best you can do with 6 apples if you want water retain you need fort
out of curiosity - what happens if you never weed
crops wont grow as weed takes water from them.
ah thank you
you can "save" weeds on crops you don't intend to harvest. I do this on wheat. don't have to hunt down where the weeds spawned
why would you not harvest any crop though
Maximum number of flowers reached 😦 I could really use about twice the limit.
I have 7 apple tree, 18 wheat. I have a 2x3 spot of wheat I harvest along with the apples, the other wheat spots hold weeds. I don't need that much wheat so they don't need harvested
Crazy but not profitable
I'm not doing it for money. I mean I preserve apples but really only because what else would I be doing with crops¿ and I like apple pie, wheat and apple!
i'm the same way, i just harvest my 4 apple trees, between having the jams in the worm farms and the excess of jams to sell, i don't need to harvest the rest of my garden. i just leave them there
call me crazy but i grow and sell tomatos all day every day haha
kept an apple tree until recently but the timing was annoying so i chopped it down
max tomato. more than you can do with (not really, but will take a lot of jam/seed)
that looks like a really nice calc - personally i've only played palia for fun, even the money making - so i've never gotten that crazily into the efficiency of production
yeah I could have changed for a few more, but I went with visually appealing
but looks like a great tool
Values are still unknow as their function for gardening is so messy but in most cases working
Like that one for example. It says only tomatoes next to apple tree will get boost but in reality all of them got
yeah
a crop can't boost itself. you need something other than tomato next to the tomato
What makes the Harvestboost Fertilizer?
Not sure or this up to date, but I get it using grilled fish. There is an thingy : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cDsOxSJSkODSEimSEZmmos2_5hOGJ1Typ4tXutjBI9I/edit#gid=1206330854
Has anyone identified what causes a garden to 'lose' progress? Is it when the game closes without loading in an out of the plot, or is there something else to be aware of? Do you have to collect a crop or use a fertilizer or something to make the progress sync to the cloud/autosave?
Hey :) any good 9x9 :
_ 2 apple tree_
and some blueberry layouts?
Rest can be whatever, have pepper seeds too!
Define lose progress
I inspect my fertilizer and the number goes upinstead of down. Some examples are when closing and reopening the game or exiting and reentering plot without interating with garden.
Are they mature or only adult?
Not quite full grown. I figured out they have to be absolutely wild seeds and full grown. Any gifted seeds or plot seeds don't work
Ah okay, good to know 👍
Can you put fertilizer down after planting seeds? I totally forget to do it before every time
yes
question is there a chance to get a flow tree from normal seeds when u plant them in ur plot?
No
so there are flowtree seeds that u need for that no?
Yes, you need flow tree seeds.
Yes, each flow tree you grow to maturity gives you a seed, and you can plant them as much as you want
Im guessing they arent sold anywhere
Nope. To get flow tree seeds, ||go to the Night Sky Temple after finishing the Temple of the Roots and complete the Vault of the Roots bundles. You’ll get a Gardener statue that has a 25% chance of giving you a flow tree seed every IRL day||
oh so not even from chopping flowtrees?
Nope
i cant seem to find the hidden chests starting to wonder if they are inside a temple or something
is that possible? or they have to be on the worlds(kilima or bahari)?
You mean for the medallions?
yup
Nah they’re not in the Temples, only around the maps
Which is more profitable, tomato’s or wheat?
they're all only in bahari iirc, and some of them are Really hidden. some i used a map and still couldn't find them 
Tomatoes 🍅
I think theres one or two in the ||temple of water|| 🧐 but most of them are out in the world!
¿What's this?
Do you mean the flare?
Yeah
People flare rare resources sometimes to help others find them
Lately I’ve been seeing random flares though-
i’m getting so overwhelmed with my tomatoes 🥲 i did a 9x9 with tomatoes and wheat and it’s great for money but even 6 seed collectors ain’t enough
idk if i should get more seed collectors or reduce the plot to like 3x6 instead
Maybe get some jars and some appletrees too 😄
yeah i usually do only a few tomato plants because they give so many tomatoes (so.. many) and have the rest be something else
but definitely buy more craftingwrits
there's a lot of quite similar gains crops to switch those tomatoes out with for sure
might be me oops, sometimes i forget to switch arrow after flaring a resource and i shoot a sernuk with a flare 😭
i literally just did that 10 minutes ago LOL
it's always amusing to see someone shoot a flare at glambi and then another. and another. it's like, hmm, okay then
sometimes the braincells don't kick in, speaking from experience here 😂
Hi. I'm not sure how to do the quest for the Prove Your Devotion: grow five wild trees. I already plant and grow 5 trees which is 5 acorn. Then it didn't worked, so I did plant the Samara tree instead and grew it until it mature but still nothing. So, I am not sure what I am doing wrong?
there seems to be a bug with that quest, and a few other people have had the same problem. you could try putting the tree in your inventory and placing them again, but it hasn't always worked. i just hope they'll fix it soon
I'm not sure where to ask, but is it 9 the maximum of plots for gardening? Does this change as you level up?
Yes it’s the max for now, it doesn’t change as you level up 
you could try the bokchoy /rice /wheat method and try to max out seed makers
i have currently 19 seed makers on my plot and i just chuck everything into them and sell what i don’t use to replant
it’s an investment to buy crafters but it’s always a worthy one
i definitely plan to switch to preserving when i get apple and blueberry seeds :D
Where do I buy more space to plant my veggies?
Badruu's guildstore!
up to 9 plots total
Where is that exactly?
Badruu is the farmer! It depends on the time of day where he hangs out though, but his guildstore is on interacting with him! on the left side of his conversation is a button to it
Ohhh thanks🙌
Np

https://palia.wiki.gg/wiki/Badruu here's his locations per time of day as well if you're interested 😄
are apples trees a one and done planting like the other trees, or are they like the blueberries where i have to replant? trying to see if i should make seedss
they give harvest 4 times total!
thank you!
np

btw they take a total of 30 hours to grow without growthboost, should be 20 with growthboost!
after that you have to plant a new one
Can also recommend this garden layout planner for both of you for when you get there
@wide dawn @clever cliff https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app
I've started using is recently 😁 It works great
im honestly just throwing things down where they look good. im not aiming for min/max gardening lol i dont mind
be sure to show your garden off some time, I always like it when people are just creative with their gardens 😄
thank you! it was a pain to place, but worth the time!
That’s a lot of chili peppers XD
Hello, looking for an 9x9
2-4 apple trees
2-4 blueberry
and Cotton layout!
I've seen several on reddit and so, maybe I can adjust any of those for cotton as well?
I'm pretty new and this will be my first apples I want to get star quality for next runs! 😆
how many seed collectors would be ideal to have on my plot at once?
Heyyy can someone give me a run down of the gardening in the game like whats the best crops to plant for proit and such! (Stardew player here) gardening is a very fun aspect of the game for me hihi!
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1YV_LiHp48shNifWakdZtOI9j6_IqQI0A7dRdr28lHNY/htmlview
Usually tomatoes potatoes combo would net money early game but thats just my method. Others may have different opinions :D
what website is that? id love to get ahold of that
so if i dont have blueberries or apples then i should do potatos?
Sure. You can plant potatoes & turn them into seeds for profits
what about Rice? or Wheat?
so wait are you selling the seed or the produce?
Sell the seeds. You put the crops you harvest into seed collectors
o ok so i sell the seed ok
If you have preserve jars, you can put tomatoes there (be reminded it takes 1h30mins for 1 tomato to be turn into a pickled tomato while it takes 3 tomatoes for 2 seed but it takes 42min)
thx!! cheers!!
i used to run this LOL
well i have 52 tomatos with no stars and 10 with stars. so i wonder if i should crush them all into seeds
should i put all totmatos and potatos into the machine to be crushed into seeds or just some
your choice i guess. I put my tomatoes in preserve jars mainly bcos i have other source of income + they'll continue to run offline
Are star apples, turned into preserve jam, feed to the glow worm farm, still the most profitable?
im not high enuff to have preserver. also how do you water nine crops at once with fine water can? can you water serveral at once?
pretty sure normal worm farm nets more, no?
Glow worms sell for 5x more.
Just aim at the centre of the plot ig. Thats what i do
Wdym
normal worm sells for 5g each, glow worms sell for 25g each
don't you get 16 normal worm per quality apple jam & 3 glow worms per quality apple jam
Its like 5g difference but eh
Never really tried with regular worms. Someone mentioned the apple preserves and I was curious. I just do passive income by buying the mushrooms from Zeki and dropping them into the glow farms. Mostly so I always have glow worms but I sell all the excess. I think I still make more gold per day with my tomato, corn and rice farm setup.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1YV_LiHp48shNifWakdZtOI9j6_IqQI0A7dRdr28lHNY/htmlview general concept on worm/glow worms
For apples on normal worms
Though buying mushrooms, grilling them and then selling them makes a nice bit of profit while leveling up your cooking.
I use the star apple seeds for storing so I have easily gold when I need it (like when I used 700k to make a 13 gabezo of flowers plot, and that got shot in the foot when 3 didnt come out and then 10 more did)
Thanks for the info. I was looking it up online but sooooo many bots with links to copied info.
@pallid latch How many normal worm farms do you have?
only running 2 glow 1 normal. Since i only have 21 crafters total, 10 of it are seed collectors & 3 are preserves. The rest are for wood & ores. Plus im getting glow worms to fish instead
how many seed machines do you have
10... as stated
oh i didnt see the comment. sorry
Okay I am level 10 gardener. and now?
Now you start doing the weekly achievements. And you have access to the gardening guild store. Talk to Badruu about that
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cDsOxSJSkODSEimSEZmmos2_5hOGJ1Typ4tXutjBI9I/edit#gid=1206330854 here's a complete overview if you're interested 😄
Has anyone else planted nettles and it's grown into a fiddlefronds?
The images are swapped in the inventory
I thought so, but when I plant both I just get fiddlefronds
heyyyy so does starred jam not exist?
It does 
and starred produce = starred jam?
Yes 
Ahh I see. It seems I have made an error.
Thank you for halp.
Unfortunately you can’t display it. I hope soon they will let us. I have empty shelves in my pantry waiting for the ⭐️ quality of all the jams and pickled items
Oh bummer! They would be so cute in a pantry!
I tried to go for all crops + as many boosts as I could muster with the highest amount of revenue 👀 Giving priority to harvestboost + no weeds, the only slot without weedsprevention is the middle one 👀 you can switch out the middle one for cotton as well if you need it 👀 this setup still needs daily watering though (I also have a same setup with water retain incase anyone is more interested in that than weedsprevention) 👀 https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/?layout=v0.2_DIM-111-111-111_CROPS-ORTBk.SW.SOP.SOBk-ORSpBkCrSpBBA-SpORSpBkW.SAACr-RCrWCAABkAA-BBAACb.HAABB-AABkAACWCrR-CrAAW.SBkSpROSp-ABBSpCrBkSpRO-BkOP.SOW.SBk.STRO
Quick question if I may, I noticed after placing the harvest boost fertilizer, that it quickly goes away before the crops are ready to be picked. Do I need to keep adding this to the crops until they are ready? Or is once enough for each crop?
its per day
How many apples should I put in the seed machine to make more apple seeds?
10 apples for 1 seed
I mean like should I put in 80 apples in so I can have like 8 seeds or something like that
I guess I will just make 3 seeds
Im not sure what to do with the rest of the apples
You can make a lot of money making star apple jam and selling those if you wanted to 
I could do that, I would have to make preserves jars though
Yep 
tysm! 😃
Finally got an apple tree
took me forever
does anyone have a good all crops layout for two apple trees?
Would it be best to save for apples first, or get the blueberries first?
you unlock both naturally through quests
I got lucky and got them both at Zeki's machine haha
Can you add more Sole to your second plot or is it 9 only for one plot?
Only 9
unfortunately
so question, so i have 2 seed machines. i put stuff in them. logged off and took a nap. Do those seed machines keep going while im offline? or do they pause?
Where do I buy more gardening plots
The soil? Badruu
Thank you 🙏🏾
Does anyone know if when i log off, do the seed machines keep going or do they pause?
They keep going
Yeah, all machines keep going, just the garden only grows one cycle.
as long as the crafter doesn't fill up, it will keep running as long as there is stuff to process. so remember to refill your crafters before your logout for the night. some can process stuff quicker or slower, so be mindful of the times. it's not a huge loss if they run empty tho, just means you got lots done!
hey guys quick question, for the crop boosts the farm plots need to be overlaping each other or i can separate them a little bit?
If you switch a pepper for a blueberry; and use corn, rice, and wheat for the crop boost, all you would be missing is cotton. And you could plant 4 cotton when you are done with peppers or blueberries.

Mmk I have questions... So farming is the topic. So some crops take days.. I put fertilizer or other things on, and then its gone again before the harvest time... do I still get the benefit from that, or only if I apply it on the last day? Like, am I wasting it putting it on up front?
where do I take non-starred crops if i'm level 50 gardening?
At what level are most of your crops starred assuming you use starred seeds? Right now, I use cotton sometimes or the fertilizer but I don't have space for much cotton since I plant for water retain and harvest boost.
You have to put the fertilizer every grow tic for it to work, but u can stack up to 99 of them, so u don’t have to do it every hour manually
U can only buy them from Badruus stand or request
It grows with every level. When u are level 25 and use all starred seeds all crops are gonna be starred
Level 50 even if u use unstarred seeds, crops are gonna be starred
i dont think i can buy them though\
...and that actually happens ~lvl 35
U can u can, the register on the farm, near the garden
Its on the right side of the Frogbert
doesn't sell berries, just checked
Yeah, peppers, blueberries and apples can only be requested
Badruu sells them at his Guild store, not his register. With medals, not gold
Crops can be bought with gold, blueberry and apple seeds are sold there
Yeah I’m talking about apples and blueberries
You can request 4x 3 apples I think, unsure. And turn 10 into one seed. i was able at level 7 gardening,not sure how and why or does it works for all this way
And after I made my first seed , I was able request seeds itself
Hmm. I can't see any to request. Weird.
i don't know how I was able, did I got apple somehow before? no idea :( But I managed seed 3x apple trees at level 8 gardening this way, hour ago collected my first apples 😊
You have to have obtained an item before to be able to request it
How could I obtain an apple, anyone have ideas?
Zeki or Nai’o level 3 friendship quest
Maybe some quests or chests? i really don't know
Best would be request apple tree seed from friend
Oh no my villagers barely level 2 just few of them
Zeki’s lucky machine, maybe?
Yes, that's how I did after crafting my first seed!
it can give apple ? Probably that then
As yes, at level 7 garden, I put request for apples and cake party gave me those!
just wait 18h till it grow 😄 or just request an apple I think there wiill be someone nice to give you it
Yes, have it growing already 😊
I'll get there eventually haha.
If you put near apple tree a blueberries it will grow even faster!
I been using this method I get a little bit of everything I need 🍎 🫐
nice! Might try later :)
should I do blueberry jam from regular blueberries?
or should I do it to seeds? Or jam and then give to worms ?
Seeds first, jam later. I usually do 50-100 seeds before I make jam
normal ones? and then, what to do with seeds?
normal ones? I assume I want plant starred ones before I hit level 25 garden ,right?
Keep seeds for replanting. Just hit lvl 25 and all will be starred. On your level doesnt really matters if its starred or normal.
Oh , so I shouldn't use starred ones for planting?
I mean you can use but it doesnt matter much as sooner or later all your crops will be starred anyways
what to do with star quality produce then?
You can make seeds from starred ones after having 20-30 starred seeds you can make them for jam
Understood!
is it possible change wood colour of house details like corners /window details ?
Not sure, I think wallpaper changes some but you can ask at #🏡│decor
Hey question: can you chop down the Flow trees that you grow? I have grown them to Mature/max level, and they're really big, but when I have my friends over to chop them, they cannot help me. But I saw it work for someone else...
You have to give them editor permissions
ohhh i see! thank you so much!
So, when I use the garden planner it shows me that a blueberry or apple tree makes less money than covering the whole area in corn, but I see a lot of people focusing on apples and blueberries. Why?
I do, let me backtrack
right here 
ooooh amazing! is the water retain the same or w different crop locations?
To do water retain, replace the bok choy with tomatoes and the onions with potatoes or cabbage
Because we make jam with them, which gets you more money
Can we destroy crops and if we do can we get the seeds back? I gotta move an apple tree which is a big oof
You can destroy them with right click if you're on PC but you will not get the seeds back
I think it was X on Switch? I forgot
ty!
You also need apples to make honey lures.
Yes, but we were talking about money making.
So jam makes more money than kimchi?
Yes, jams are the highest value preserves
Apple jam, at least.
I am thinking of running this layout.
My data shows that corn outperforms apples in every category. The pinned post also agrees, not sure what it’s selling though.
it's slightly different, let me whip it out
omg ty!!!
you're very welcome 😄
on none of my data does corn outperform anything, even with growthboost
you have to limit the amount of crafters probably, otherwise it's unrealistic results - that's my best guess for the outcome you got to
can only have a max of 30 crafters at any time
best layout for all crops but priorities jams and kimchi?
im probably biased but I like this one xD
but im sure other people have pretty choices too 😄
oh thank you! i’ll try this one 🙂
yeah corn only outperforms if you use an infinite amount of crafters, this one isn't limited by the amount of crafters like the previous snip I send
but yeah - that's unrealistic so shouldn't be used as a guideline
this is the correct one - to avoid miscommunication 😄
so apple is still on top 💪
Hey guys! Been gone for a while and got back to a seed maker that doesn't work!!! Am I doing something wrong. It looks like it works but it stays zero.
Hard to say, have you tried removing everything in it and refilling it?
or maybe pick it up and place it back down? 🤔
that bug is why they implemented the X button
if something is in it then X button anyways
should help
Thanks so much. I will give it a try.
what's the best crop so far guys?
apple preserves 
but tbh they are all not that far apart
and I still have to calculate a bit for which one is the best when you use full growthboost
but spicy peppers and blueberries were seemingly better on growthboost, but then again, I still have some research to do on that part
you can check it here
Always appreciate your hardwork 🙏❤️

Hmm, I’ll have to review my data and see where I’m coming up with this. Thanks for the insights
Should I upgrade my watering can and hoe?
Oh God, are those still makeshift!?
I didn't want them to break LOL
Upgrading them is life changing, idk how you’re still watering your crops one by one 
Yeah I guess its time I should upgrade haha
with the exquisite watering can you can water 9 soil at once, i can't live without it now
Oh my god how have you survived this long
I also did just recently get to gardening level 10 lol
Dude why have you been tormenting yourself like this
because I didnt want to bother getting it repaired like the rest of my tools LOL
That is some insane logic, my guy
The pallium/flow versions are extremely helpful and definitely worth upgrading, i think gardening without them is torture
Im going to upgrade them
Yeah
hiii if i want more starred apples, what fertilizer is the best option? i’m level 20 right now
The quality one, either you can wait for level 25 what makes all your crops starred or just put cotton/pepper next to it
okay thank you! i have a cake party to attend tomorrow night and i’m currently at 5/50 starred apples right now 
thank you SO much
how man crop plots can you have total
9
What veggies should I pickle or turn into seeds? :< new to this
Omg tysm! ❤️ This is so helpful, thankyou! c:
Potatoes you should preserve since their worth is like one of the highest preserves, surely?
It’s calculated with how many potatoes you need to make a seed versus how many you need for preserves 
(I was confused too at first)
Oh okay, that makes more sense 😊
@subtle hatch Hello ^^/
yoo wait a sec i am sending it
tyvm <3
ty, will try it out!
this is not completely accurate though, only in terms of unrealistic approach of having unlimjted crafters. I im not at my pc right now but aisen's layout planner does not take the max amount of crafters into consideration yet if I remember correctly
I'll have to check my notes
im glad you dont have to rid your garden of bugs with pesticides. some games do that.
I’m not sure I understand where the difference comes from (I have dyscalculia so this is kinda complicated for me
)
so when you get your harvest amounts, theres only a certain amount you'll be able to craft and sell until you get your next batch, and that is basically limited by how many hours you'll be able to empty your crafters. I didn't calculate the amount of hours tailered to every individual in online hours vs offline hours, since that would take 500 times more math lol, but in a perfect world where you are always on time to empty your crafters, this is basically your best achievable amount of crafted results possible within 24 hours, so its the closest realistic approach for being able to chew through your amounts of produce. It's not really easily explained haha but since we can only have a max of 30 crafters (and I suppose you'll never even reach that amount even since you got some seedmakers vs some jars vs smelters/wood choppers etc) it has to be limited by sómething. You'll never be able to chew through your produce otherwise and will have to sell things raw, meaning you're not meeting the quota for the calculated gains without limitations, and thus will make a loss.
so my calculations are based on the limited (but still max) amount of crafters humanly possible to put to work on a 24 hour basis
when a crafter is working on 1 thing, it can't work on anything else so to speak
Okay that clarifies things actually, thank you so much for taking the time to explain it
Could we pin this in the channel maybe? I’m sure it could help other people understand the charts better 
what up yall. i need tips on how to get my gardening level up quick and efficiently for the furniture from the guild store
this is not my expertise but I think Ive seen people talk about apple giving good exp 🤔
swear they don’t make it easy at all to get medals and apples take so long to grow fr
they are well worth it eventually though! they are the highest gains preserves in terms of money too
i just want medals. gold isn’t a priority for me. so apples and that’s it?
Apples, blueberries, spicy peppers I think? Idk how much XP each of them give though, but apple trees are definitely #1
theres a guide somewhere if I remember correctly on the exp gains from gardening 🤔
cool i’ll look for it. thanks
No problem 😄 glad to help
I still have to finish up the best crops for when you're using growthboost though but signs point to blueberries and spicy pepper coming out on top then
I'll see if it can be pinned 
9 total! so with the max dirtplots (9) you'll be able to plant 9 appletrees max
nice thx so much!!
Yeee, I think only mods can pin? Not sure
When I tested XP rates at 100% focus boost they all came out to be equal. So no matter what you plant you’ll level up the same per day.
This was without speedygrow since it is bugged and can’t be tested right now
Wait that can’t be true though, we get way more XP when harvesting apples for example.
Or is it only the XP boost from the focus that changes?
Well, you get a way bigger amount of xp per harvest. But similarly to dealing with crops, when you break it down by plot size and time grown they balance out.
Ahh, I see.
also how are bok choy the most proitable? I dont understand
all profits are generally about even, so long as you play enough to keep the garden and crafters running efficiently
how many days do i have to water my apple tree
apple trees take 12+6+6+6 days to fully grow/harvest (so would have to water every hour that you are playing for 30 hours to maintain) . or you can place 3 water retain crops next to it, and water it once and let the crops keep it watered as long as the crops are there
Is anyone sitting on a lot of Juniper seeds? I need a lot
Is 113 enough?
Well i can only request 4 at a time right?
Yes. To my knowledge
Anyone knows what time the daily zeki coin resets?
Well the daily reset is around 4 am UTC or around 3pm AEST and usually my zeki coins can be received again at that time as well so. Not sure what that in your timezone tho
Is there a way to use fertilizer on all patches of soil at the same time with one click?
apple trees don't harvest every cycle when fully grown, so what's the most efficient way to harvest boost them?
yeah i don't entirely understand how harvest boost fertilizer works. it seems like fertilizer disappears whenever the plants grow but then does this mean the harvest boost fertilizer was wasted if the plant doesn't grow to its harvest stage?
fertilizer should be added for the entire growthperiod to have the effect. so on a carrot with 3 days of growthtime, it should be applied for 3 days. but in the case of harvestboost, wheat rice and corn can give out that boost too. So if you plant 3 wheat/rice/corn next to your appletree you won't have to use harvestboost fertilizer
in case of appletrees they need 9 fertilizer per growthtick so they eat through fertilizer very quick
i just remember hearing that apple trees should be harvest boosted for efficiency
Thanks, I didn’t realize I posted this in gardening 😅
A crop of 16 versus 24 is more efficacy than efficiency.
That said, you can lay down 99 harvest boosts and keep it topped off and still harvest 16.
It doesn't make sense, but I've had that happen several times since the last patch.
Not to mention if you don't stay on top of the weeds they will dehydrate your plants no matter how many hydrating plants you have around them.
If your plants are dehydrated they won't grow on their timeline properly.
Which sucks, because it's just like an irl garden, lol. I play to escape my problems, not deal with them also in game 😂
all 7 if my apple trees are harvest boosted. 6 by crops and 1 by fert. I get 24 from each tree. I do keep the 1 fert tree always full
Thing is, I learned that plants don't even grow when the game isn't open and you get kicked for AFKing, so I decided that water retain and weed prevention just aren't worth it
If you have high gardening skills then quality boost is useless too
this is why I only do layouts with 100% water retain and weedblock I would be so annoyed otherwise
is there a limit on flow trees on your own plot
well 500 flowers is the limit for those, so maybe 500? can't even imagine the sound or lag of 500 flow trees. I'm at like 80 and it's noisy
anyone have a farm layout for maximum profit using all 9 soil plots? one vegetable only being gathered while the others are just there as companions
replace tomato with whatever crop you want to get a lot of. if it's wheat you want, just turn the pre-existing wheat tiles to rice instead
holy crap where u keepin all dem flow trees
got a line of 30 plus 12 more along the left wall, growing 8, about 30 grouped together, and another 6 or so off screen. it's so loud
omg
and now I have 60 regular trees growing, way too much watering, so I can chop them for xp
i wanna come to your plot and just lay in the middle of that flow mess
thats incredible
some people have been doing tree parties, idk how they got so many so quickly (unless they did the guaranteed flow seed trick nobody will actually ever mention)
wtf is a tree party
they invite people to chop the flow trees together, usually after a cooking party
oh that makes sense
imagine the flow wood from 80 mature trees
significant
ironically
you're doing all that to craft amazing furniture to make your abode more visit friendly
when in the first place, any visitors would have been more impressed by your insane number of flow trees
I'm never cutting my flow trees, got plenty of wood, I want a full plot of flow trees!
ah i see
669 wood, 524 planks. way more than I'll ever need
you are the flowmaster
just going with the flow 😌
whatever flows your boat man
What is the guaranteed method?
idk. anyone who mentions it always says to dm for the trick. I don't dm randos so I don't know it
it's probably the full inventory trick with flow seeds and the rest random items, though i don't know as i haven't tried or done it myself
I honestly don't mind the weeds, they are 10 gold each, lol
But I do mind them more, since they now apparently properly hinder growth.
I only need water retain in my farm. Can't be bothered to keep watering everyday 
watering is really quick with the exquisite can. never minded watering or weeding
anyone have a good garden layout that includes more than one apple tree?
mainly looking to make jams!
this is mine. I run 7 preserver. I use the wheat to hold weeds, except the 6 in top right, those I harvest so I can do wheat tasks in cooking parties
The cap for trees is the entire decoration cap of 3,000. So you can make a plot with nothing but trees. A tree maze. I am trying to find the article where S6 goes into details about it.
thank you!
Oh man now I want to do that...
Idk why people are saying to DM for it.
- Put the flow seeds of whatever tree you're trying to get more of in your inventory.
- Fill the rest of your inventory with anything that is not normal tree seeds (food, furniture, etc)
- Check the gift from the Gardener. If it says "Loot" it's a flow seed matching a flow seed in your inventory. If it says "Inventory Full" It is not a seed you have in your inventory.
- Relog and keeping checking the Gardener until you get something you can loot.
Or you can do the opposite if you don’t have flow seeds in stock, take one of each normal tree seed and the rest of your inventory full with furniture and when you try to pick up if it says pick up DONT cuz it will be a normal seed but if it says that you cannot pick it up it’s a flow seed so go put back your stuff in your chest and go pick it up! 
Ahh I didn't think of that, nice.

how many waterblock fertilizers do apple trees take in total?
OMG I had no idea you could have flow trees on your own plot! Pls explain how this happened 
Where do you even get Flow tree seeds from?
You have to ||finish the Temple of the Roots, and complete the Vault of the Roots bundles after that, which gives you a Gardener statue, it gives you tree seeds every IRL day, 25% chance of getting a flow seed||
How much gold does this yield per palia day
Is anyone having a problem with the prove your devotion: plant 5 trees? Its been more than weeks for me and I couldn't complete this quest. Is it still a bug?
Yeah it’s bugged
Are apple trees bugged. I swear mine take longer than 6 days to produce a second time
Is there some google doc breaking down which crops are best to pickle/seed?
Posted by @upper mist a few days ago
So just spam tomato?
is there a way to remove wring placed crops?
U can right click with hoe to destroy it. You wont get back the seed tho
thanx
Not sure why that’s your conclusion 
Never knew Jar Potato had a huge diff
Looks like the easiest maint and makes 42?
I have had my galdur for 4 days and 3 days in a row I got a flow seed
Ohhh yeah if you wanna do pickle + seeds for tomatoes! Apple jam does makes a lot of money over time though
I don't have apples unlocked yet. Just hit level 10 farming :p
Does anyone have a good farming layout with three apple trees 2 blue barries all water and weed free?
ohh i didn't read all weed free, well the apples and bloobs will be weed free
Wait really you can just use your hoe to remove it
This whole time I just waited it out
If I add starred apples to the preserves bin…. Will I have a better chance of getting starred Apple jam and more glow worms?
putting star crops in preserve or seeder will give starred final products (worth 50% more)
Though occassionally you will get regular seeds. Not sure why that happens but it causes the seeders to take up a space I am counting on for star seeds.
Also growing spicy peppers next to other crops as well as cotton both have quality increase effects
interesting. I was lagging and pushing buttons too fast earlier and instead of collecting a seed from a flow tree I accidentally picked it up. I put it back down but it didn't have a seed this time! after the next hour it had a water bar again and a few watering later it offered me a seed again. since it was a flow tree I'm glad that failsafe was in place
Hey guys, would you mind if I ask a question regarding blueberries and fertilizer?
I want to put "HarvestBoost Fertilizer" on my blueberries a day before they produce fruit so that I can increase my harvest quantity. The wiki states:
"The plant grows for 9 days, and then can be harvested. After the first harvest, it can be harvested again every three days for three more additional harvests (day 12, 15 and 18 after planting)."
Does this mean that I'll need to put down the fertilizer upon watering my blueberries the 8th time before it finally produces fruit on the 10th day?
Day 1: Seeds, Water
Day 2-7: Water
Day 8: Water, Fertilizer
Day 9: Harvest
Day 10: Water
Day 11: Water, Fertilizer
Day 12: Harvest
Day 13: Water
Day 14: Water, Fertilizer
Day 15: Harvest
Day 16: Water
Day 17: Water, Fertilizer
Day 18: Harvest
When do flowers grow? I planted them, make my garden afterwards and got off for bahari and when i come back fter 6am the garden growth and the flowers not. Do they have a differen time?
I'm not sure about the exact time but for me 2-3 palian days and they already grow
Did you water them? Flowers require at least one watering before they will grow, and in order to get seed from them you have to water an additional 2-3 times (I forget exactly)
Is there any crop layout with 4 blue berri bushes which is fully water weed free and fully harvest boost?
I don't need apples just 4 bb, alot of potatoes, some tomatoes, carrots, bokchoy and rice
does anyone have a layout with all crops?
yes i did. After this the second batch was timed exactly like the garden stuff. Maybe it is bugged. havent seen the chat since 3 days too
What is the fruit or vegetable thats most profitable by preverving them?
Apples
And blueberries
oh boy
Just reading up in the room, farming is a big topic, lol. Real quick question though; how many squares does the positive effect from the plant effect?
When you AFK farm, what are the rules? Do I need to be by my plot when it ticks 6AM? Do I just need to be logged into the game and anywhere when 6AM ticks? Do I need to visit my plot inbetween rotations (at least once a irl hour)? I don't need to water or collect weeds and I am growing mainly apple trees.
take a look at this and read the first comment, hope this helps ! https://www.reddit.com/r/Palia/s/X2ViEZbHnj
does a fully grown flow tree (on your plot) drop a seed? or is the only way to get flow seeds is from the gardener statue? also - sorry if this is the wrong channel for this question.
Thanks. I will read it in a sec.
Yes, each fully grown flow tree drops a seed like the regular trees
after it reaches Maturity stage (usually when you can not water it once time), then i think it is 4 or 5 more waterings and it will give you a seed.
ah, okay! i have a fully grown mature flow tree but it hadn’t dropped a seed yet. i’ll just continue to water it. thank y’all! 
Is there any reason why people would not want their garden watered? I went to someones plot and saw they had some unwatered things and i was like i'll do the nice thing and when i started watering I thought ugh why did i do that
Maybe they didnt do that on purpose 😭 i feel so bad now
i have one gardening square i use with the pumpkin decor and i’ve turned it into a pumpkin patch. i like how the weeds and growing potatoes make it look like i am growing pumpkins there. it’s solely for the aesthetic
Ah i hope i didnt do that for them and ruined something... my intrusive thoughts took over and i thought it was nice to do it, but i probably did something i shouldnt have done...
i understand, i am the same way when it comes to intrusive thoughts! i am sure it’s okay! they all grow back eventually 
Sometimes you don't want things watered so they don't grow to their next stage. For example when you have trees in different stages around your plot. Or you have stuff growing in your garden you are using simply for weeds and buffs but do not want them to fully develop so you don't accidentally harvest them (happens way too often, especially on a Switch). Stuff like that.
Am I correct in thinking that once you're level 50+ gardening a normal seed will still produce starred quality crop?
sorry if this is always asked, do i need to have harvest boost on for the duration of the grow cycle to work? or just the day it becomes harvestable? i feel like if i put it on apple tree 1 or 2 days before its ready i still only get 16 apples
is there a spreadsheet or something that shows the best crops as pickled?
i was told by a youtube NOT to throw apples or blueberries in the Preserve Jar. Is this true?
do U have a link for that spreasheet
I don’t see why we would not. Most of us use apple jam as our main money maker
Unfortunately not, but this was @upper mist’s so maybe they do!
it’s actually once you hit level 25 gardening, you will always harvest star quality crops
No, lvl 25 for star crops with star seeds, lvl 50 for star crops from regular seeds iirc 
i’m pretty sure it’s star crops from regular seeds once you hit level 25. i am not 50 yet and i don’t remember the last time i got non-star crops from regular seeds
https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/ Has anyone used this? I feel like I cant get the bonuses to work properly, or I am just not understanding how they work to begin with
hm, guessing thats a no...
wow I'm super curious why they'd say that. maybe they assume you're saving them for cake parties?
thx so much for this link. it helps so much. you are amazing for putting this together.
@upper mist i really wish we could grow Pumpkins. Make preserves. Make even Pumpkin Pies!!
That would be so lovely!!
How about pumpkin spice latte's
or even carve our own pumpkins for next halloween
🎃
anyone have any good garden layouts for newbies?
Yes pumpkin spice latte @ Xmas. It sounds like both of us should pull a ticket for great suggestions.
I got a few of those in my guide if you scroll down a bit! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bjqQGwzhW7wsIpSDoO3xCMwqbX7ZbsdsuuXmPEXCrjE/edit?usp=sharing
definitely 👀 I'm on it boss 
I just pulled a ticket and sent it just now.
tysm!
Sometimes it takes time for people to reply.😅
Sometimes things get buried.🥺
The bonuses are displayed as little icons in the top right corner of each item.
Perhaps sharing a screenshot of your layout, and describing the bonuses you'd like to achieve would help others help you. 🫰
Well I wouldn't write an essay on my issue if no one could help in the first place
can definitely help out! I completely missed your message myself, sometimes the chat goes too fast and it's dinnertime here so im all over the place O.o
Have you ever used the gardening planner I linked by any chance?
I even have it linked in my guide and I use it all the time!
I dont know that guide, personally
Literally everyone uses this planner in the #🌱│gardening channel, that’s why I linked you here before you rolled your eyes at me.
it's linked at the top of the gardening planner you linked 😄
suggestion send 
At any rate, I put apples next to blueberries to test if either of them would affect each others speed, and the day by day gives me the same time to harvest as they are set apart
ah yeah there's certainly some problems ingame atm, the growthboost is a bit bugged sometimes, S6 is still investigating this issue but they don't have a lot of logs to go from, so it would certainly be helpful if you could send your logs to them! at the bottom part here it explains how to find your logs! https://support.palia.com/hc/en-us/articles/15188202467476-Bug-Report-Best-Practices
I meant on the planner. Unless you mean the planner goes by the same in-game bug?
are you by any chance putting 1 blueberry next to 1 appletree? appletrees need to be touched by at least 3 slots of blueberrybush before the growthboost carries over to them!
Yeah I tried that too. 0 change in the day by day for the planner
Though that answers one question I had before
could you maybe share your link for the layout you're working on? 🧐
You mean export it?
when you click Save you can copy it's link!
You will notice day by day shows the first apples on day 12
But that is the same as if I placed only the apples with no blueberries
Hmm im not sure what's off on your side 🧐 on my side it shows the appletree gives it's first fruit on day 8 with 2 blueberries next to it, and on day 12 with only 1 blueberry next to it
So basically it's just not working for me
I dont get it, I'm not clicking anything else....
that's really odd indeed, especially since im not getting the same bug 🧐 might be worth it to send @frail escarp a message so he can maybe take an indepth look at this 🧐
(he created the planner)
Well you just tagged him, so I suppose he will see this no matter what....
Is there anything else you do besides plunk the fruits down on the grid on your end?
exactly haha 😄 but in case he doesn't, don't hesitate to send him a DM!
I don't do anything else I don't think 🧐 just working from your link + removing/adding back a blueberry 🧐
Thank you very much for the help at least
No problem!! Hopefully the mystery will be solved soon! 
If your wondering about the growth boost, apple needs 3 of a boost touching it to work
ie. 3 growth boost touching, 3 water retention, 3 weed prevention, 3 harvest boost
Ah, just to make sure, is the growth boost setting enabled? This defaults to false given how buggy growth boost works when I implemented it
So 1 apple and 1 blueberry will only boost the blueberry and not the apple, however 2 blueberries and 1 apple will boost both if they are all touching
Considering the apple is being touched by at least 3 plot worth of growth boost
Where do you find that setting?
No, we have 3 parts already touched, so that's not it
Nevermind, found the boost, didn't know you could scroll in settings
That fixed it! I guess the boost is off by default? Does your site use cookies?
It's usually off since it's buggy sometimes but you can click it on
Yeah, main settings should save. Crop settings do not
Ok cool, this should make crop planning make more sense now, thanks for building such a cool app
Glad it helps! Hope you have a better experience from here on 
Feel free to lmk any issue you face tho
(also ty @upper mist for the ping >:D)
Will do, thanks again everyone!
May be a dumb question but is there a limit to how many soil patches you can have on your plot? Wanted to know before I spent the coins.
You get 9 total
Thank you!!!
Does anyone have a farm setup that I could use 👀
Just got back into the game and not sure what to farm anymore
Seconding Miquella's question
if you check the media tab (like you would pins) there are a lot of images of layouts. should be able to find something you like
what’s the best thing to put into a glow worm farm (produced fastest or most worms, etc) or does it matter?
I put starred apple jam into mine.
And the time is always an hour, but the amount of worms you get depends on the food you put in. Same with the fertilizer.
How many worms do you need? I just dump all the meat from sernuk hunting in 4-5 bins. Get 1 worm per meat.
okay perfect ty
I garden a lot. But every time I plant blueberries (with nothing nearby and no fertilizer) all I get back are star quality berries. Anyone know what to do to stop this? I need regular quality berries.
If you are lvl 50, you'll never get regular back
Best way is to get it via zeki coins most likely
yeah like nart says if you're lvl 50 you can't get normal quality from gardening anymore. it's determined by whether you use star quality seeds (+50% chance of star crop harvest) and your gardening level (+2% chance of star crop harvest per level). if you wanted them for cooking you'll just have to use star quality instead
Can someone explain how best to maximize $ with farming?
I’d prefer a way that allows you to skip watering if possible.
Right now, I have 1 blueberry bush, 4 pepper bushes, and selling seeds for cotton potato and wheat
For 100% harvest boost and 100% watered, in each 3x3 square I do:
potato-cabbage-potato
wheat-rice-wheat
potato-cabbage-potato
Seed potato, rice, wheat, kimchi the cabbage.
Easy pattern to remember, low maintenance, high yield, and potato seeds process kinda slow so you’ll likely never end up with idle, full seeders if you check them at least once a day.
Also nice that you can lay out your plots however you like! A line, a cross, a square, individual spots… the bonuses are covered in each 3x3.
I got a whole list dedicated to this subject haha https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cDsOxSJSkODSEimSEZmmos2_5hOGJ1Typ4tXutjBI9I/edit?usp=sharing
everything takes 60 minutes to craft though, nothing is faster or slower than the other

we love you
and @spark reef If you need one you can always use one of mine ✨ just depends on what you're looking for 😄 I am currently running a bit of everything, this one is with weeds prevention https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/?layout=v0.2_DIM-111-111-111_CROPS-ORTBk.SW.SOP.SOBk-ORSpBkCrSpBBA-SpORSpBkW.SAACr-RWCrCAABkAA-BBAACb.HAABB-AABkAACCrWR-CrAAW.SBkSpROSp-ABBSpCrBkSpRO-BkOP.SOW.SBk.STRO and this is semi the same but instead of weeds prevention water retain https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/?layout=v0.2_DIM-111-111-111_CROPS-TWBkP.SRCBkTP-TWSpPCrSpBBA-SpT.HOSpPRAACr-RCrWPAACbAA-BBAACo.HpAABB-AACbAAPWCrR-CrAARPSpOT.HSp-ABBSpCrPSpWT-PTBkCRP.SBkWT but I also love this one a lot https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/?layout=v0.2_DIM-111-111-111_CROPS-BkAAWAARAA-ABBABBAWR-BkR.HBkAAAAAA-RBBWBBAAA-AAAAAAAAA-AAABBWBBR-AAAAAABkR.HBk-RWABBABBA-AARAAWAABk (the bok choy can be switched out for anything else basically)

I like to give it to Kennyata pretending Its something illegal I grew in my basement
Thank you I'll have a look later today! Have to head into work soon 😅
Cooking parties will always produce more $ per hour than garden, but the garden can be ‘idle/passive’ income. When you get apples, put them into preserve jars and then put apple jam into worm bins. This allows you to maximize the profit per crop, which is a limited resource. The preserve jar will make more income per apple and per hour than the worm bin does but you’ll run out of apples due to how slow they grow in the garden. So about 16 apple jars 2 tomato jars 1 corn jar 1 seed maker (rotate through the crops to replant) and 10 bins is a good baseline, with this layout:
Rice are the locations for weeds to grow/stay.
finally, my fiscal freedom
Where do I get soil from again?
You can buy it from Badruu
Thank you
Hello! I have some questions if you guys could help me
- How should I use the fertilizers?
-1.a Should I stack them?
-1.b Should I use it 1 day before growing? / When i plant them - How many Many Seed Makers/ Worm Farms should I have?
(i just started and i mainly farm tomatos) (I got 4 SM-4 WF)
1 - i always stack to the max (99) on the fertilizer that i'm using when i plant the seeds, that way i don't forget to do so and the fertilizer only really works if it's there for the full growth cycle of the crop
2 - how ever many crafters you need to process your garden, so can't really tell you that you need x amount. i have four seeders, 6 preserve jars, one glow worm and four reg worm farms down, but i also only harvest my apple trees and i'm in no need of gold in this game right now
With tomatoes, is it more gold efficient to turn tomatoes into seeds or buy seeds from gold
turning them into seeds you usually lose 22g ... but it's worth to get golden seed due to the fact that you have higher change of getting star crop.... after lvl 25 farming you will always get golden star crops from start seeds (as i heard)
but it's still worth in the long run to have 100~ golden star seeds so... i world take to gold lose, You get seed refunds aswell at times
Ok, I switched from onions to tomatoes to try to make enough money to expand my house, maybe I'll look up some stuff on how to maximize income from farming
this is probably the best layout i can think of for $$$ (while having symmetry). thoughts?. any1 have any better?
Im currently a big fan of this one (https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/?layout=v0.2_DIM-111-111-111_CROPS-ORTBk.SW.SOP.SOBk-ORSpBkCrSpBBA-SpORSpBkW.SAACr-RWCrCAABkAA-BBAACb.HAABB-AABkAACCrWR-CrAAW.SBkSpROSp-ABBSpCrBkSpRO-BkOP.SOW.SBk.STRO) 😄 I especially enjoy it because it's got all crops, but so far nothing beats the next one in earnings if you don't mind daily weeding and watering, hold up
bok choy can be switched out for anything on the second one
let me check my guide I might already have one already 😄
from the archives haha, is this what you're looking for? I can remake it quickly in the gardenplanner
https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/?layout=v0.2_DIM-111-111-111_CROPS-T.HBBP.HBBC.HBk.HT-WTP.HRBBPBB-P.ST.HBk.HWBBRBB-BBWBBRT.HP.HT-TBk.HPBBWBBR-TT.HP.HBBT.HBBBk.H-BBWBBRBk.HP.HT-RTP.SBBT.HBBBk.H-RWP.SBBT.HBBBk.H
or is it too many blueberries?
can also add some blueberries to a design like this, I have a variant of this one with 2 blueberry bushes https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/?layout=v0.2_DIM-111-111-111_CROPS-WTBRPBPTP-BWTBRPR.HPR.H-R.HTWTPRPT.HP-TR.HTR.HBBTBB-PTPRWRPTP-BBTBBR.HTR.HT-PT.HPRPTWTR.H-R.HPR.HPRBTWB-PTPBPRBTW
just depends on what you're looking for 😄
For a beginner player, is growing a ton of tomatoes a good way to get EXP / money?
I don't have enough money for more garden plots to pull off these garden layout schemes I'm seeing online
I'd advice to go for something like this; that way your tomato output is boosted to 3 per harvest! Maybe even switch out the potato for cotton to get that starquality harvest for even more gains for early levels
this works great too
Thank you! I will be stealing that because I also want some cotton for crafting purposes
go nuts 😄
if you need even more cotton this works too! And again the potato can be switched out for rice (tho if you do, be sure to companionplant! So where there's 2 potatoes next to eachother, if you switch those to rice, be sure to put the rice next to a wheat or corn for max output
I'm no good at theory crafting so I've just been growing a ton of onions until now
I'll save that too, thanks!
this looks nice! TY, anything that i can repalce the cotton with? or not really
oop, deleted my pic cuz this is gardening and not really where it belongs 😄
you could replace the cotton basically with anything else! if you switch them to potato or nappa cabbage you won't have to water your garden, if you replace them with bok choy, onion or carrot you won't have weedgrow on most of your plot, but then I would maybe recommend something like this instead to get the full weedprevention
I wonder how many people water crops that don't need watering, just to move the crop placement back into place.
This is my current crop setup, I like how it maintains itself for the most part.
I like the look of this because as you said, it has everything. I saw you posted a water retention version of it too last night. I have a question - do you need to use the fertilizers mentioned in the top right every day? Or is that not mandatory
Ah I need to wait some 2.5 ish hours for an extra apple seed anyway 🤣 welp time to go do something else and come back to this tomorrow
at lvl 25 do you get all star crops from star seeds, and at lvl 50 you get all star crops from both non-star and star seeds?
Pretty sure my gardening is between 25 and 30. Can’t remember the last time I got non star quality crops, regardless of quality of the seeds
Interesting. I think I will go buy some regular seeds and check it out. My gardening is at 210, so for sure it will come out star if that's the case.
Though for some reason my seeders occassionally give me regular seeds, especially for rice.
I will post the results in 3, 4 and 5 hours (rice, tomatoe and corn)
Ping me when you do
I took a pic of the conversation so I don't forget.
This is correct. Every gardening level is a 2% increased chance that you will get starred crops when harvesting. Starred Seeds are a 50% increased starred chance. So level 25 gardening is a 50% chance plus 50% from the starred seeds. At level 50 gardening it is a 100% chance for starred crops
thank youuuu
i’ve heard both lvl 25 and 50 for both “producing all star crops” but i wasn’t 100% sure on the difference until now
Youre welcome
I havent had unstarred crops for many months now. Even though I would like them to help others who request them
Ohh you don't have to use the fertilizer if you don't have it! I just put them there for the minmaxers 😄
yeah I don't know why everyone keeps saying it's from lvl 50, in my guide I also said somewhere around lvl 30, then it boils down to 99% or something so you get like once a month maybe a non-star if you're unlucky, but other than that around that time it's always starquality produce even from non-star seeds
that's an extra drop you get as a bonus, it's not instead of the star quality seed output, it's just a bonus
it's earlier, as of gardening lvl 30 somewhere around that time you get 99.99% star quality harvest from non-star seeds
@harsh gorge the first batch of 4 regular rice all yielded starred rice. I will get back to you once the corn and tomatoes are done.
LOL, and if @upper mist said it, it is law !! And with my gardening so high, it will all come out starred.
So it isnt a 2% starred chance for each gardening level?
Because that would mean that I was misinformed
as far as I know it's lvl 25 until you won't have to stack the qualityboost anymore to get the full boost, and then lvl 30-35 somewhere it tips over towards even non-star seeds giving the full boost for about 99.99% of the time, with a rare exception of 1 non-star occasionally, though I'm a bit fuzzy on the actual percentage per level because im not a dataminer so it might just as well be somewhat of a guideline up until then but yeah as of somewhere between lvl 30-35 it's not an issue anymore. I talked to Aisen about this and he confirmed something about lvl 36 being the 100% full on by his calculations
just lvl 50 is way too late is what I know 100% foolproof
did I remember that right @frail escarp ?
(he might be asleep now though)
Good to then. Thank you for your information
Sorry I can't give the exact answer 😂 but yeah this is as far as I got with testing things manually 😄
does anyone know the most profitable layout that includes apple trees that come out star quality? 
I mean, most profitable, Im not sure, but if you put a cotton in the middle of my current setup, you get a full qualityboost for the appletrees at least (pre gardeninglvl 25 be sure to also use a starquality seeds though), with some moving I could make that happen for the blueberries too if you wish. If you're after gardening level 25 just a starquality seed is enough for the full quality boost though so you could change the middle cotton/possible cotton next to the blueberries back into their original crop again.. https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/?layout=v0.2_DIM-111-111-111_CROPS-ORTBk.SW.SOP.SOBk-ORSpBkCrSpBBA-SpORSpBkW.SAACr-RWCrCAABkAA-BBAACb.HAABB-AABkAACCrWR-CrAAW.SBkSpROSp-ABBSpCrBkSpRO-BkOP.SOW.SBk.STRO But yeah it depends on what you're looking for ofc! I guess you could also just plant this one but instead of rice/wheat you'd plant cotton (can also make the alterations for you if you want!) https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/?layout=v0.2_DIM-111-111-111_CROPS-BkAAWAARAA-ABBABBAWR-BkR.HBkAAAAAA-RBBWBBAAA-AAAAAAAAA-AAABBWBBR-AAAAAABkR.HBk-RWABBABBA-AARAAWAABk
Does anyone have a 100% water and 100% weed prevention layout that includes apples?
100% water and weed, with harvest boost on the apple trees only (i only harvest the apple trees to turn into jam then into worm farms)
you can also substitute one of the doubled crop (bok choy/tomatoes) for the missing crop buff (carrot/potatoes) to get more crops for cooking if you want
https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/?layout=v0.2_DIM-111-111-111_CROPS-TOAPCATOA-AATAACbAAT-BkTBkCCbCBkTBk-TOTPCPTOT-AAAAAAAAA-BkTBkCCbCBkTBk-OTOCPCOTO-TAAPAATAA-ABkTACCbABkT I made one too 😄 ofc on the entire garden could be used harvestboost but its not really necessary if you can't shovel that together with your wormfarms
ofc the nappa's can be switched for potato and the bok choys for onion if you'd prefer that but I thought to make some variety because it's not completely mirrored
why doesn't my apple tree have growth boost if i have a blueberry on either side of it? according to this, both my blueberries and my apple trees should affect each other, but when i press G in game, they don't have any boosts
How do you get speedy grow fertilizers?
Apples need 3 of any boost to work so one of your apples has 4 to give the boost while the other only has 2
Easiest way to explain is putting sweets in glow farms
Ex. Sweet leaf, cake
ah, so i would need another blueberry on the other side as well.. guess i have to give up planting peppers:/
😥do what now?

If you're looking to have every crop besides cotton, it just needs 4 water and 4 weed fertilizer
nah i just like peppers cause i cook with them so much but i'm mainly going for apples and potatoes. just wanted some speed and to not water so much. but blueberries are nice to put into preserves
Glow farms is a type of crafter that allows to to obtain glow worms and fertilizer depending on what you feed it. If you use any sort of "sweet" food such as sweet leaf, petit cake, celebration cakes, it'll provide you with glow worms and speedy fertilizer
Ahh ok
Can any smart people hmu with a garden design that has at least one apple tree, at least one blueberry bush, and self waters / weed prevents?
I am lazy but I need some apples and blueberries
Would two apple trees and two blueberries work for you. And do you want all crops?
yes that would and sure! that would be awesome
if you can make that work with self watering/weeding you are a magician
This is what I have. I am sure that I could make a better one or someone else could, but never the less this is what I have
The only plant that is not weed protected is the Tomato at the bottom right
tysm!!!
Youre welcome
anyone have AFK farm layout that consists of at least cotton, apple and blueberry??
Is it possible to get more than 9 soil?
No, but maybe in the future 🤞

OK apple tree harvest boost question: I'm gardening 100+ and yet I still have no idea how this works. I fertilize daily but at some point the trees don't take up the fertilizer. do they only need it during the pre-fruit phase? or is it one daily til fruit then one per fruiting?
Yep, mostly! It supposedly reaches 99% at level 37 and >100% at level 38. In regards to @digital tapir though, the planner's formula is based on the 2% per level hypothesis people have. It reaches earlier because there's also a presumed 25% base chance for a crop to yield star quality.
That said, the garden planner's formula is debatable and isn't verified by any hard concrete evidence. It's highly based on anecdotal experience and individual reports. So far, the current implementation hasn't had anyone report any noteworthy deviations from it.
Now that we know for sure that after level 30 all normal seeds give starred results. Is there any reason to keep x number of star seeds bags in reserve? If I wasn't such a pack rat I would have more storage space. We need Gold Chests with storage of 50,000.
Just got my first apple tree planted. These things take forever to yield a harvest o.o
it depends on what fertilizer you use vs what adjacent crops there are around your appletrees. If they have qualityup (cotton, spicy pepper) adjacency, they won't absorb the qualityup fertilizer for example
Is there a way to untill the tiles?
not that I know of unfortunately 😦 Gonna have to wait until they do it by themselves, if I remember correctly its 3 real life days
I'm getting pretty annoyed at dumping 99 fertilizer on something and turn around and it's all gone
And then when I plant four apple trees at the same time and 99 fertilizer at the same time and I log back in and one of them has sprouted, lol.
I come back after another tick and the second one has sprouted and then the other two take two more ticks before they even sprout. How is that even possible?
Anyone have a good garden layout for the most profit?? I have been avoiding gardening as much as possible.
I’ve looked at layouts on Pinterest but I don’t understand the water retention/weed prevention etc.
oops sorry I only use harvest boost
Oh then it depends on if you also planted rice/corn/wheat if your harvestboost fertilizer will get absorbed or not, if you didn't plant those maybe you added multiple fertilizer?
Thanks, i’ll look into it later when i get back home
I think the Palia wiki says 48 hours, but it could be wrong
oo thats slightly better!! Lets hope the wiki is right 
this is my current layout
Not sure if gardening is the right thread but is there a way to differenciate the flower seeds and the flowers? Both seem to have the same value and its a bit annoying to pic both from storage to see which on eis which
I think the flower seeds have the little dirt at the base! And flowers don’t
in their preview image in the inventory
Is it best to sell all your crops after a harvest or should I keep them?
this is the first somewhat simple pattern ive seen for a good profit, thank u!! :D
this one looks great too omg
Just noticed that trees have fertilizer boosts
Im curious if anyone has a garden that can beat this profit avg using preserves or seed makers :o
raw avg is 3480 daily chucking everything into seed makers
if i dont play at all , just plant stuff , water then come back in whatever an ingame day is (by using an alarm on my phone to come back in enough time) , will they still grow while im offline? if yes , what is the time it takes for a full in game day?
it takes one hour irl for a full palia day. 6am palia time (when crops grow) happens at the 15 of the hour (so next 6am is going to be in about 45 minutes). if you are going to log in every hour, the crops should still grow with the normal growth time
anyone got a layout that has all crops but prioritises for jams and kimchi?
is that a kind of "tick" for the crops total day growth count? for example if i plant and finnish watering all my crops by 5 am , in a tiny bit , at 6 am , they will already gain a day full of growth? (im asking if i am to plant crops and if i see the time i want to know if i should hurry to plant them before 6 am or not)
and vice versa... if i really forget or im out far gathering stuff/questing etc , and i water all my crops at 7 am , will they lose the day of progress because they lost the time of the "tick", right?
if you plant and water at 5am, at 6 you will need to water again for that day/hour (i am unsure if the 5am planting counts for one of the growth days though). but the 6am watering will count towards the growth day so you can do something else for that hour. if you miss the following 6am (hanging out in bahari or off doing irl things) as long as sometime during the hour you take care of the crops it will count (this probably doesn't make much sense, i'm not saying this right).
so, technically if you can water and tend to your garden in a 5 minute time frame, if you show up at 5am, water/weed, then wait until 6am to again water/weed you will be set for both of those hours (the previous one and the new one) (side note - this is why i use water retain crops, one and done)
Anyone have a 2x3 farm layout with 100% all the stats is that possible?
you can't get full buff coverage on every crop no matter what size your garden plot is. the best you can get is three stats 100%, and that's only using one of the fertilizers
The problem with this layout is that you'd have to make 604 bok choy seeds in just 4 hours to sustain this profit; which is impossible with only a max of 30 seedmakers (without even concidering you might also have some sawmills and smelters for example, never even getting to 30 seedmakers)
i have 30 seedmakers and it makes me a pretty good profit w/ minimal effort, but this is true
(i got to a point where i just started buying planks/ore bars bc its cheaper in cost than time)
It's a very pretty pattern though, I can't stop staring at it
i must say it isnt mine, i got it from a yt vid a while back when they first introduced bok choy xd
i think the youtuber who showcased that pattern shows up in this discord every once in a while
hehehe
speak and he shall appear
though bok choy preserves are still worth more than seeds, concidering the max of 30 crafters
i thought one bok choy gave 4 seeds, which when sold give 88 gold (for those 4 seeds) compared to the 1:1 preserve jars which only give 67 gold
It does but the process time takes FOREVER sadly. So in terms of gold per hour the preserves beat it. But the ceiling is higher on seeds. Depends on your play style for which one you want to go for. Money quick or Money value.
i guess you're looking at the time though
yeah it's about how you can't craft 6 hours worth of seeds in 4 hours basically if my braincells are still awake
let me make it sound worse....it's 3 hahaah
so if you look at the time you have vs what you can do with that time, preserves win from seeds
oh yeah I based the math on the 4 hours listed on the layout they linked
not on the bokchoy growing days like I maybe should have done to not cause confusion lol 😂
but then again, im half asleep lol
but they needed to make 604 bokchoy seeds in 4 hours to keep up with it
and then theres still the ~300 output of rice and wheat they can't even process at all
honestly, if it was my layout, i would say screw the rice/wheat and let them stay there just pick the bok choy, and yeah, i know i'd leave gold on the ground for doing it that way, it's what i'm doing with my 4 apple trees, just harvesting them and leaving the other crops
I mean wheat and rice are both more worth your time than bokchoy seeds
though bokchoy preserves win from rice and wheat seeds
this is the bok choy processing facility
So yes, the layout when looking at processed outcomes is bad on a per time basis. The layout does better the less you play. So if you work or sleep for most of the day, the processing time is negligible and has the highest ceiling. Bok Choy has a very big scaling problem for playtime…..kinda. SoonTM
1 bok choy makes 60 gold in 72 minutes as seeds. 1 bok choy makes 45 gold in 36 min (or 90 in 72) as preserves. why are you doing seeders?
i don’t play as much anymore which is why i switched to it!
seeders are more practical for me because i like to switch what i’m doing every once in a while to do other crops for cake / cooking parties. having 30 preserve jars on my plot is inconvenient + the wheat and rice can’t process in them. it’s just easier to do seeders for me
you still gotta empty the processors once every 19 hours though but that is relatively doable if you don't get those extra non-star drops that clog up the output
what would you suggest as better?
hi, one question, after doing preservers do you use it in worm machine? or directly sell them?
directly sell them is what I do because there's better options for the worm machines, but you can judge that here for yourself 😄 https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cDsOxSJSkODSEimSEZmmos2_5hOGJ1Typ4tXutjBI9I/edit#gid=1206330854
thanks!
cotton seeds is what I would suggest instead of bok choy
your seedmakers will need emptying every 12 hours though in a perfect world without extra non-star seed drops clogging up the output
but at least they would need way less seedmakers to get to even higher gains than bok choy seeds would reach, so you might still get to processing some of that wheat and rice as well
hmm i’ll try that and let you know!! i’m taking a break from bok choy atm to get a few apples for recipes and such
Im curious for your findings if you do 😄
me too. i still have 1000+ bok choy i haven’t processed, so maybe i’ll split em up half ways and see which i prefer to process
ooo, time for science ✨ 😄
at least my math would indicate you'd make almost twice the profit
on only the difference between bok choy and cotton alone, without concidering that cotton takes less seedmakers to process so you'd also get more gains from the wheat and rice
damn!!!
i’ll def plant the cotton next and see what happens 
i’ll probably stick to it cuz i need fabric anyway for decorating
Is it best to sell all your crops after you harvest or keep certain ones for preserves?
its always better to process them
theres a spreadsheet somewhere here that shows whether seed makers or preserve jars are better
So with the 55 slots for cotton in the layout, 20 seeders will process all of that in the 5 hours it takes to grow. So if you’re playing a lot you will be able to process it all constantly. But if you plan to do other things besides play Palia in your day, Bok choy will run all night until you check it in the morning to reset all and continue the money printer. Just depends on how much time you spend playing per day. Both are viable.
can someone confirm if this actually works and boosts its growth 
i suspect that also works on flowers since you can water them
Not sure. It was default. I pressed examine at my garden and popped these up.
i thought you applied them! well, that's interesting
things are getting out of control over here
I think my no weeds, no watering, buffed apple trees are not ticking as they should be. I visited them every hour and it has been at least 12 hours since the last time I got apples and it should be every 6.
Are weeds now affecting adjacent trees/vegs?
So I decided to test it. I removed all the weeds from the other plants (using the weeds on plants I won't harvest method) and I went to buy some no weed fertilizer to test out my theory at 8AM server time, after the last tick to make sure. When I got back at 10AM, my farm was full of weeds on all my apple trees. So are we getting more than 9 weeds but we aren't seeing them if you don't remove any? It would explain why none of my apple trees gave any fruit. Anyone else experience this?
why do these crops constantly shift half a square over, ugh
That has been happening to me too but only if I am on my Switch.
i might have? i tried changing my layout to do weed plots (apples, napa, tomato, rice and corn), but the apple trees didn't seem to grow
seems to do with weeds, but watering them even for just a tick seems to reset them
Mine moves, combine. Triggers ocd badly
ya
I have a no water necessary layout and pull weeds every day after 6am in game before the next tick, and mine has recently been having a couple of plants that say they needed watering so idk what's happening with gardening.
The larger crops like apples, blueberries and peppers have been doing that forever now.. but if you tip your watering can over them (you don't even actually need to water them) they will go back into place. It bothers me too
I run on PC and mine do it all the time.
You are correct. I just tested that. Amazing. Thanks for the tip.
So much for my "just log in and dont worry about it" apple garden
does anyone have any decent layouts with every crop? i see so many that dont have cotton but i use a lot
I have question, seems my plants goes back in growth stages when I gather weeds around ? Is this bug or visual glitch? Attaching video
About to find out if my apple trees will start growing again ....
Yeap, they started to grow again. So gardening is bugged.. yay
And how to spend the next 13 hours testing combos to see what will work and what still bugs.
Now I wonder if 9 weeds is the visual cap and not the actual cap and your plot can have more invisible weeds that will prevent your garden from growing any.
i have the same experience, it's so frustrating. i've had apple trees with no weeds but adjacent plants had weeds and the apple trees would not grow. i have no idea why this happens.
How did you get them to grow again?
I removed the second set of weeds during a single cycle.
Apparently we can only see 9 weeds but invisible ones keep growing on other crops. I ended up with 18 knapweeds
So now I am trying carrots in between my apples and hydratepro, and I will see what happens
i have full weed block on my apple trees rn so i will pick the weeds and let you know my experiment results
Do fertilizers on apple trees use up 9 per cycle?
I have never used any, but I am testing for a workaround this bug.
i picked all 9 weeds on the plot, left to kilima and came back immediately, got 6 more weeds that were growing on adjacent crops
Yeah, either we never knew about this or this is a new annoying bug. I am testing it with carrots and see what happens. If I do not need to water, than the apple trees never ticked. First I need some weeds to show up.
I have a row of corn and rice to hold the weeds when they show up
I got this one with 3 cotton, I don't know if that's enough for you though! https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/?layout=v0.2_DIM-111-111-111_CROPS-TWCP.SRBkCo.STP-TWSpPCrSpBBA-SpT.HOSpPRAACr-RCrWPAACbAA-BBAACo.HpAABB-AACbAAPWCrR-CrAARPSpOT.HSp-ABBSpCrPSpWT-PTCo.SBkRP.SCWT
if i unlocked Glow worm farms should i fully repalce the Worm farms?
do i even need QualityUp fertilizer in the long run?
or normal worms
there are specific fish for worms, and specific ones for glow worms. so if you need a fish that only bites for worms, you'll still need them. fertilizer personally i don't use at all, i just sell them
I would like to use Quality fertilizer till lvl 25 farming (after that i heart everything is starred from star seeds) Then to have speed & harvest boost permanentlly on my crops so idk
how long would it take a saw mill to do 100 wood
amm... there is the timer written on it... so you do that x100
both have their uses and their better combinations! I can send you a spreadsheet in a bit with all the things that go in them
i have it saved somwhere + the same info it's on wiki... i want the POV of a end-game so i do it the right way first
after gardening lvl 25 you basically don't need it anymore! But the normal wormfarm can give harvest fertilizer as a secondary fertilizer so it can still be useful, apart from the worms for fishing
op top of that sometimes you get more monetary gains from the wormfarm
yah i can swap it when i need normal/glow worms i assume, but overall glow worm farms are superior i do say myself
i do cooking partys for coins, nw
depends on what fish you're trying to catch
ok im getting fuzzy on your question if you already seem to know everything 😂
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cDsOxSJSkODSEimSEZmmos2_5hOGJ1Typ4tXutjBI9I/edit?usp=sharing anyway here's the list, in case anyone is interested to learn about worm/glowworm farm outputs
I just take this for apples money making 
My apple trees will absolutely not grow, and it's been nearly 2 weeks. There's no weeds on them, but there are 9 weeds on surrounding plants. In fact, all my crops reversed their growth stage. I watched my garden as it hit 6am; the apple trees grew saplings and used up some growth boost fertilizer, and my tomatoes became harvestable . When I logged back in the next morning, the saplings were gone, the tomatoes weren't harvestable, but the fertilizer was still used up.
yikes, it sounds like you got the same bug as me a while ago, is probably very useful if you'd send your logs to S6!!! If you scroll down here a bit it will tell you how to get your logs https://support.palia.com/hc/en-us/articles/15188202467476-Bug-Report-Best-Practices
especially the weeds around the appletree is what Ive seen people talk about earlier today as well
Thanks. I went ahead and sent the bug report along with the game logs as well. Let's hope they get this fixed.
anyone got a layout that contains all crops but prioritises jams and kimchi?
Oh Mighty Goddess of the Greens, is there any fertilizer you would recommend? I keep reading on now so many fail and I need one so I can have the 3 buffs I need (no weeds, harvest increase, no watering). I heard that HydratePro causes the soil to bug, or is that a bug you either have or don't have. I had the 9 extra invisible weeds bug for the last two days. Just noticed it today after 12 hours with no apples after the first harvest. Which one is worth the gold and is reliable for apple trees specifically?
Honestly, with all the bugs flying about currently, I end up rather selling my fertilizer instead of using it.. x) I used to be a big fan of harvest fertilizer though because its so easily aquirable (through the wormfarm as secondary fertilizer and the glow worm farm as main fertilizer), but right now I basically focus on weedblock through crop adjacency, and just try to weave enough rice/wheat/corn through it for the harvestboost..... I feel like currently crops adjacency works better than fertilizer 
though thats also debatable for growthboost, because for me neither crop adjacency nor fertilizer is working for me in that case
what setup are you running currently?
I really need to take detailed notes on how many apples I get from each harvest. I am not sure the harvest boost from corn/rice is working either. I will harvest the corn/rice after the first apple harvest and see how many apples I get the following one. I was leaving the corn/rice crops at full growth so they would keep all 9 weeds but then the visible weeds bug happened. Could that have been because they were at full growth? Should I leave those crops unwatered at a particular stage so they can be my weed prevention? (I don't really need either for cooking, I have tons of food laid out on an empty plot}. And yes, I did read your post about crops and fertilizer. But with so many bugs flying around (lol), I wanted to verify how things stand.
it should be 16 without harvestboost and 24 with, for one tile crops it should be 2 and 3, and 4 tile crops 6 and 9
Im not really versed in knowing when what bug could occur, but I have heard a lot of people today about weeds giving some sort of bug, even with crops growing backwards
So the harvest boost from adjacent crops is working because I consistently get 144 apples out of 6 apple trees.
that's my experience as well
And yeah, the crop growing backwards concerns me.
If your whole garden gets out of wack though, it might certainly be valuable for S6 if you could send them your logs - at the bottom of this page they explain how to get your logs https://support.palia.com/hc/en-us/articles/15188202467476-Bug-Report-Best-Practices
it's just such a confusing bug they got a whole lot of work cut out for them to try to pinpoint where it's coming from, so all the logs are helpful for sure
I will experiment with the weed bug and crops at different stages. I think S6 might be a bit tired of my reporting bugs. I want to help this game so I send in a lot of bugs reports and issues with my plot.
especially logs I think you can never send too often in terms of gardening bugs
so I wouldn't be concerned with how often you send bugreports, thats super helpful ✨ !
But yeah normally, your crops shouldn't bug out if you just leave them there when grown. They should still give out their boosts to adjacent crops... but I too have noticed fully grown tomatoes/potatoes that I didn't harvest for one day suddenly not keeping my appletrees watered
so yeah something in that area is definitely a bit confused atm
I wonder if its because of the courtyard? I have mine in my courtyard, I wonder if others having this issue do too.
Ive been having this bug since a while before the courtyards got added so I don't think the courtyard is causing it at this point, but who knows, it might give it an extra wonk
Spreadsheet time, I need to set up a control layout with crops at different stages.
✨ Science Time ✨ 😄 if you find anything interesting I'd love to hear it 😄
I got a layout going with some crops on adjacency and some crops on fertilizer to try to keep up to date with testings but it's been quite stable for a while in terms of bugs, and I think I got a lot less bugs since I stopped using fertilizer tbh, and I too think it does really help to stay on top of your garden and harvest/replant everything immediately when things are done
but some bugs seem to have a mind of their own
the other day I put 8 days worth of fertilizer on an appletree only to see it disappear the next day
(I wanted to turn my layout one quarter lol but accidentally harvested things around it before the appletree was done too
)
For apple trees, every 9 fertilizer equals only 1 day correct? Since it has 9 squares? Fertilizers confuse me because of the RNG and when it ticks (as if I have time to keep count of how many days my apple trees have). They should add that to the stuff you see when you press G, at what day stage is your crop.
yeah so I put 9x8 on the appletree = 72 fertilizer gone after 1 ingame day 
then I was like ok this is not worth it 😂
That is so sad. S6, less content updates and more bug fixes please.
My plan is: first row, seeds only no watering; second row, first stage no watering: third row second stage no watering; and fourth row full growth (for rice and carrots). For corn I will continue this idea for each stage. Good thing I am not doing tomatoes.
Is it wrong that I am excited about doing this? LOL. I already finished everything else, so this keeps me coming back more often than every 2 hours to water my crops.
@upper mist Last question until I get my data from this. SpeedyGro, does that need to be applied the growth day before the next apple harvest, or does it apply it automatically for its next harvest batch? And assuming it all doesn't disappear in one cycle, would 36 speedygro fertilizer per tree take care of an entire 30 day cycle?
as far as I know from my adventures with a non-bugged speedygro, it should be applied every day until its next harvest. So in theory, the last 3 harvest cycles of an appletree should take 4 days indeed (4x9 fertilizer is indeed 36)
but to have enough for their entire 20 days of growth (on growthboost), that should be a total of 180 speedygro per tree
the first harvest on growthboost should take 8 days, the other 3 harvests should take 4 days
without growthboost the first harvest takes 12 days, and the other 3 harvests should take 6 days (for a total of 30 days, would mean 270 speedygro)
its a costly endeavor for sure 😂
Wow, that is the best explanation I have read so far. And it makes complete sense. Now to see if it works. Luckily I have 8 glow worm farms so getting the fertilizer is super easy
I will miss the extra gold. But it will be good to know for when I need extra apples.
it will be very useful for sure!! And I bet S6 would be super grateful to see those logs too 👀
if you need some extra speedygro I still got some in storage too!
A think I sell about 2k of speedygro every day. But thanks for the offer. I have enough since this morning to fill up all 6 trees. I will send the logs to S6 after all this.
I mean 8 glow worm farms, those certainly do the trick 😄 but in terms of money loss I thought it might be nice 👀 but yeah at some point if times get dire you can always reach out 😄
the chapaa's thank you for your noble efforts 
I think I have 4, 2 of each 🤔 I used to have 4 of each I think but now I mostly use them as storage 😂
KEK!! LOLS!!
🤣
@upper mist Im 50k away from 300k!! what do I spend it on?
ZEKI COINS 
Or, more rooms for your house 😄
but my house is a tiny 1 room U start game wiff. I also need more land
or ofc, more recipes 🤔 I don't know what you have unlocked 😄
so first choice more land to build on or another room?
Ooo then I would definitely say invest in some nice rooms and crafting licences 😄
I think you buy more land through renown 🤔
so why not both 😄
No GIFs here, I'm sad now 
now im sad. I was going to do the Why not both little girl meme. From Old El Paso commerical. Now Im sads!!
I vote for crafting licenses, more crafting means more money, means you can buy more rooms and furniture to decorate.
but still, 300k is a lot
though yeah for future earnings, do also buy the crafting licences! 
@upper mist I just want to be able to make a 2nd Story. Heck we can have 2 stories in The Sims 4!!
👀
Buying one of everything in the Undergroud will set you back about 400k
whats coming? a 2nd story? bc I want one!! heck even The Sims 4 has 2nd story
hey Arenvanya, do you have any inside info on the 2nd story building? Is it an addon like Bay Windows or a totally new Harvest House type (cause 9 is not enough)?
It’s a new house blueprint, so it’s a totally new building
See.. level up your home, that means upgrade. But we can't assume anything with S6. I recall "you can fill your plot with flowers" actually meaning, only 500.
but does that address a 2nd story coming?
I mean that harvesthouse looks awefully big to me 
Blueprint means entirely new version, so it should be a new building + its add-ons. We’ll see soon!
but with those buildingblocks coming you'll definitely be able to build your own 2nd story 😄
and I see windows on the 2nd floor
goes into a trance I see many sleepless nights spending countless hours building a giant castle ...
IKR I'm SO excited for those buildingblocks 
I am terrified !!!
gotta say though if that new housing blueprint is Not a 2nd story, I'm going to riot 
And I will join you. I don't have enough room on any of my plots to move my existing rooms to replace the Harvest House with a new one.
It better work like the Bay Windows
that would be epic 👀
just attach it to the roof 
Exactly. An attach the front porch like a fireplace or stairs.
Now the inside stairs.. no clue on how that would work.
hopefully we'll be able to configure the place of the inside stairs indeed 👀
I do worry on how the blocks will count towards the Decoration limit.
And we need to be able to move the order of our plots. So if we make our last plot our we main plot, we can move its location to the top.
Who do I need to bribe to get some answers !!!
believe me, I tried 😩
Did you do the hair brush back? The shy smile? The drop and snap?
Personally I used the sly smile and fingers through my hair. Works great on guys.
!! 🤣
I mean I tried to convey it through text as well as I could
but theres only so much awkwardness I can take as for sending hairbrush back and drop and snap videos to the S6 devs to try to persuade them to tell more 
hairflips do work better in real life for sure
They do work hard, don't they. And now with a smaller staff. That is why I am happy to drop lots of dough for the outfits. This game is a ton of fun. Though Cozy isn't what I would call it.
Can we say "Star Ruby"
Definitely! I feel their workplace couldn't be better described tthen with:
How would you categorize the game then, if not as cozy? 😮
gosh, I'd do anything for just a regular emerald at this point 
never even found 1 O.o
What? I was about to tell you to Request one, I have a few, but you haven't gotten one. I have noticed that Cooper Ore is harder to find since Steam release. Before you couldnt walk around Kilima without finding a ton of it.
Though the chances are supposed to be higher for large ore nodes, I found most of my star gems in the smaller one. Especially the star ruby. Not a baby palium but the regular small ones.
yeah its horrible lol
I mean I don't mind there being more stone around because I can never have enough of it....... but mannnn just 1 non-star emerald 
I find it easier to farm ore around the time the flow grove spawns. A lot of players are over in Bahari Bay.
that's super smart, I might use that tip 
It is also the best time to use an Ore Compass in Bahari Bay when mining for palium. I wish Ore Compasses were easier to craft. Rather ironic, you need to farm cooper for silver ore, to make a compass to farm another ore. They need to make a Palium Compass, that only shows where palium nodes are located.
that palium compass is certainly high up my list of things I'd love to see eventually!!
I understand their logic for why we aren't getting more soil blocks. But could we get decorative ones? So we can grow fruit and vegetables just for display purposes.
The game isn’t allowing me to plant any seeds on my soil blocks. I’ve tilled the soil and everything and I’ve even moved the soil to see if there was a glitch. Anyone else having this issue?
how does this quest work ? (the one with growing 5 trees) , these are the trees i planted since the quest and their stages... i think the line behind is fully grown up
am i supposed to plant the apple trees from gardening lvl 10 for this quest?
@upper mist I tested them and so far no issues with apple trees growing. I have 3 crops at every stage of growth. So far I only have 5 knapweeds so I will wait until I get all 9 knapweeds to see if it gets affected after that.
didn't know where to ask this... anyone know what to put in glow worm farms to create the most harvest boost fertilizer? i need a TON

ty!!!
They will be considered fully mature once they no longer accept any water and give the message "collect seed." 
you can download mine and use the filters if you like, might be easier to find what youre looking for that way https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cDsOxSJSkODSEimSEZmmos2_5hOGJ1Typ4tXutjBI9I/edit#gid=1206330854
so helpful, ty!!
in the eventual future we get even more crops do you think well get more growing fields?
the super big ones didnt accept water anymore but there was no "collect seed" message, maybe i need to wait 1 extra day?
Mhm sometimes mine will do that as well
when I wait a bit more usually they will ask for water again then I'll get the seed message.
i think we would just get more recipes with specific crops. Or just more recipes with "any vegetable" since there will be a bigger variety of crops to choose from to plant. I vote for specific dishes... theres gotta make later level quests harder somehow 😛
ahh i see , well i went to sleep. Im sure theyll ask for more water in the morning
Yeah just keep checking the water meter until ya get that message, then it should be okay. If not, you need to submit a ticket to Support 
ohh about the water meters....
no water meters were showing up because the trees were too big , i just did my 6 am routine and noticed there were no bars, but there were the sounds of the tree beeing watered and rhe sound of when it became full of water too
I have noticed once mine start to get to the larger stage, sometimes I need to space them out a bit more so they aren't touching in order to get the water meter to show back up. You may want to try that and see for the next watering cycle?
i suppose? i just wanna be able to grow more crops though, specific ingredient dishes are fine, ie i hardly grow chillis but i did grow some to when a friend can play try to complete the spicy food achievements and such.
but i more want a 4x4 square especially if we ever get more fruit trees. (wich i thinkw ere planned before?)
There is a bug with this quest where you grow them to full size, get a seed and then it doesn't mark the quest complete. You won't know if you're affected until after you get the seeds.
Also try walking around the trees. They used to have a splash effect after fully watered but I haven't seen that in a while. My bars usually disappear the larger they get but I also use the sounds to let me know they are being watered and when I am done.
quick if anyone knows
i need to plant something before its 6 am , its 3 30 smth right now. I have 20 spots left. What is the most required in cooking out of the beginner crops(before lvl 6 chilli)
like what would i need the most of? anyone knows?
onions, potatoes, and wheat are prolly the most staple crops
most recipes require wheat in some way
Is there any way to remove seeds from the bed?
Hold right click on PC, but you will lose the seeds
Tysm ♥️
Anyone have an acorn flow seed to trade? I have most everything or can farm it (make sure you can Request it) ? Maybe a nice Ruby?
My little robot gave me two pine tree flow seeds, and thats it? I have not recieved anything else except regular seeds?
It’s a 25% chance whether it gives flow seeds or regular seeds
(for flow seeds)
@upper mist It took a really long time to get all 9 knapweeds (just got the last one). But I got the correct number of apples and the carrots worked in keeping the weeds off the apple trees. So I will try to replicate the bug where I had tomatoes instead of carrots and see if the apples stop growing. Though first I will do it without any vegetable, since I already got all 9 knapweeds and see if that stops the apples from growing.
Any better layout for Quantity Star blueberries ( Saving up for some big cake parties)
The above was the wrong screenshot oops
What the heck why is the limit 9?! At least make it an even 10. Now my rows are uneven and ugly. Also I want like 12.
@elder tapir Make 3 row of 3. They limited it due to game economics. They have an article on it.
Yeah but then it's like square and I wanted a rectangle lol oh well
I get that there's an upper limit but 9 is so small
then 2 rows of 4 and move the last one somewhere else
I totally agree. I prefer 15
Plus the soil blocks fit perfectly in the courtyard
I will post here hello all i am new to the game i just started gardening but i am struggling with keeping up seeds i have a seed maker but it takes most of the day to make the seed i need to replant what am i doing wrong or is there a better way
you should be throwing everything you can into your seed makers and selling the seeds, it is always more profitable!
that way you should eventually have plenty left over to replant
okay ty
whats a good layout for speedrunning to gardening lvl 10? then another good layout to grind to get my first apple tree seed?
well i got naio/zeki to lvl 3 friendship before lvl 10 gardening so i got the apple tree seed before lvl 10
easier and faster with friendship imo
yeah if u talk to them every hour , u can level up the friendship to level 3 in like 2 days lol
i wish i could be that disciplined but i forget to talk to them all the time
