    Yes, unfortunately at the moment, as far I know, it is only the one you can buy with cc's. I'm fairly certain I read yesterday that it would be available for 750 000cc for the next few weeks, until all items had been collected via coming events, but now it says it is only available until 28 March. I hope that it will become available again during the next event as my baby farm might not have enough cc by Tuesday to buy it... (I've already got the Candy Tree Surprise on that farm as well).

    Hail!! Hail!! I :inlove::inlove::inlove::inlove: me some stickers <3
    But... what ...wait... this is not good news... ... ...
    I say it all the time we should JUST GET them for participating but most of the time BP really makes us work for them. This event is no exception to get Ziegfried you have to do 8 tasks (ok not so so bad) but then look what hoops you have to jump through to get the Apeus Sticker they are really being REDICULOUS:( you have to complete 60 :mad:SIXTY:mad: tasks. :mad: #@!% *$#@
    Shaking My Head (I just had to spell that out, this time SMH just wouldn't do it) WOW

    PS Tree Harvest Note:
    Not sure if anyone already posted this or not
    (I Stopped reading when I got to the quoted sticker post)
    I seen where elimeno was asking about Suzy Super Grow on the trees and she was told that in fact it will not work to give an extra bloosom.

    Need 50 lettuce to get one sticker and 1 cows milk to get the other sticker .... they don't give a reward they are stuck in a book never be seen again ...what is the point of them ? Nothing as far as i can see ...ONLY wasting time in an event

    Cows milk has an EV of 465 cc's
    50 lettuce are selling for 1.249.00 in the market

    At least putting this at the end as the last step .. people would have the choice of getting it of not

    Currently sitting with 588 Sprout-A-Seed Potion after harvesting my overnight crop, with a total of 48 hours of the event expired and 96 hours remaining. As expected, I completed all of my crops within 36 hours of event start and my drops did take a hit from my manure farming. Today I'll be focusing on getting back to where I need with drops. I expect to end the day between 750-800 drops leaving me no more than 300 drops left. I predict that the additional drops will take no more than one additional day so my event should be completed by the end of Saturday. Given that there is a bonus for farming crops I will not go back to farming manure until after the Happy Harvest day has ended.

    Hope everyone is doing well.

    I just noticed I needed 1074 drops in total for it all, I got less than 400. So for the first time in a long long time, I won't be even close to finish an event. Not even if I got 20 drops from the sos thread would I be close. Need to give this some serious thought, shall I cut the loss now or waste more time growing the last of the event crop ? What are the prizes, anything I would miss if I lost out ?

    Maybe just focus on doing one side - I'm trying to complete the left side in hope of getting the pink cat upgrade. Also remember that as soon as you have finished doing all your event crops, you might be able to plant something that gives more EPs - and thereby get more drops pr. harvest. Good luck! :)

    I'm probably the only player not fussing about pinks or neons :p I am strictly finish an event (getting all the givers is for me the finishing line) or fail. I know, silly but that's what I wanted out of farmerama. Every time I get the feeling Pay-2-win, the game losses a bit of interest. Where is the challenge? And this does feel a bit pay-2-win but maybe my strategy just isn't working.

    Among others, a PINK Cat is up for grabs. Some of the earlier posts in this thread go over different strategies. Personally, I believe the best way to get the most steps done is to progress evenly through each side because once you get to a certain point (step 48 on each side) the demand for Potions and Plant Pots increase dramatically.

    Now would also be a good time to review your current event strategy as well. There's still plenty of time to get all the drops you need, you'll just need to be willing to be flexible with your farm. As such, some things to note.

    Short crops are horrible for giving drops, and in the case of this event, Pink Crocus is not going to give you many drops. Spring Lilies are a bit better, but again, nothing great. It's essential that anyone who wants to complete the entire event grow those crops as fast as possible to get them out of the way, then switch to a different crop with a long grow time. Many of these longer crops also have refinements which can drastically shorten the time it takes to reach harvest, thus increasing the amount of drops you acquire. This thread can help with understanding (https://board-en.farmerama.com/inde...-time-reducing-tools-and-artisan-drops.15515/) I like Roses, Carnations, Blueberries, Garlic, Spinach, Spelt, Onions, and Hazelnuts.

    Once you know what crops you're going to grow, it's time to consider space. Event's are challenges which require active participation, and often times this means a farmer needs to be flexible about their growing space. The more field you dedicate to completing the event, the easier time you'll have completing it.

    Next comes buffs, use of 1x1 fields and Carrot-apple Chutney decrease the time spent growing event crops by increasing production.

    Last but not least, trophy level. You don't need to completely max out your trophies (it's a high cost), but you should try to get somewhere around 26% as a minimum. This will greatly increase the amount of drops you get over time, making the event even easier to complete, or in the case of Hard/Medium events, it makes them doable.

    If you need help with any of this, don't hesitate to ask.


    It's not the EP amount the drop rate is associated with, it's the base time to grow. Longer is better, and using buffs to shorten the growing time has no negative impact upon the drop rate.

    You're not the only one. I prioritize the CR over most other things.

    Oh thanks, Decree. I thought the drop rate was associated with EP. Well, nice to know how it really works :)

    Don't give up! There's still more than enough time to reach your goal. :)

    As annaquinn pointed out earlier, you have to complete a minimum of 120 tasks to get the cloud row and all 4 deco items.

    If you follow my strategy, you can get the cloud row + items, an extra 2x2 EP giver, a pink cat kennel, all of the wonder trees and stables, and a few other goodies with only 724 drops.

    You can also split the 120 tasks evenly between the two sides like Decree suggests, but that would require 814 drops. And since the more valuable rewards are near the end of each task chain, you would be missing out on those as well.

    You can do it, Moraine. Event crop drops are awful, but once you switch to longer timed normal crops they improve significantly. There are some decent prizes to be had, may as well go for it. I know how you feel though- Pay to win? Never!

    On my main farm I've done both sides pretty evenly, but now that I've reached level 47 on the right, I'm focusing on finishing up the left side before doing any more of the right. I guess I've combined both Decree and Zero's strategies, because that's what works best for me. Drops are what I'm waiting for now. I'm using refined crops to get them. My two favorites are raspberries for overnight, and crop squares for daytime drops. Too bad we have to wait 24 hours to switch out our refinements. :(

    You and me both -Sunny- ;) I'm on 48 on the left and 47 on the right. I'll keep the right side waiting now though :p, going for the pink cat kennel first. I'll have all event crops by tomorrow afternoon so then I'll focus on best layout for drops. Good luck everyone! Hope you all reach your goals with this event.

    I'm having trouble with drops too and having to stick to crop squares... I think I'm missing something on the refineries as I don't think I can change them without a 48 hour delay or similar but haven't done much with refinery for ages... :(

    Wish I could help you with the refineries Karen but I'm still working to gain my 'green thumb' :music:. Give me a garden outside and tell me you need it fixed up and producing edible food, I can most certainly do my best to meet your needs, but here in this digital farm world... :p I'm still stuck in kindergarten class... xD

    Nellie, if we only could paddle on together, you on the left paddle me on the rightxD

    I have left a bit too many trees out, could be one of the reason why my boat isn't going forward, too much water seeping in-.- I just don't want to put them out again after the event -.--.--.-

    I'm taking onboard all your advice, giving them each a life jacket just in case - safety first you know, and shall continue. As soon as crop is out of the way, I'll cross my fingers, put superglue on so it won't un-cross and hope for the best. You guys are the best:inlove::inlove::inlove::inlove:
