'''Nectar''' ({{j|大地のエキスを|Daichi no ekisu o}}, lit.: "Earth extract") is | '''Nectar''' ({{j|大地のエキスを|Daichi no ekisu o}}, lit.: "Earth extract") is a substance that turns [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] from leaf or bud [[Maturity|stages]] directly into the flower stage, which is faster. It comes in the form of large drops of yellow liquid that multiple Pikmin can drink. [[Swarming Sheargrub]]s can also drink nectar, and will grow bigger if they do. | ||

Any leaf or bud Pikmin that pass by a drop of nectar on the ground will crouch down and begin to slurp it for roughly two seconds, regardless of whether it is idle or has been [[swarm|directed]] to it. At the end of the slurp, it will jump up and the leaf or bud on its head will turn into a flower. | |||
In | In {{p1}} and {{p2}}, a single drop of nectar can be shared by any number of Pikmin, but as soon as one Pikmin starts to drink it, the drop will shrink until it disappears when the first Pikmin is done. This means that only Pikmin which start drinking the nectar within this time window will be flowered. The time window is quite strict in ''Pikmin'', but lasts longer in ''Pikmin 2''. The most effective way to get a large number of Pikmin drinking the same nectar drop is by [[swarm]]ing them in a tight group. | ||
In | In {{p3}}, a single drop of nectar can flower 10 Pikmin. When a single Pikmin drinks from a drop of nectar, it will drink one tenth of the drop. Thus it is not possible for an entire large squad to be flowered from a single drop, but is it also not possible to waste a drop on a single Pikmin. | ||

Nectar makes an appearance in ''[[Nintendo Land]]'''s attraction ''[[Pikmin Adventure]]''. Nectar is a common item that can be found inside "?" blocks, and appears as leftovers from destroyed enemies. Every three blobs, a player will level up. It takes level 5 to get a bud, and level 10 to get a flower. Players will also drop a few drops of nectar when hurt. | Nectar makes an appearance in ''[[Nintendo Land]]'''s attraction ''[[Pikmin Adventure]]''.
