Konohana's 4th Field?

SilentPsycho · Post Posted: Oct 13, 2011 3:53 pm

This may be a weird question, but where does the 4th field expansion go. One thing I always like to do in my HM games is to landscape my farm. I'm currently planning on adding trees around the top of the 3rd field expansion, but I just know that if I do, the 4th expansion would probably be right behind it, causing anything I plant there to be hidden by the trees.

Anyone got an image of what a 100% Konohana Farm looks like? Or at least one with all four fields?

By ze godz, that's one heck of a farmland for crops. Maybe I should move onto Bluebell after certain amount of Kano expansion requests. o.o;

Wow :O

303 spaces in the main area
27 spaces by your house
10 spaces below the road
4 spaces below the barn
2 spaces right of the barn

If anyone is interested in planning out their farm, I have it set up in excel from when I did mine up and can upload if there's any interest.

@ Origon: I would like to see it, thank you very much. It's nice to have a plan for your future farm's layout.

there is the link to the .xlsx containing field layouts. the fields are to size, but the distances between different patches of plowable space may not be exact.

Meep! 0_0

Yeah, I think I'll wait until I get the 4th field before I add any more trees. That top line is practically begging me to put trees there. Thanks for the image!

I have to admit, I didn't even know there were some spaces near the barn...

I originally thought trees along that top line were the way to go, but getting nicely setup trenches in the right numbers for your max level watering can proved to be a tad tricky. with trees along the top line I managed to use all but 5 squares in good even trenches, but setting them up along the left treeline, I was able to use all but 2, and with a much better aesthetic layout. Just something to think about =]

*tries to find a good layout* Hm... This is pretty difficult. If I were to place trees in the furthest places away from my house (with spaces between each trees), aligning them at the top, and the left, I would be able to fit 10 trees, which is good since the game has 9 different tree seeds. If I make another row of trees a long the top (also with spacing), I'll be able to fit in 3 more, making it a total of 13 trees (4 trees can be duplicates for popular dishes).

What's left of the big field (space from trees), I would be able to fit in 80 squares of crops (plus flowers), making it at least 10 of each type since each season has about 8 different crops you can grow in that season. This isn't including the extra spots sitting around in the Kano farm's field. For those extra patches, they'll be quite useful (especially the one next to the fish pond and the one below the road) for raising star rank of a certain crop.

There are 8 different trees. 2 spring, 2 summer, 3 fall, 1 winter. the tea trees are bushes that take up 1x1 squares and can be treated as crops or grain.

There are 4 spring flowers, 2 summer flowers, 3 fall flowers and 3 winter flowers. There are 6 spring crops, 7 summer crops, 5 fall crops and 2 winter crops, making your totals

spring - 11
summer - 9
fall - 8
winter - 5

Then there are also the 3 types of grains if you're interested in growing those.

Hm... I somehow counted 309 squares. But I'm bad at counting xD. Anyway, then there are 204 crop squares for me (99 are reserved to trees). I can't wait to cover that sweet piece of land with 5-star pineapples. I hope there is really a villa in this game so I can have a ultimate goal.

Origon, thank you SO much, I have been trying to layout my crops for the fully upgraded field for like an HOUR now, this will help a lot!

... yeah, I don't even have the field. I'm kind of a layout geek... my way of playing Harvest Moon even when I'm not playing Harvest Moon. XD

Origon · Post Posted: Oct 13, 2011 6:16 pm

not a problem. I've only found two 'decent' layouts (for myself) that contain just one of every single tree (not counting tea). Would be interesting to see what others come up with.

I managed to do a crazy single trench only missing one square:

Spoiler:

Pretty messy xD
I put 9 trees but actually one of them is 9 tea bushels.
