Build: v1.2-1240
Platforms: PC (Steam) and Steam Deck. The testing was done on a completely reinstalled game on PC.
I noticed I didn’t get a single "Quality crop" popup after harvesting a large field (500+), only "Double crop" and "Replant". I cheked on the Steam Deck too. Since I don’t know whether you are supposed to get a popup, I tested whether the skill even works.
Test conditions:
- New game, freshly started for the test.
- 200 turnips
- Farming Mastery 2
- Crops are basic, not upgraded.
- Harvesting (with a scythe) then reloading the game.
- 5 times harvesting without taking the "Quality Crop" skill.
- 5 times harvesting after taking the "Quality Crop" skill on the same morning as the harvest (don’t know whether that matters or not).
Results:
- Without "Quality Crop": 907 normal (90.7%), 74 bronze (7.4%), 19 silver (1.9%)
- With "Quality Crop": 897 normal (89.7%), 77 bronze (7.7%), 26 silver (2.6%)
Under these test conditions, "Quality Crop" did nothing. The results are within the margin of error and definitely do not reflect the ‘10% chance to harvest better-quality crops’ working.
Edit: I tested whether Double Crop and Replant work under these conditions, and they did.
Edit2: Farming mastery typo.
