Unless you want more fertilizing time.irulethegalaxy wrote:Later on you'll unlock other fields that take the other soils. If you're at the start of the game, the dry soil is all you can use anyway.
But switching to the "soft" fields right away (I forget what they are called in English) is a good idea, because stuff grows a lot faster on them.
Yup, pros and cons to both. Regrowing veggies you'll make a lot more money off of the faster growth cycle, and still get to fertilize just as much. Longer growth stuff like soybeans and wheat take an age anyway. The seed maker is so fast in this game that generally I've found the faster growth to produce more money.LightHawKnight wrote:Unless you want more fertilizing time.irulethegalaxy wrote:Later on you'll unlock other fields that take the other soils.

Still wondering if the soft soil will affect regrowth on trees...because in the course of a year you can bump the quality up on fruit trees pretty high. That's a pretty good source of income even before getting the wine maker.
