Add a way to manually harvest a crop for its seed

Player requests a way to manually harvest a crop for its seed.

Need to make sure this won't be exploited/abused by players. It concerns me that another player could come along and rip up another player's farm.

I also want to make sure players don't have a way to get infinite seeds by simply planting, getting the seed, and hoping the RNG is nice enough to drop a second seed.

Hmm. That is a pickle (a pickle seed?).

I'm not so concerned about players destroying each others farms as much as players getting infinite seeds. Not sure i wanna change this just yet...

Getting infinite seeds from farming is sort of how we farm IRL, though :V

You plant the crop, you harvest the crop. If you need more seeds, you start harvesting the crop heavier or start splicing it to make clones.

Plus you obviously have to wait until the crop is fully grown anyway, so there'd be no way to exploit this in quick manners.

Yeah after thinking about it I'm no longer on the fence. I think if we shorten the distance on the shovel and make it the way to remove a plant and recover the seeds it should be ok.
