Thanks *WisdomTree* for starting the thread. I was about to have a stab at it but I would have been way off the mark! Thank goodness you were quicker than me!
I will take part and try to finish ... lot of crops needed but I will throw all the SG and SSG I can at it and try to finish.
Good luck all!

 

Thanks WisdomTree for starting the thread! I don't like this event so I will be just farming and stocking my barn!
Good luck everyone and have fun waking those sleeping animals!

 

Thanks for starting our strategy thread

I'm in for the Balloon factory upgrades and the Crate O Neon stables. At least the crops are the same harvest time duration, but would like for the quantities needed to be the same too so when you are done growing crops, you are done with both. Just picky I guess

 

Balloon Factory Upgrades - not needed?

OK, lots of crops, over (edit 11.120 not 15000, no need to me that much bahama-crops, using some PW too to wake up animals) and not so lot of SG in my inventory...

 

Yes, I need them BUT when I don't like a game and don't think it is fun, I just sit it out and will wait for next event! Good luck I hope you reach your goals.

 

Thanks @*WisdomTree* Your charts always makes event requirements so easy to see!

In case anyone was wondering, drops from "farm land" = main farm; no drops from green meadow or magical glade. I was wondering about this because event crops are on "main farm" and drops on "farm land" (and rainforest). So, I thought we might get drops from all 3 main farm lands - no such luck. I hope drop rates are good for main farm and rainforest!

 

Not a near, not even every small plot Amarath gives a drop. I have 176 plots and 18 trees - only 170 drops from main field... (and some old trick, I wait 1,5 minutes before using harvester... no help)

 

Moved my howies from the green meadow to the rainforest yesterday.

I'm in on the usual farms, plus my baby farms are going to try doing a little of this one, too. I'm nuts. I'm sure of that. Because in real life, I'm sewing like a mad woman. I'll have to set alarms to remind myself to harvest crops. Show in Lewistown this coming Saturday. Likely crummy internet so not going to be able to farm the entire day Saturday. Hoping the snow lets up and it's not too bad to travel.

Wondering if our Finnish friends are having winter (snow), too?

Okay, strategy:

For my farms, I'm NOT growing Kenaf for the wakey wakey sacks of fruit. All my farms have plenty of power feed, so I've decided to use a little of it and skip growing kenaf and milling the sacks of fruit. Planted pumpkin yesterday on all participating farms. Will continue growing pumpkin on the other 2 mainland fields.

DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE END to do the chores. The last few chores take quite a bit of time. Set a timer on your computer or your phone to remember to come back and finish the task.

 

I had 432 drops. So more than half way. Doing some marketing in pumpkins & bananas

 

Am I wrong you need to do the third animal an get cloud row. The rest you can leave alone if you want.

 

I might be being a bit dense but my Chicken seems to want more feeding to get past level one than it shows. I couldn't get past level one so I fed it some more crops and now I have filled up the whole row and still can't move to level two - is it me? Am I missing something?

 

illy the chicken requirements are more than the others. You need to feed it twice with event crops, once with the drops and once with the pumpkins to finish the first level. So it takes more event crops and more waking ups.

Also see if level 1 is highlighted. Only then you will be able to click finish. Sometime we might have clicked level 2 or 3 or 4, in that case the finish button would be greyed out.

 

Thanks, One-Two. My top row (crops) is complete, can't feed it any more crops - that makes 5 lots!

Can you tell me how to do a screen shot so I can show you what I mean?

 

Do you also have one purple dot on second row (from Pruning, in the middle with shears) and one green dot on bottom row(from Harvesting, right with pumpkins). In level 4 you'll need all those 5 blue dots from Seedings.

Here is instructions for screen shot https://board-en.farmerama.com/threads/screenshots.7285/

 

PC - On your top rightside of the keyboard you will have a key with PrintScreen. Press it, the screen shot will be copied. You can paste it in paint and save.
Laptop - Fn key + PrintScreen...

or

Better use Snipper Tool,
Seach for Snipper tool, click on it and round the screen you want to take screen shot.


Upload online. From there copy it here.

shooger.sweet has answered your querry. It seems you forgot to wake up your chicken before finishing. You have to wake it up.

 

I actually managed to do a screen shot but couldn't work out how to paste it into the thread!

Thank you One-Two and -Päärynä11 for your help - somehow I didn't see the "Finish" even though I fed that pesky Chicken three more times than necessary! All is well now. Finished and am now on Level 2 - and not much needed to finish that one now! Always a bright side!

Onwards and upwards!

 

You have to upload the picture to any online website. From there copy it here. There are several sites that hosts picture for free.

 

Thanks One-Two. I used to have a site I used but I don't think it is going any more. Problems all solved so will learn new tricks when I need to in the future! Perhaps you might see my picture on the next event like this one!

 

illy1996 - I use postimages.org when I add pictures to the Baha List. It is free.

I'm done with this event thanks to SG/SSG during farmwheel spin for 24 hours. Back to normal farming
