Fun story, apparently you can't really manage 64 fields of 3x3 crops without a super powered dewey. For the record (I tried, I failed, it was a mistake)

I'm scaling back to a 3x1 row of W. Berry and S. Berry on lush on all elevations and then I'm also going to try and see if I can manage a 3x1 on Marsh at all, and entirely ignore my dry field until I'm done with the lush/marsh. We'll see what happens. :shock:

Thanks for keeping us posted on your hard work, Cradke!

Slightly off-topic: I have hand surgery coming up the day after tomorrow, so I won't be able to play much for at least a couple of weeks. I'll try to keep the first post updated, but I might be a little slow to post.

I'm in Fall year 3 and I am making a terraced field 16 squares wide starting at the top of the Harvest Goddess Spring down to bedrock on the far side of the valley towards the Moon Cave thing. I might be crazy. I'm going to run water down it so I have a marshy square, lush square, patchy, and dry area each elevation. What are other things people are making?

My idea about pearl onions has something to do with water because pearls come from oysters?

I don't have anything really useful to add other than thank you everyone for all your hard work! I can't even manage to grow San Marzano's even with the spreadsheet, so to see how much you've discovered is mind boggling :shock:

If I did have to take a guess, and this is purely a guess, I would guess that the pearl onions might be a mutation of petite onions, since a pearl onion is a small and sweet onion. (Even though that post by CeeCee on the developer's blog seems to indicate it's a mutation of a normal onion seed...)

Sorry in advance, if there is a page that discuss this already then by all means let me know

I want to know how many of each crop and flower would need to be sold before you can buy the seeds, for example How many white strawberries would I need to sell? and to whom it needs to be sold to? before I can get the seeds for them
