Strategy: Farm Work 101 V2

Finished, thanks to the wheel of fortune 2x100% bonus and thanks to the neighbors for the gifts

 

Congrats to those of you that have finished!
Geez it is slow going without any harvest bonuses anywhere. I haven't managed to score one for weeks. A little concerned I will get this finished with just CAC. I should do. Still need 4700 crops and 610 watering cans. Spewing I missed the 4 hour wheel ticket sale (sleep hours hahaha).

 

I trained the wrong animal and need to grow more crops. Oh well.

 

CT , I have noticed is much harder to win either 100% or Even 200% Harvester it not easy to win +1 crop Harvester either, but today there is +1 in daily giver today, also in the season shop you can get +1 crop with 9 season tokens this etoken has given us some season tokens

it will be beneficial in Rainforest, Main Field and Baha, plus other fields, I haven't bothered use manure lately just too expensive it peak at 6000 cc but still manage to be doing OK

In my Green Meadow and Magical glade been growing Reeds it helps tremendously on watering cans

There was mini Event to buy Crate O Buffs recently, with this have better chance to obtain 200% or 100% Harvester Both of these need a Diamond slot then run for 24 hours as a compromise use the Pinkie Pie Pie extended this by 7.2 hours

I am hoping to finish this event by this evening

Making nice CC selling pumpkins belated Halloween Sale lol

 

The wheel bonuses are getting more rare all the time. This farm and the teenaged farm are doing the whole event with CAC and the +1 from the season tokens and the +1 from fuzzles that we got yesterday. They are on track to finish, so it is doable. Oh yeah, I might have gotten up in the night to harvest at 2 a.m. and replant, too. Ugh.

 

I'm done. To crow or not to crow? I choose not to, so I got only couple of extra dots. It is time to fill stock. All crates o' manure are used, farm coins were used to get more space in pet playground for new items and seasons and FSQ require all kind of things.

Squirrel gives 2 crates o' buffs. It would have been possible to harvest twice with +1 crop/4 h daily gift, because with water and manure it takes just under that - perhaps next time I remember that, not waisting time to other things.

 

@Mooboy Oh, I missed the +1 we got yesterday . I did reap the reward but couldn't use it. It's due to Europe's daylight savings time ending last month. When they are in DST midnight reset occurs at 6am my time, which coincides perfectly with when I get up, grab the daily reward, harvest the farm etc and am out the door by 7.30am.
Now that DST has ended, the reset happens at 7am. I am still doing my farm at 6am, then grabbing the daily at 7am (or I forget), then out the door at 7.30am. So I grabbed it after I had already harvested and it expired 4 hours later when I was working and crops wouldn't have been ready anyway. Total waste. I will have to take better note of what I am clicking in future. Gee sorry that was so longwinded.

Also not using manure, its so expensive. I only bought 1 crate of buffs from the sale and it gave an EP bonus, which wasn't what I hoped for but is still good.

I have used a +1 from Seasons tokens, just waiting for enough tokens to get another. Pity they only last an hour. You definitely have to plan correctly as I have been caught out before forgetting they don't store

I will finish in the next 24 hours, as I only need 12 more watering cans and 1843 crops.

@-Päärynä11 what squirrel, please?

 

CT: The Squirrel in the event gives 2 Crates of Buff in the third section.

Can't count how many times I've activated something AFTER it is useful!

 

Thanks, I wasn't sure what it was referring to. I got EP buffs like normal

 

yeah completed this event, really no stress with this one just shows no need to use expensive manure or harvester boosters

I am having more luck with boosters from Crate O Buffs than using my party wheel tickets yeah dunno why they are getting rarer hmmmmm

Putting these givers in the pet playground

 

I don't know if it was the wheel update adding the kracken or me hitting level 100, but the wheel changed a lot. It's full of harvester coupons now where I never saw one before and I would rather not have them taking up a revenue bonus spot, which I cant seem to land on anyway. But many people saying they are rarer means it was just me levelling up . I don't often get wheel tickets from the couple of crates I get, so I just rely on the ones given as DGs or prizes and buying the party wheel spins when there is a sale on urgh.

All finished now. I only overshot by 1 lot of pumpkins thankfully.

 

All done! Phew no over-donations this time.

I decided to speed things up by using a +200% Overall Harvest buff which takes a Diamond slot. There are not many occasions when this slot is not full of CAC so it seemed a good time to use it. And wouldn't you just know it, I also got a +100% for 24 hours on the Wheel ... which was nice! Just to add the cerise sur le gateau, I used 9 Season Tokens to get an extra +1 crop for an hour - - so for one harvest of both event crops I got 9 seeds.

On a side note, I have not donated anything to the Season event but I have still managed to complete level 28 - if there was anything I wanted at the end stages, I might consider going for it but it's really not worth it for the "chance" of getting a Gecko ... I have had several Agger stables with nothing worthwhile appearing. As for Exedra stables - so many Yellow pens and not a Blue Jay in sight!
Good luck for those still going for it!

 

I so detest DLT LOL sorry I just had to say that

 

Me, too, FrootloopGrove. Just wish they'd leave things be.

Anyway, this farm finished yesterday. PM23's struggling a bit with the last 1700 crops needed to finish the squirbo.

 

we dont have it on the west coast here as we get enough daylight as it is. Not even summer here yet and its starting to get light before 5am and not dark until nearly 7pm now. The east coast however has it.

I am hating Europe NOT being in it especially this week. The next events would normally start 8pm. They have kicked back to 9pm. But because of testing ( to put into perspective I am +8 GMT) the next events start at 1am.

 

Finished last night! For once, I had all the drops I needed when I needed them.

In California, we do have daylight savings time - hate it! In the pre-COVID driving days, it made sure the sun was directly in my face while driving to work. Just when it would get better, the time would change and put that sun full on in my face again!

We are -8 GMT. Does that mean the event starts at 1 pm here? on the 25th?
