To do all the introductory tutorial quests you're gonna need a lot of inventory space (or just skip obtaining the items). You can buy and sell junk items directly to the Moogle as well.
Zoning in you get a CS that starts the quest Full Fields. Just check the Garden Furrow and choose to harvest its items, then speak to the moogle for a CS to finish the quest. Automatically begins the next quest: Green Groves. Check the Arboreal Grove and choose to prune the trees then speak to the Moogle for a cs and flagging the next quest: Mining Missive. Check the Mineral Vein and choose to mine it for its items and then return to the Mog. Next "quest" Pond Probing just check the Pond Dredger and choose to raise the net for its items, then speak to the mog. CS starts the quest Coastal Chaos: check the Coastal Fishing Next and choose to raise the net for its items. CS finishes the quest and rewards you with herb seeds. For the next quest Seed Sowing trade the herb seeds to the Garden Furrow and choose to plant them. Speak to the moogle to finish and flag the next quest Flotsam Finding. Go check the Flotsam target and choose to pick it up then check the moogle. Finally he rewards you with a garden worm, grove worm, vial of stone serum, sardine sphere, and a ponze of sardine chum.
Furrow specifies it will take 8 hours earth time for herb seeds to grow and that it can be harvested 3 times.
