    I have all crops and enough for the sketchbooks. I now just need 150 markers plus 14 sketchbooks and the 70 markers for them. Growing long time crops to - hopefully - get the drops. I planted roses last night and got 75 markers so hoping this works again.

    will the drop rates decrease if i use the comfy fields instead of the normal? Just wondering because i am 200 markers short and I dont think I will get enough in time if i get 20 markers per harvest, i need a new game plan if that is the case!

    I think the drop rate will decrease suezoroc.
    I used comfort fields in the begging but now I changed them to 1x1.

    milled the last of sketch book, still need 150 markers, hopefully by end of tomorrow, monday morning the latest. i seem to always finish 24hrs before the end of an event. i do blitz event crops at the start because i do not want to overuse cac. like altuntino said, event crop does give poor drops. drops have been a lot better since i finished them and returned to normal farming.

    I still need 106 markers to complete, I'm not worried the drops will come. One question on the roses though is do you get larger drops without having any of the rose refinements? Last night I planted kohlrabi and onions and I got 20 and 23 drops respectively for the two fields.

    Need 2958 plants, 410 markers, 38 sketchbooks and 20 paint cans
    Markers and plants for sketchbooks included in totals.
    Not sure I am going to make this one only at level 47 with only 2 parts of glade and now three in baha.
    Using CAC on 1x1 I will get the plants but not sure on paint cans or markers.
    Will switch after this harvest to my highest level plant Radishes and hope for better drops

    sry frmrlife if i were you i would stop trying to finish. paint cans alone are next to impossible. very rare drop. i dont believe it can be gifted. markers will also be tough with 2.5 days left. first thing i did was check to make sure i had the paint cans and boards in stock before i even started or i would have skipped it. good luck.

    At the moment I still need about 3000 plants and about 200 markers. I expect to have the plants ready by tomorrow afternoon. I don't expect I'll have the markers than, but I have planted Artichoke (current longest mainland crop for me) on two fields and Bamboo (current longest baha crop) for overnight, so I should be able to get a nice amount tomorrow. Since I still have till Tuesday, I'll just plant long term crops once I've finished the last of the event crops. That should help me get enough drops, I hope :)

    I'll start the milling of the 25 sketchbooks tomorrow, since I've gotta work both monday and tuesday and I probably don't have enough time to mill the sketchbooks tuesday.

    I'm keeping my fingers crossed, but I'm optimistic. :)

    Good luck to everyone who still needs to complete the event (or your personal goals for this event).

    And remember: Have fun!

    I don't know if roses will give you better drops. Those refirements some have for roses they use it when they plant them in comfort fields so that's why the get more drops. I think they use Super Grow right ziggy66?

    I see thanks for the info. Not sure what one would use roses for anyway. I would rather plant some of the other long term crops I do have uses for. I think I'll be just fine without having to use CF's on this unless I simply want to.

    I do not use comfort fields. I have all my lands set at 2 x 2 as I find I get more drops than 1 x 1. I only use supergrow for the first planting of event crops, rarely at any other time. On the roses planting last night that gave me 75 markers I did not use water nor manure but these are part of the rose refinements I have.

    Have all the crops now thanks to comfy fields and managed to switch to 1x1 today. Carnations, begonia and ginger planted for overnight should give me the final drops I need to finish this one. Amazed I'm there since the drops on comfort fields have been awful for me - getting 12/13 on each of the playing fields. Fortunately started the event with a good drop and strawberries on comfort fields at one point yielded 22!

    Clashstrummer, roses are used in the Garden Expo FSQ. I don't have refinements, but they seemed a reasonable long-term crop, and I got 27-35 markers per field.

    P.S. They are also called for in the No Rest on the Farm FSQ.

    This morning I finished with the Event Crop, so before work I put in Long term crops in 1 x 1 plots, which I already harvested. Then I planted another long term crop in all fields to harvest in the morning. Now I only need 113 markers. I should finish well within a reasonable time frame. I am grateful that I had the opportunity to use Comfort Fields during my busy work week. It paid off well for me and allowed me the grace, not to panic. Opening the top rune was the best thing I ever did for my farm, since doing so..... I have yet to miss on the drops. Good Luck everyone and remember if you are in distress.... please refer to the SOS thread, and ask for help. The link was posted earlier in this thread.

    I need one more marker. I think the game likes to laugh at me and give me just one marker short just to annoy me. It's not the first time this has happened. Yes, I'll get it but, grrr, I wanted to be done for the night. -.-


    EDIT:
    Thanks to two wonderful farmers, I now have completed the event and row!
