Carnival Queen + "Too Much Candy" Carnival Support Quest

Just now done 100% of Support Quest, Lablab-Beans 9h35min to all 3 areas small plots.

 

Seriously, how do people manage to harvest thousands of crops in two days? Is it thousands of SG or is there a certain giver that helps you out?

 

The key, for me, is punctuality. This crop, just with water, takes four hours. So I set an alarm. That means I can go do other stuff, and pop back when needed. In a 16hr day I can get five harvests with crops on Every 1x1 square - All 532 of them on the Baha fields. Jack O' gifts and 100% bonuses are wonderful aids but they still rely on me getting there when crops are ready! ​

 

if playing on PC (like me) You can adjust your screensize - I use 150% and my display is only 22" (and I´m 52y)

Game update: I just played 79 games, the ones (100%) from the quests and everything I got done in the mill when the fields were already full of new plants.

I think I missed one Star Coin symbol (= 5 star coins), when for some reason 4 of them flew at once and all to different sides of the screen.

Total catch 1810 star coins.

I collect (my order) star coins, green drops, red probes and wood dung as well as money symbols. Possibly Farm Coins. I'll leave everything else alone.

Have a nice weekend everyone (it's 9.36 am in Finland).

 

As an alternative, and using less SG/SSG: I have used Comfort Fields with water, manure, SG and SSG. I have a plant bonus +100% and I have a Jack O Gift - each plot gives me 40 plants. This means it is possible to finish within 3 days.

I normally leave trees round the outside but this time I used event plants. BUT it is necessary to delete the single plots before planting the CFs and adding SG/SSG, etc, unless you want them to be speeded up too.

The CFs take 4 hours 20 minutes so at least three harvests are possible in a normal day (mine anyway). I will finish the crops today and then concentrate on the drops still needed (I have over half of the required amount of drops). As an addition, I find I get a drop from most CFs.
Remember, though, each plot needs three seeds. EDIT: Taking this into account, you get 37 per plot.

CFs really come into their own when you have a +100%/+200% bonus.

 

I have a Jack O'Gift giver too, but it looks like it only gives EP. How do I use it to help with crops?

 

Jack O'Gift is a limited charge giver, once you've run out of them it becomes a "normal" EP giver. That won't help with your crop harvests, sorry to be the beared of bad news.

 

I have now completed this event! I did the "Too much candy quest" and played all 66 mini games. I also "Milled 12 Baskets"
with the extra crops I grew and the drops I got. I ended up with a total of 1,830 star coins to spend, and for me that was more than enough to buy what I wanted too! I am now going back to normal farming. So, to any of my neighbors and friends who send my farm drops I no longer need any but there may be someone who does! Good luck and I hope you all reach your goals!

 

I too have completed the Too Much Candy Quest. Nice event, Queenie was a little stingy and no PF this time but otherwise pretty good prizes. I got all of the three latest Wonder Stables and that was about all I wanted.
Good luck all those still working through it!
