Unfortunately, despite his impressive magical abilities, the main character Hogwarts legacy cannot learn a spell on their own, a teacher will be needed to help with this. In this case, Professor Chesnoke will help you master the spell, but first she will require you to complete several tasks. As you would expect from a teacher of herbology at Hogwarts, they are related to the cultivation and use of magical plants.
