Tea Solves Everything - Strategy

As I already have fruit cake and white innocence running, I use the spare plots with Comfort Fields and Roses to increase my drops whilst I build up my junks which should take care of themselves; it is the drops which may be a problem. Of course I could end up with a lot more than I need but I will take that chance.

 

So England had two Euro exits in one week. Remarkable.
Iced tea, anyone. Tea from Zimbabwe, Ice from Iceland...

Drops not looking good for me so far...

 

Now if that was iced coffee Banjoman ...I would join you ... But I need the coffee to keep my eyes open with the late nights that events give us

 

About 6 hours after the start of this event I got
1750 tea leaves
155 tea bags

For preparation I had long time crops overnight and the glade filled with pens/workshops. Initial drop: 115 tea bags.

Guess the event can be done with little effort BUT you'll need to use long term crops/pens/workshops to get enough drops.

So I'll continue with just ONE field (1x1) with tea leaves, comfort fields overnight.
One field will be long time crops (10hrs +), glade keeps its pens/workshops (all 14hrs +).

Good luck everyone. Keep farming with a smile!

 

I got a very late start on this one. I have 81 Tea Bags and 90 Tea leaves. I'll muddle along as far as I can and be happy about it.

 

I think I'm going to sit this one out too I was going to go for it so I could get the secret stall and tree but you only get 1 of each and it really doesn't seem worth going for now owell ill just keep stocking up on my animals for the neon breeding that will be coming up soon GOOD LUCK to everyone going for it

 

Long time since I have done an event for the stars. Half way with the crops and 318 teabags. Now headed off to a nice holiday so long time crops and animals suit me just fine. I will be here for Mir's party and then I will leave you in peace. Enjoy while it last!

Good luck all!

 

Have not counted a thing yet, with MM so close to this event this one lost out, late start, no real effort applied. I will be looking at the outcome with some interest as to lack of everything applied.
MM will win every time, now to see how bad I pay for that vow.

 

Drops seem to be fine. I'm still under 12 hours running and have 190 Tea Bags. The only "prep" I did was roses on all my fields. So, not much prep to say the least, but the drops for the Tea Crops themselves have been pretty consisted 10-15 per field every 4 hours. Crops should be done by morning and I'll switch to longer crops for better drops to finish of the event, or I may even farm some chickens.

 

when I saw the un-edit FAQ , I plan my island to boost up my drop, Then I don't go to forum
until yesterday, event start which I find I don't get any drop from island.
This lessen teach you.
Always try to come forum, check FAQ, get uodate information.
If I know island is excluded from event drops, I will not let my GM with half animals

 

I have learned a lesson or two from some recent events where, even at my "veteran" farmer status, I managed to miss finishing events due to lack of drops. So, contrary to my usual lackadaisical "plant event crops till done" approach, I planted Roses and Red Poppies overnight. My drop rate is looking pretty good: 237 on this farm and 226 on Chevrefeuille. I'm happy with that.

Even baby farm has 139 - despite no trophy or Howie (though the other farms never move the Howies from the Glades, far too much thinking involved!) and a slight error on applying mulch to island trees before I remembered that they don't give drops so I didn't have enough to mulch the Glade trees! They will be ready when I come home from work so that might boost the 24 hour figure a little.

I don't think this will be that easy but with a little effort, I think I can do it. Wouldn't even consider it if I didn't have the harvester functions - have done too many events recently virtually all by hand. This event doesn't really have the prizes for that commitment!

Party, did someone say party? *Rushes off to dust off Chocolate Fountain and check out party wardrobe!*

 

Another cloud row to win EP ..would be nice if we were given a basic cloud row ...to put some of the things from our inventory on
Have got 6 pages of them that haven't been used for years always thought that was one of the reasons for having the clouds.. I don't make enough BBs to buy one...that is saved for machinery

 

Hi guys, thanks for the drops so far, but I'm not playing this event so please send your drops to someone who needs them . Thank you though and good luck with the event! .

 

Finished my crops this morning Now to get all those drops Good Luck everyone doing the event!!

 

Ι am almost over with crops but I still need a lot of drops! The +1 crop really helped

 

Done growing crops on both farms and now have out looooong crops to be ready tomorrow morning. I'm on level 4 of the event. Nice time to top off inventory and BW is working on No Rest on the Farm quest so accomplishing a couple goals at the same time.

 

Big farm has finished crops and is now dealing with drops - great to stock up on long crops I'm short on. Baby farm is happily playing in poop. The great thing about 2 markets is noticing the difference in price; TCRooster's market has 0 offers of poop and I can sell for a maximum of 60cc earlier, but TCbaby is happily selling at 180cc and there's over 100 offers. TCRooster would like to dump her market in favour of a more reasonable one!

 

Thinking it will be tight on ming, have to work on drop worthy things... like opening them refinement widows so much to do! I hear ya TCbaby, I want to swap markets with my farms, ming does not have the CC's to get them goodies and keltic has too many in the same level with goodies.... grass always greener......

 

Last round of event crops growing Never would have believed I could finish growing an event crop 2/3's into day 2 of event
I got a great jump at start of event with +1 crop bonus So will take full advantage of CAC, ZAB & +1 Veg CR bonus before returning farm to trees, animal pens & workshops which should give better drops Have milled 95 Earl Greys, so just have to have some patience...the drops will come

 

Patience - what's that?
