Dried Barrel Cactus Fruit

 is a world object

Gameplay
The seeds come in Seed Packages and are used by the biological research station during the quest Field Research to clone and plant seeds in The Sink. The Barrel cactus will be grown in the Sink three in-game days after giving the seeds to the biological research station.

The dried seeds are in three separate packs and can be collected in any order during the quest. The seed packages are activators and aren't added as seeds to the player's inventory. Instead, they are converted into dried versions of 11 miscellaneous items in total when activated.

Locations
The pack of dried seeds sits near a fountain northeast of the Signal Hills transmitter and is guarded by a few spore plants along with a unique spore plant, Dionaea Muscipula.
