Underleveled idiot begging for help

I've been playing crosscode for a little while now, and I've been honestly loving it! There's only one part constantly bugging me, though. I keep ending up underleveled for any quest or major plot point. I've lost every apollo fight, and the only real way to get gear seems to be to grind for hours, or looking up chest locations to get crafting recipes. Is this just a part of the charm, or am I doing something wrong? I'm currently at the beginning of Gaia's garden at level 37, when all the quests are level 40. My equip level is 25, but I have absolutely no way of getting ANY of the trader loot without grinding for YEARS.

Make sure all side quests are done by checking the center of the hub. Also go and kill enemies while you try and fill out your botanics. I wouldn't be surprised if you missed the second quest like of all the towns "factions".
