (until the next cycle of the day), as well as putting all nearby Mobs to sleep.
