    Whilst I am growing my first 10 seeds with CAC, Fruit Cake and White Innocence, I always put Roses on Comfort fields which, with refinements and the CAC, FC and WI brings the time down to 32 minutes. I now have 326 drops and my 90 seeds are in 2x2 ( I was 3 hours late starting ) Tonight they will be in 424 no 1x1 plots. Trees still round the edges. Busy weekend ahead so I hope to get the crops done quickly.

    Hi Farmerumf, so you SG'd the comfort fields with roses too? I'm assuming you did since you said you had FC and WI on the roses if I'm understanding correctly. I can see how you'd get better results SG'ing the comfort field roses than the junks...

    And I think the drop rate is pretty darn good. We deserve it though and that's all I'm saying about that.

    Got 150 Santa Hats from Three Fields of Rose Buds. As Rose Buds is my highest Crop as Sells for good CC in the market, they are also needed for Team Building Day Quest. As they helped me get 150 Santa Hats so now only need 290 Santa Hats in the Next Four days.

    I have Nuked some Candy Cane Crops, to Build up Enough to get my Fields to be seeded as 1 x 1 Field I have completed the Learn and Grow Event so need to worry about Event Play Field I just Focus on Santa Secret Event.

    jollyfama65 - Yes that is how I got them down to 32 minutes! :D That is the only crop I have refinements on and I only use it for drops.

    Well done to those who got good drops. I expect we will have loads left over at the end of this event. :p

    Well, just 24 hours into this event and I have 3,031 Candy Canes, and replanted the 3 fields. Santa's Hats I have 262!:p
    I have used no refinements or comfort fields, but did use about 320 SG on initial 2x2's then when I had enough I
    switched back to 1x1's. I am hoping to do all of this event...if Santa's hats keep dropping on my farm! ;) Good Luck everyone!

    Interimsreport:
    steps 1 - 4 only diamonds are needed
    step 5 complete (CR is mine yeah)
    3 fields full with event crops.
    One more harvest tonight before setting out comfort fields with SG overnight.

    Drop rate seems to be fine for me.

    Good Luck everybody
