    I put things like that out on the Lighthouse field. Then I only harvest them manually when I want to use them. DON'T use your auto harvest.

    And I've already had a senior moment and milled the wrong plant when I started the third round of crops. So annoyed with myself that I'd have to wait another 5hrs for more fir I actually went and bought a small event basket which I never do.

    Good luck with all events.

    Hoping someone can help: I finished all of the moonlight steps but it will not let me complete the last step in it the cloud row 1 step and I have enough ball ornaments. Is this a glitch or am I missing something? Thanks for any advice.

    The cloud row box contains three colors.
    So you have to complete all 3 tasks and then you can open it last.

    (You also need all the colored keys to continue the 2 door tasks.)

    Illy - re: the Jack o' Gifts:
    As TommyBurns explained - I am very careful where I place them and I manually harvest them. This farm had one and I put it on the MM field. I milked the 20 uses over the course of a year. I was really sad when I used that last charge. Now I'm back to depending on wheel spins or the gold/diamond slot buffs on this farm. Sewinglady's farm had a dry spell that lasted over a year - no jack o' gifts at all in piccolo boxes, etc. Then all of sudden - two in the space of a week. So one is sitting on the park and I now have to remember to manually harvest all the buff givers so as not to activate it when I don't really need it.

    Anyway, this event. The bugboo is the recurring dice givers. At a full 24 hours, they are a pain to harvest - gets a bit later every day. 23 hours would have been nice.

    Y'all don't really want to know that sewinglady's farm is done growing crops for this event. All that's left on that farm is playing yahtzee. This farm is slogging along as are the teenager and toddler farms.

    Thank you. Not sure I understand correctly. Specifically for the first cloud row, even though I finished all the moonlight steps for it I cannot open it.

    Must complete all tasks
    In the fields, Baha and the Full Moon Area
    Then you get the cloud row open. (object in the middle)
    The items on the cloud row open when the two sets of tasks around have been completed.

    So we really don't need the festive slide 1x2 giver? I thought I needed it for the CR. Nope. Need the 1x2 giver that comes along climbing the mountain - we need the seesaw, not the slide. grrrr.

    I finished all the night events using all my resources to have a comfortable vacation and this morning I saw the event plant bonus of the winter calendar and it made me sad, I would prefer it to be given as a coupon so everyone can activate it when it works for them.

    (Translator used from Finnish to english)

    Done - all first 3 "trails" and after them section 2 trail up to CR (=done).


    In addition, 6900++ points have already been obtained ("The Piccolo Box is coming to town...") in the Dice game and as you can see from above, all the boxes that give dice=games are opened.

    To top it all off, Weekend Event 1 has also been completed. Of course, the Jack O Gift was in use throughout the duration of the tasks, which I use in my own tactic for every event where a lot of field crops are grown. Now there are still 2 downloads left, which I will use for the next two Weekend Events.

    In order for the luck to be as good as possible, extra plants were left from the paths of the first section "tremendously" i.e. 13 pcs, 27 pcs and from one "horribly" i.e. 116 pcs. I did not calculate the above-mentioned amount of plants in any way in advance, but I watered and manured the entire area at a time.

    A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2023 to ALL players and Forum administrators!

    Thank you to TommyBurns and Dumbunny for the info on Jack O'Gifts, much appreciated. I have only had one rarely so didn't really know anything about it. Will be much wiser where I put any future Piccolo Boxes! :D

    I bought this one, 50/50 chance I needed it and picked the wrong one! What a waste of points. It shouldn't be with the other CR items! :cry:
    Chugging along nicely with this event, a bit slower on the other ones but they are doing alright, I think. :p

    Merry Christmas everybody and all the best for 2023! ;)

    I too bought that giver without thinking. :cry: :p

    And I have been planting the farm event crop only in the main field for nearly 1 1/2 day without realising that it can also be planted in the green meadow. And here I was wondering why I wasn't making any reasonable progress in that part of the event map. Above all, I was the one who started this strategy thread for this event. xDxDxD

    For all GOOD and joke and by s-m-i-l-e :inlove::music: "Home game in own grouds - You are just a Genius". Better notice that "little" mistake (Green Meadow also in game) now, than 2-3 days later, when You are almost finnish it/that part...

    In Finnish language we have "sanonta" (=Phrace? or saying / proverb) Straight translate by google, you can try from finnish to english "Tekevälle sattuu ja tapahtuu" --> is in English "It hurts (and happens) who/to whom does it!". Don´t know if there is same in english but "better language"...

    yes, It hurts and happens to those who do it. (Tekevälle sattuu ja tapahtuu). I am happy I realised it at least now. I won't make the same mistake for the next crop. ;) What is there to worry about. So take everything in good stride.

    I know ! I know! That's why I cannot even cry. Only laugh. :p

    but but mentioned - IF if IF if - next one Your crop is Moonlight Crop.... trums... Only upper One MM-field and... if it is Festive-crop...tadaa ... Main and Upper MM-field - but the you already KNOW, dosen´t you :inlove::D8)
    :wuerg:

    My own situation - boring... - was too good bonuses -

    Today I was able to go to a restaurant to eat (I´m long-term unemployed, 12 years, so no money usually, this time also other pay me...) - from the usual MENU, not Lunch menu, with my closest and only living relatives - all 7 people.

    What should I do now, it's 00:54 AM in Finland and all the plants are done, I get dice in the game at 09:10 in the morning.

    "Too good is not good either" - thats same word to word in Finnish and in English - BTW... (<--- I was 47 years when I learn this short-name!)

    MERRY CHRISTMAS! It's coming up on 8 p.m. and the day is winding down. I hope everyone was able to spend some blessed time with family and friends.
    Now that the flurry is over, I finally just got both fields fully planted on the main farm - my last area. My dice come at 11 p.m. and I'm at level 25 of the dice game prizes. I'm always amazed at how quickly some of you finish events!!! Congratulations and best of luck to the rest of us :)

    I also bought that useless Festive slide. Perhaps it ends up in cloud rows some day. I was also buying more expensivebonus crates before I realized there are cheaper ones hiding in another part of star coin shop xD
    Now it is just boring waiting to get dices, I got last Festive Wreathsterias yesterday.

    Farmerama is not working well, right now my star coin shop is missing, Crystal Falls has dry season often, the river disappears, sometimes I have mainland buildings in Baha, Consumable items have pictures of decos etc. I should log out and clear cache etc once again, so hopefully I have star coin shop, after I collect soon 4 cups of dices and play the games.
