    I thought it would be wise to get four bottles before doing this side quest, but it cracked me up when you couldn't pick up a 2nd bottle of the water from forest heaven.
    wolfman2000 3 Aug 2024 19:31
    So...is this actually missable? Is the intent to use one go at forest water?
    Campingcam 5 Aug 2024 23:52
    @wolfman2000 in case you never found clarification:

    The side quest requires you to do all 8 in one 20-min run. If you fail and run out of time, all the trees revert to withered and you must start over. So no this is not missable

    AlmightyXor edited this achievement's logic.

    You can use forest water multiple times without refilling, but it expires after 20 minutes, and the trees you've sprinkled don't stay healthy (it's explained as a magical link between them, but it's really just a game mechanic.)

    I don't think I've ever done this on Gamecube, so we'll see how it goes. (Wii U had the swift sail *and* increased the time limit to a full half-hour)

    oh, one other tip: If you ask the Great Deku Tree about the island koroks, he'll mark their locations on your sea chart so you don't have to memorize where each one is, just where on the island it is.

    For those struggling with this achievement, here's a pretty fool proof route I typically use in Wind Waker Randomizer runs to minimize sea travel. Please note you'll need the Ballad of Gales for it.

    Start @ Forbidden Woods & Get Forest Water
    Go East 1, Sapling 1 (Will need to go through cave on lower island)
    Ballad to Forbidden Woods
    Go Northwest 1, Sapling 2
    Ballad to Tower of Gods
    Go North 1, Sapling 3
    Ballad to Outset Island
    Go Northeast 1, Sapling 4
    Ballad to Greatfish, Sapling 5 (On Spiral Mountain)
    Go Southwest 1, Sapling 6
    Ballad to Tingle Island
    Go Northwest 1, Sapling 7
    Go North 1, Sapling 8

    Thanks for the route! I was able to get all the trees watered with 5:30 remaining, even with pretty bad sailing, and forgetting where the spiral mountain was on Greatfish Isle

    Not all heroes wear capes. Thanks @Darkcactus for the route, did it with 8 minutes remaining, you the GOAT.
