all plants will go away after a certain amount of harvesting has occurred. with spicy peppers you should get 4 harvests total (the first harvest after 6 growth tics and then 3 more every 3 growth tics. if it disappeared before that, then you might want to send in a ticket to support

Does anyone know why my garden just perpetually has fertilizer on it? Is it a glitch?

otherwise, it's a bug and should be reported

then it's probably a visual glitch if there's no actual fertilizer in that spot

probably next time the tiles are able to be picked up, try picking it up and placing it back down to see if that fixes it

If it's perpetually not being used up (because of the companion buff taking priority), then it will stay there indefinitely unless the plant loses the companion buff, showing the pink granules and the animation that tells you which fertilizer it is. I actually am storing a few hundred HB fertilizer in my garden on crops that are touching my apple trees 😅 (see picture: the potato has the fertilizer in the soil, but doesn't show a number with the count, because it's getting harvest boost from the tree)

What does the animation look like? (pink swirls, bouncing brown dots, rising sparkles, or falling blue droplets?)

# south hinge Gotcha! Thank you so much!

Sure thing! And in case you want to retrieve the fertilizer from the soil, you can put 1 unit of any other fertilizer on top of it: it will replace the existing fertilizer, which will hop into your bag. (Because that's how fertilzer granules work, right? :P)

You can inspect the tile and see which buffs the plant has from neighbors. If you choose a buff that the plant doesn't have, and use 1 unit of that fertilizer, then the fertilizer will be consumed on the next growth tick and leave the soil clear. :)

I keep a handful of QualityUp fertilizer around for just this purpose (no plants in my layout give quality boost), and I end up using it a couple of times a month due to misclicks. lol

pulsar haven
clear kindle
# pulsar haven is there any way to add more rice and onion by chance? idk how this works :3 <:p...

this is a 100% harvest boost, water retain and weed block layout. so, basically a set it and forget it layout. i personally just harvest the apples and leave everything else in the ground, but more than welcome to harvest what you need for cooking/use. minimal harvest boost is used where the little fertilizer icons are at to get the 100%.

as far as getting more onion or rice (or any other crop outside of the blueberries and peppers), you can simply swap out like buff crops with each other. so if you want more onions, you can swap it in on any tile that has bok choy or carrots (either fully or partially just don't place the onions next to each other or you won't get the weed buff on them), same goes with rice and the corn. you can replace the corn tiles for rice (or wheat) if needed

#

if you are harvesting for profit however, the amount you get will change depending on which crops you have

# barren sphinx this look ok for box choy max output?

Out of curiosity, how does this compare to Aqajj's 55 bok choy layout?
see here: #🌱│gardening message

Keep in mind also that as your bok choy production goes up, unless your playtime in a given amount of real time is pretty low, it will become increasingly difficult to have your crafters keep up with your replanting; so the on-paper numbers (which assume instant processing) may not jive with reality.

barren sphinx
#

i have no idea.

#

i dont harvest the rice tho just use it for the boost

floral talon
barren sphinx
#

i dont konw much about it, just wanrted as little work as possible for the output,.

#

maybe i dont understand how the plot simulator works

floral talon
#

wiht output i am going to assume u mean money
u can use the layout planner to select what u process stuff into (select seeds for bokchoi at least
(dont forget if u got a 3day plant and a 4day plkant to put days on 12 so you get an accurate per day gold production reading on it)
now if we substract 13rice and 3 wheat from ur layouts goold per day we probably end up with less then just a harvestboost water retain layout( WHICH are much less work)

#

and also far less crafter time since bokchoi takes alot of crafter time to proces into seeds

barren sphinx
#

i mean, im just harvesting and preserving ther bok choy so like, less to plant is easier right/

floral talon
#

easier planting is nice for sure
but watering weeding takes time to and i personally just want max coins per effort XD

barren sphinx
#

not sure whi i pur wheat in there lol

#

oh yeah, watering takes time bnut i suppose i dont mind. its like a casual thing anyway

floral talon
#

XD yeay some poeple like or dont care watering so then i wont count it as effort for sure

#

this is what a very lazy water retain harvest boost layout which is not that hard to plant and well cabbage u need to replant half as much as bokchoi for example

#

so u can get some feel for gold per growthtick

floral talon
#

wow i would just replace with corn and set amount of days to 3

neat vortex
#

That would probably be easier, yeah!

#

But it also gives you a proper % HB

#

(i.e., 82% of the bok choy in Stressicca's layout are harvest boosted, in case that's interesting to know)

#

100% HB coverage doesn't make up for 10 fewer bok choy:

  • 3724/tick for 65 bok choy in jars at 82% HB
  • 3378/tick for 55 bok choy in jars at 100% HB
    not accounting for processing time
#

Now... I don't know how the math would work out for switching to processing them as seeds (needs more crafter slots) vs. using several crafter slots to produce HB fertilizer and planting a whole dang field of bok choy, then dumping fertilizer all over it lol

#

81 bok choy in jars at 100% HB (fertilizer) is 4975/tick, less 405g for the fertilizer, for 4570/tick.

But good LUCK processing that many, and to keep up with that much fertilizer, you'd probably need 2 glow worm farms filled with as many uncommon glow worm fish, grilled, as you can stuff in there. XD

# severe python is there anyway i can trade with people to share them?

Yes, absolutely! You can request a flower type once you've acquired them once. (Most except the 3 newest can be bought using bug catching medals, if you are struggling with a particular one.)

The beauty of it is that someone can fill your request with a full-grown flower that has already given its seed, and it will come out on your side as a seedling you can plant and propagate. \o/

neat vortex
# edgy yacht Is there an optimal farm layout for maximising profit?

One single optimal layout? No, because it will mostly depend on factors specific to the player.

However, there have been a few stabs made at it, though all require a fair amount of work for replanting at minimum, if not also daily watering and weeding.

These are focused PURELY on solo processing profits, ignoring potential cooking party profits, focus food needs, etc.

#

But, also, keep in mind that the potential a layout has on paper may not match the results you get in-game, depending on you. If you're out of the house for longer periods, then short-growing crops will sit idle, no longer gaining value once they're grown.

#

If you look at your garden and go "ugh I don't wanna deal with all that today" - same thing.

Meanwhile, apples only get middling gold per tile per growth tick, BUT they just keep on chugging... making them a good option to include for a more hands-off garden.

#

So, the "optimal" garden for profit for YOU is one that you're happy to keep up with.

I am confused by how fertilizer works, do I need to do it once per crop or once per day to gain the benefits?

clear kindle
# rough silo I am confused by how fertilizer works, do I need to do it once per crop or once ...

fertilizer needs to be present at every growth tic for it to be effective. so if a plant takes three growth tics to harvest, you need three pieces of fertilizer to get the full benefit (the effectiveness goes down percent wise if no fert is present during a growth tic). the amount of fertilizer that a plant needs is based on how many tiles the crop takes up (apples take 9 fertilizer per growth tic as it takes up 9 tiles, peppers and blueberries take 4). you can stack up to 99 fertilizer on the crops so you don' need to keep running home to place it. also, if a crop gives a buff, the buff will take priority over the fertilizer. so if you have weed block crops, the crops that get that buff won't need fertilizer unless the buffing crop is harvested

They used qualityup pretty consistently, plus the Bullseye layout at first (until they got apple seeds at level 10) and still ended up with a fair chunk of unstarred stuff

#

So that formula probably needs a little tweaking

#

...although there is the fact that you can't access starred seeds (mostly) now until you unlock the seed collector at level 5

#

I understand why they made that change, kind of? But god that rankled XD

It was so irritating to have to go keep buying seeds

If you are online at half-past the hour and then log off at xx:40, it will

  1. complete the in-progress growth period from your last session when you log in
  2. start a new growth period that will complete the next time you log in.

If you log in at, say, 10 minutes past the hour, stay online through xx:15, and then log off at xx:20, it will

  1. complete the in-progress growth period from your last session when you log in
  2. start a new growth period
  3. finish the new growth period at the growth tick (xx:15) AND
  4. start a second new growth period that will complete the next time you log in

In other words, if your online period straddles the growth tick at xx:15, you get 2 completed growth periods for the same 10 minutes of online time.

#

lol sorry I'm really tired and that took multiple edits to make it make even a little bit of sense...

(Obviously, if you are online for 10 minutes 3 times in the same hour, it's not going to count for multiple growth ticks...)

# runic plank When you are in a party each member get XP from the activity that they do right ...

No, the party buff only gives you:

  • shared loot for your party member's loot-based activities: hunting, bug catching, tree chopping, mining
  • a chance for double loot for those skills, plus fishing and picking forageables
    It does not affect XP gain at all, other than the fact that (obviously) if your party member does something that drops loot for you, you will also gain the XP from picking up the loot. (The double loot drops still give the regular amount of XP.)

The only other way that the party buff is related to XP is that XP you earn while within 35 meters of a party member (from any skill, including cooking, so I assume also from gardening) counts toward the series of accomplishments that award the Grow All Out furniture set.

It won't help you level your gardening faster if you hang out with your friend while they harvest their crops, sadly....

Weird how? Mining has had identical loot for everyone who participates in a node breaking (i.e., the loot bag that appears at the same time for everyone who tapped the node before it broke in that specific instance - if someone breaks the node, then someone else who wasn't close enough to get party loot runs up and breaks it a second time while it's a ghost for the first person, then that's a new loot roll and will have different stuff.)

You could probably cram cotton in there somewhere if you tried really hard, but if you're closing in on the last weed whacker accomplishment, you're probably well past benefiting from its buff. I'd honestly suggest planting something else (cash crop) and just buying your fabric.

@elder atlas honestly, the best layout is the layout you can easily keep up with. it all depends on your play style and what you want your garden to do for you. how often are you playing the game?are you growing for focus foods? find out what crops are needed and works with those. are you growing for cooking parties? again focus on those.

it can either hold 2 full stacks (30) and then one more process if all is either starred or non-starred

The best case it could have 3 fulls stacks with each 30 seeds/jars if one of the stacks was different from the other two. But not gonna lie, that won't really happen that often.
It's more likely you cap at 2 full stacks and then it stops in case it produces seeds/jars that couldn't be stacked in one last lost

The output bins for preserves jars and seeders stall at 61 items produced, because there is a small chance for the process to produce a bonus unstarred item.

For seeders, this means that the number of items that can be processed will vary by the ratio of input (vegetable/fruit) to output (seeds). For the normal 1:4 ratio, it's 16 items before it stalls.
For napa (1:6), it's... 10? 11?
For tomatoes (3:2), by the time it processes a full hopper of 33 tomatoes (one processing + 30 in queue), it's only made 22 seeds plus any bonus seeds, so it won't stall at all.

For preserves jars, which always have 1:1 ratios, they will run through the full hopper of 33 items without stalling.

(All of the above assumes you start with an empty output bin, of course.)

There is also the OPTION to make some or all of the grain tiles into cotton -- BUT since they changed the recipe for fabric to require 2 cotton each instead of 1, it now (in my estimation) makes more sense to plant cash crops and simply buy your fabric.

The harvest boost buffs and the grains themselves are much more effective for making gold than the QU buff, especially since by level 6 your star chance using all star seeds is already above 50%.

#

and to GET that much QU fertilizer... I recommend signing up for a cake party and feeding the cakes to a couple glow worm farms. Otherwise, you'll need to craft it.

Hi guys is there an ideal farm plot layout for crops to get most buffs? and also make decent consistent money? :) ideally at least 1 of each crop as I like collecting all of them!

"Ideal" is really going to depend on you and your playstyle/what your specific needs are, but maybe try this one on for size - the All the Everything cooking garden.
Cotton can be subbed in for any grain crop that isn't touching an apple tree or bush, but I recommend growing cash crops and buying your fabric instead.

i'm hoping to find an afk layout that's good for just leveling up gardening as fast as possible really
i have all the crops, haven't really been decisive at all with which crops am wanting to focus on for cooking parties

#

but planting for quality boosts is a pain, so it'd be great to just push to lvl 25 and not have to worry about that and get all star

#

(i think it's lvl 25 where you get all star?)
is there any kind of google doc or spreadsheet with a bunch of layouts compiled?

TL;DR all crops give the same amount of XP per tile per growth tick, so choose a layout that you can be consistent with and that meets your needs otherwise

(as a bonus, the cross layout produces mass amounts of grains, which are used a LOT for cooking, both for profit and for focus)

Hi everyone! I hope you are all doing great!

#

I'm trying to min-max my garden with as little maintenance upkeep as possible while using only tomatoes and potatoes.

#

The weird thing is that in order to get to that profit level, I must plant no less but also no more than 3 tomato plants anywhere except on any outside row. Any ideas as to why adding more or less tomatoes lowers the profit amount rather than increases it?

#

Also, if you know of an even better pattern/method to get even more profit from gardening (again with no more additional maintenance), please let me know. Thank you!

Your starred veggies are almost certainly better processed into preserves or (for bok choy, potatoes, and anything that can't be jarred) seeds.

Unstarred tomatoes and carrots can go in a glow worm farm just fine, though.

It's decent for money, but is more intended as an everything garden. To optimize it a little bit, plant blueberries instead of peppers (once you are stocked up on peppers, anyway) and sub in either tomato or potato for the napa cabbage. Peppers and napa are strictly utility crops for cooking.

Blueberries are honestly also pretty terrible as a cash crop unless you're hosting cake parties, but they're not as bad as peppers, since they at least buff their neighbors more usefully.

At level 18 gardening, you also benefit from using QualityUp fertilizer on any plant that already has water/weed/harvest boost from companion planting. But, personally, I would NOT quality boost your fruit and peppers. It is impossible to obtain non-starred ones after level 38 or so, and sometimes you need them to fill requests, handle cooking oopsies when someone forgets to check "use starred," etc.

#

The way I reckon it, processing your crops is always worth it as it proceeds passively while you are offline - like printing money in your sleep

#

but some people like to use their crafter slots as extra materials storage instead, if they don't need to make gold anymore

#

Apple jam "prints money" at a rate of about 37.9g/hour, and will run for 30 hours without needing intervention

#

not to mention it makes your apples worth 144g each instead of 96

neat vortex
# calm iron is it very profitable to just have all apple trees?

However, I'd also say that if you have ALL apple trees, you're missing out on the major benefit of what makes apple trees useful, which is that, if buffed, they will grow unattended for long periods. (Though, they still take less replanting labor than other crops.)

#

So, as always, it depends on you and what tradeoffs you prefer :)

#

But there are 4 and 5 apple layouts that are self-watering, self-weeding

#

(the 4-apple layout also harvest boosts the apple trees and most of the other crops without fertilizer)

does harvest boost fertilizer stack?

because i re-planted some blueberries and got 20 fertilizer back, i noticed that i could continually click on a plot of peppers/blueberries and it would stack fertilizer continuously, is this a bug or feature?

you can stack 99 of a single fertilizer on a crop

mighty horizon
#

whoa, does it increase output?

#

because i have a couple hundered stacks of harvestboost that i could be using

clear kindle
#

no, same amount of output, just helps with how often you need to go back to your plot to place said fert. just remember the more the crop takes up space the more fert it requires every growth tic (1 space crops take 1, 2x2 crops take 4, and apples take 9)

mighty horizon
#

aw darn, here i thought i was about to be swimming in apples

also remember that crops that give the same buff as the fertilizer will take priority over the fertilizer. so a crop that receives harvest boost from either apples or blueberries will not need the fertilizer on it

If you ever want to try out new layouts later:
I went crazy trying to remember mine when I started.
Then I just switched from farming everything at once to farming only one type of crop, replant the empty spots immediately. Then switch to the next crop, harvest and replant in one go.

That way you only have to plant the entire pattern once and don't have to remember it every time you have to replant

In case it's of use to anybody else, here's a breakdown of this one:

  • Green block on outside corners: grain OR cotton top left/bottom right
  • Blue block on 3 sides: grain/cotton top right/bottom left (cotton on the outside edge)
  • Purple block on 4th side: it's just blue block with top-bottom and left-right crops swapped
    HarvestBoost fertilizer anywhere that doesn't get the boost from rice or apples

Even easier if you're not trying to grow cotton and sub in a second grain instead (uses much less HB fertilizer) -- though in that case you're probably better off with Astrea Moreno's Cross Layout, anyway ( #🌱│gardening message )

from what I learned here: Almost everything you can pickle is more profitable than making seeds. Except Bok Choy and Potato apparently.

In the long run apple jam seems to be pretty profitable, but yeah it takes a while.
The real money lies in cooking parties.
I think I raked the most gold in with an epic fish sushi party where I only brought the rice.
Rice can also be used in Sashimi parties for money or for Spicy Crab Fried Rice for focus food parties

Yep

#

though cotton usually also goes in a grain slot

#

which means you end up not only not getting the grain itself but also losing the HB buff on adjacent crops (or needing to use fertilizer instead)

#

so planting cotton loses 7g per tile per tick plus 5g per tile per tick on adjacent tiles (vs growing rice)

#

not counting the possibility of using rice for sashimi parties for profit ofc

but the math gets wacky quick if you start considering cooking opportunity costs :P

I think the layout I use from someone else is pretty good for my playstyle. Both in how much work I have to put into my garden as well as giving me plenty of rice for cooking parties.

don't bother putting it in regular worm farms however because it actually overflows the crafter

zealous edge

it depends on which epic fish you use, the numbers i gave were for ancient fish, void rays would probably be better (66/333) as you can stay (hopefully) in the underground and fish for them there, last time i played a lot of people would spend time waiting for hotpot to start and would also fish giving boosts to the surrounding players. just make sure that when you grill, you are choosing what to grill, don't let the game choose for you or you could get less as a result

# zealous edge okay, another question (sorry :')) Does different foods give different amounts o...

If your goal is "more fertilizer for less" then it depends on "less what?"

  • more fertilizer per gold input? (cheaper) - then you want to feed them your excess cheap stuff, 11g or 16g, which output 40g or 45g (respectively) of stuff in a glow worm farm. Sernuk or muujin meat unstarred, or oyster meat, morels, or green onion, runs for 30 hours unattended without stalling

  • more fertilizer per time? Are you in a serious hurry/can't let farms run overnight? (with 81 fert per tick , you might be!) That scales with input value. Tops out at grilled epic fish, simply because that happens to be the single highest-value wormable item in the game, but there are plenty of more abundant/efficient options depending on your volume needs. Higher input values will stall as soon as the output bin fills

I supplement with pickled onions in a regular worm farm (9 fert/hr, +23g per unit) to make extra profit from excess onions and/or get cheapish fertilizer when I'm not hunting or foraging actively.

But arguably those same onions and epic fish could be taken to a poke party (contribute fish some rounds, onion the rest) and bring me home up to 2,982g each in 994g poke bowls

#

so again the math gets hilarious once you start taking cooking party opportunity costs into account

#

grilled common and uncommon glow worm fish also are easy for solo play

friendly reminder whil egrillilng epic fish for worm food is an awesome meme its kinda aw aste of epic fish gril ur common oones instead

(the formula is basically that you get 50 percent of the input value in worms/glow worms, and 50 percent of the input value in the fertilizer, rounded)

For anybody who might need it, the grow pattern on trees normally (both regular and flow) is:
Trees progress and need watering again at 6am Palia time.

Seed to sapling: 1 watering
Sapling to young tree: 2 waterings
Young tree to adult tree: 3 waterings
Adult tree to mature tree: 4 waterings
First growth tick as a mature tree: NO WATERING (free day)
Mature tree until seed: 5 more waterings

Total: 16 growth ticks

I think you have a chance of getting a seed when you chop it as well (normal ones, not the flow ones)

I was watering my crops when suddenly a flow tree from another plot plopped into view and got watered instead. Then it disappeared again and the crop's water meter took a moment to even react to the water again.

Checked on the other plot where my trees are growing: One tree actually got watered chapaashock

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but blueberries and peppers are on the bottom of the gold per tile per growth tick reckoning, unless you are hosting cake parties with the blueberries. HOWEVER, if you tend to put off replanting your single-harvest crops, but harvest your multi-harvest crops on time, then the numbers might be a little better on them than the strict reckoning by grow time. But you would need to delay the rest by a fair bit, iirc.

#

If you like the layout and it works for you though, no reason not to use it!

#

A layout that makes you miserable to work with is a garden you will avoid doing things with and will therefore make you no money at all XD

Gosh I wanted to wait until the new crops are out to change my layout. But I got impatient since my old layout had too little weed prevention for my taste. (100% harvest boost, 100% Water retain, 28% quality increase and 33% weed prevention)

100% Water Retain
99% Weed Prevention (I'm going to drown that one tomato in the middle in Weed Blocker fertiliser badruuwheeze )
67% Harvest Boost
(no other fertilizer applied)

One of everything except cotton, but someone could easily switch out the 8 rice, 2 wheat or 2 corn for a cotton

I seriously, seriously doubt it. As it is, gardening is very tightly balanced, since it's a very powerful source of passive income (especially when paired with crafters).

Unlimited crop tiles would also mean that players might feel obligated to RUN that many crop tiles in order to keep up with others. 81 is hard enough, and already takes more tending and replanting time than some players have to spend — even with companion planting buffs keeping everything weeded and watered.

What DS said. The processing algorithm for excess crops* that works for most players (with exceptions on the far ends of the playtime-to-idle-time spectrum) is:

  • Sell bok choy and potatoes as seeds
  • Everything else that can be jarred, jar it before selling
  • Remaining items, sell as seeds

Pickled onions can also optionally be fed to regular worms for a bit more profit (+23g/unit), if you don't have anything better to do with the crafter slots.

*Excess crops are the ones left over after you've made seeds for replanting and held back what you will need for other purposes, like cooking or crafting.

# floral talon How do the perms work? Like which ones exist and what does it do

For the home plot, there's four permissions levels:

  • Owner (obviously can't be granted to anyone else)
  • Editor
  • Visitor
  • No Entry (I think?)

No Entry players obviously can't even visit the plot; this is assigned automatically when you forcibly remove someone.

Visitors can water, weed, and till the garden, use cooking stations/campfires, access their own storage/safe storage from regular chests (but not the lockbox furnishing), shoot balloons/targets, & sit in chairs.

  • If they weed the garden, the weeds go to the owner's bags, which is a hilarious mental image. If a visitor weeds your crops, neither you nor the visitor gets credit toward the Weed Whacker accomplishment series. If there is loot from tilling the soil, the visitor who tills it receives it.
  • If a visitor cooks food by themselves on your cooking stations, then only the people who participate in the cooking receive the cooked food, even if it's left for the host to collect. That means that if you cook on someone else's campfire and then go home, the host receives nothing. (If you have left the server, you don't get it either; if you're still on the server, it lands in your bags.)
  • Visitors may contribute to in-progress buildings.

Editors have all Visitor permissions, plus can move existing furnishing items and building components around the plot (but can't place or remove them). They can also water trees and flowers (but not gather seeds), chop trees and bushes, and destroy rocks and debris (including the sign at the front of the plot). Editors can also interact with all interactable furnishings (turn on/off lights, faucets/tubs, open/close cabinets, etc.)

  • If an editor chops a tree down (or destroys a rock, etc.), the host is able to collect the loot from the tree even if they would not otherwise have gotten credit for it.
  • Editors cannot plant, harvest, or fertilize crops
  • Editors being able to move garden plots around means that they can disrupt garden buffs by accident

Oh, I guess there is also technically the View Only permissions set, which you are assigned when you visit on a home tour. That gives you some Editor permissions (turn on lights, open cabinets, etc.), but some Visitor permissions are missing: like you can't cook on a cooking station or do anything with the garden. You can still contribute building materials to in-progress buildings, though, which I find really funny

neat vortex
# pulsar haven hello gardeners quick question are cabbage and bok choy inter changeable or

Nope. Cabbage is a 6-day crop that gives the water retain buff, synonym with tomatoes and potatoes. It's slow growing and only worth about as much as corn, so it's not very good for money, comparatively, unless you go very long periods between harvests (which bumps it up to "ehh it's OK.") Utility crop for cooking only.

Bok choy is a 3-day crop that gives the weed prevention buff, synonym with carrots and onions. It's fast, worth a good chunk, and, furthermore, nearly doubles in value in a seed collector. Prime cash crop.

Very ambitious to get all 4 buffs on the bushes and trees with only companion planting, especially with so many bushes. I'm honestly impressed that you managed it!

My personal approach tends to aim for 100% weed/water first, then go for harvest boost, then fill in the remainder with worm-produced fertilizers (HB if needed, then QualityUp after that). Lost growth ticks from unwatered or weed-ridden crops add up fast, and partially unwatered layouts require nearly as much work as fully unwatered ones, ime.

If your goals are more variety/casual utility (vs profit or intensive production), then I think you might find that four bushes is a lot. They're quite prolific, despite not pulling in much solo-processed income.

#

That's me, though; any layout YOU are happy with and that does what you need it to do is a good layout :)

I don't mind manual watering so the tryhard bok choy could work

neat vortex
#

If you would rather have something you can "set and forget," without having to come back every hour/every other hour to water and weed, I think Lucas Dylan's layout is the most straightfoward. It's three patterns, each repeated across a row of plots, arguably (arguably) a little simpler than the Bullseye, and higher revenue, at the cost of needing some store-bought fertilizer to keep it 100% watered.

#

Yeah, if you don't mind manual watering, that could definitely be one option. You can also modify that layout to incorporate tomatoes and/or potatoes, too

#

It's certainly the most straightforward, it's just a LOT of work

narrow grove
#

Any reason I should incorporate Tomatoes/potatoes? the XP?

If you'd rather be out hunting, fishing, questing, exploring, talking to villagers (very important in early game), then I tend to recommend AFK layouts, buuut that's me

neat vortex
#

The table I shared above assumed selling the crops raw

the one with bok choy and potatoes at the top - and you will get the seed collector at level 5

#

bok choy and potatoes are best processed as seeds, and even tomatoes are better as seeds than raw (rice and wheat also seeds)

narrow grove
#

So from what I read, its best if I seed the crops instead of selling them manually?

neat vortex
#

Yes, once you unlock the seed collector, you can process the crops you intend to sell into seeds before selling them (after holding back what you'll need to replant your garden, ofc)

  2. is it saying at the top that you don’t need fertilizer for blueberries but you need double fertilizer for the peppers?

  3. is it fertilizer per palian day? and if we forget to put it on one day out of its growth cycle, it just won’t become a starred crop right?

Blueberries and wheat/rice/corn all give harvest boost
Peppers and cotton both give QualityUp (quality boost)

So to replace the harvest boost buff from the blueberries, if you plant peppers instead, you would need to put down HB fertilizer on the plants touching the pepper plant that had been relying on the blueberry for that buff.

If you replace wheat with cotton, same deal: adjacent crops that had been relying on the wheat will lose their yield buff and will need fertilizer to get it back

Wheat can go in for either the rice or the corn, as it gives the harvest boost buff also.

Okay, now I understand your question a little better.

so it's better if I 100% follow Fairy's [layout]?
That layout is very tightly optimized for maximum gold per tile per growth tick while still being 100% water-retain and 100% weedblock. 100% water/weed means that you plant the layout, water it in, and then you don't have to do anything else to it until the first plants are ready for harvest 3 ticks later. That gives you about 3-4 hours of running-around time before you have to go tend to your garden.

If you want to get the gold numbers promised by that layout, yes, you would need to follow it exactly. Any crop substitutions are likely to reduce the gold value (though in my personal opinion, the fraction of a gold per day difference is worthwhile to have onions on hand).

It also assumed that you always harvest and replant on time, with no delays. (A delay in replanting your carrots, for example, takes them from being a 3-day crop to, effectively, a 4-day crop.)

You will also need to (ideally) process the crops before selling them, but if you're very new to the game/to gardening, it may take a while to work up to having the necessary crafter recipes and crafter slots.

Oh, and yes, you DO need to put the weedblock and water retain fertilizer on the specified tiles for it to be 100% weed prevented. If you would rather not have the up-front cost of buying fertilizer, I suggest using the other bullseye layout linked in that post. You can leave off the corner fertilizer on that one without too many problems, if you have to.

#

Bonus: if you are under level 10 gardening, it would also be a good idea to put quality up fertilizer on your garden on any tiles not already occupied by a different fertilizer. This will improve your chances of getting starred crops, which are worth more, and should be saved until you have enough to make star-quality seeds once you unlock the seed collector, if you haven't already. You can craft the fertilizer until you level your fishing enough to unlock the worm farm, after which I suggest getting yourself to a cake party (just one party should stock you up plenty) for an easy source of high-value sweet foods.

That's actually what I just did 😂

What should I swap out for cotton?

floral talon
#

according to ren other crops can easily sell for enuff to be better of buying the cotton

steel ore
#

I always forget you can buy it

I wonder if we will have new crops added. I know we have lettuce.

#

i personally just run a dedicated cotton layout when it runs low and hten go back to a normal layout(which is max lazy mmin effort mostly decent coins and xp idk why i bother farming at this point but im to busy to bother with money cooking partys)

steel ore
#

Fair enough. I'll have the do the same.

does anyone know what the benefit is from getting cotton with star quality besides the selling price?

Found which one it is, it's the lily rattan cotton vase. For some reason the wiki doesn't say starred cotton but I've made enough of them that I swear that they need to be starred. Maybe it's just that I've only had starred cotton on hand though...

finite burrow

so it's literally one single item that u need it for that's it o.o?

Yep. Just one. Lol

medalgardening Palia Garden Planner v0.3 - Save'n Time Update
Hi everyone, gonna slip in a planner update while maintenance is ongoing in preperation for the Elderwoods update! New crops will be added once possible

Changes:

  • Crafter Timings — Crafters now have better time support
  • In-Browser Saving — Planner codes can now be saved within the browser
  • UI changes to fit all this in
  • Setting Codes — Settings can now be included in save codes for sharing
  • Harvester & Processor Overhaul — Harvester/Processor is way faster, heavily reducing lag when working with a huge last harvest day (like 1.8k days)
  • QoL Changes:
    • Can now hide buff icons/color bg on cropTiles
    • New crop menu button on screen for mobile users
    • New widget for crop selection overall
    • Harvest days is now automatically set to the LCM
  • Extra deets here: https://palia-garden-planner.vercel.app/changelogs

⚠️ There's a few features I had to remove temporarily due to the overhauls, I'll be re-implementing them soon. I'll also be tweaking the crop details some more, to add more info where possible. In the meantime, feel free to test what's there and let me know if there's any issues I missed (definitely a lot). or any feedback you may have.

Happy Gardening! chapaahug

Thank you so much for your work on the garden planner
Tools like yours are such a time and live saver for old and new players alike majicare

Honestly, the new expansion gave me some much needed pressure ashuralaugh there was no way I'd let Elderwoods come before I made a new update

What garden buff do you think the new crops, Batterfly Beans and Rockhopper Pumpkins, will have?

#

So far we have 5x Harvest Boost (Apple, Blueberry, Corn, Rice, Wheat), 2x Quality Boost (Cotton, Spicy Pepper), 3x Water Retain (Napa Cabbage, Potato, Tomato), and 3x Weed Block (Bok Choy, Carrot, Onion)

warped yoke
#

i think the new seeds might have water retain?

zinc geyser
#

I hope its either Water Retain and either Quality Boost or Weed Block. I would be surprised if either was a Harvest Boost considering we have so many crops with that buff.

neat vortex
#

Maybe this is my selfish perspective as someone long past level 10 gardening (which is about when Quality Boost starts being less valuable than harvest boost) but I sorta hope they aren't quality boosters. 👉 👈

2x2 crops are already a major pain to fit into a layout and keep watered/weeded; it would help if they would at least give a persistently useful buff to the crops around them.

#

Now that they made it easier for new players to get all 9 soil plots, level 10 comes relatively quickly.

#

Hi. Someone have a picture about one garden for begginers?

Tysm

neat vortex
#

(maximum number is 9)

slow flame
#

Oh dw about that im almost have the initial but. Probably im gonna get the nine fast. I like the gardening in the game majicare

neat vortex
#

Okay, for 9 plots then! Is this for cooking, crop accomplishments, or making money, as the main thing you want?

slow flame
#

Yes. Make money.
My goal is create a house

neat vortex
#

What level gardening are you?

slow flame
#

Very low 2-3

neat vortex
#

Technically, carrots produce a little more gold if you are ONLY gardening, but

  • Onions are used for several focus foods, and also for epic fish poke bowl parties, which are a very good way to make gold.
#
  • Corn allows you to join parties for fish tacos.
  • Rice allows you to join sashimi and sushi parties.
  • Wheat is used a lot in focus foods.
  • Bok choy, potatoes, and tomatoes are cash crops.
#

Save your starred crops until you reach gardening level 5 and can craft seed makers, then use some of them to make starred seeds: enough to replant your garden 3-4 times, at first. After that, as soon as you can, plant only starred seeds.

Also, process whatever you don't want to keep into seeds before selling.

When you reach level 8 and unlock the preserves jar, put everything extra in the jars that can go in them EXCEPT bok choy and potatoes. Those are still better as seeds. :)

But, make sure to make your replanting seeds and save whatever you want to keep for cooking or other uses before you go selling stuff. :D

#

Once we know more about the new crops coming with the update today, this advice may change!

Oh thanks so so much. For your time and pictured. Really kind

I'm hoping the new crops will have speed gro buffs, which we haven't gotten yet as a crop boost. I know it would be kind of overpowered, but they will be kind of late game acquisitions right? At least the game as it is

It's bugged? How so?

zinc geyser
#

I was surprised to see that lettuce is not available in this update. Especially since we got a few seeds back as a login reward for 2024 Father's Day.

floral talon

#

I'm not sure I would like lettuce, it would be too easy for me to mix it up with napa cabbage when replanting

frail escarp

#

Unless they somehow made the model for it look super different. Like if it was one of the purply lettuces

floral talon
#

The bugged model rn is super pretty though

They tried to fix it multiple times. I suspect the only reason it's even still obtainable at all is because one quest requires it if you choose a certain dialogue option.

#

not going to lie, i honestly think i'm going to come back and play palia for a bit which means i'm going to have to take down my garden and plant the new crops to get the achievements

neat vortex

yep, and unless these pumpkins and beans are completely afk, i'm going right back to it afterwards

not too far off your current garden either

i don't need gold. the apple layouts got me up to 999,999 gold and i only spend 100,000 when i need to get rid of the gold for the next batch

neat vortex

(if you were looking for suggestions, maybe you weren't, sorry XD)

clear kindle
#

just wish they told us what they are buff wise

neat vortex
#

same...

#

once i know what hte new crops buffs are i make some layouts gotto try to find out if i get something better hten me apple layouts

#

wait why would i have to wait to make those layouts im the master layout maker i can do that rn 😄 prototype experiment layout im on my way

#

mh depending on what hte buffs are i cna alter those apple blueberry layouts

#

making layouts without the garden plkanner havign the plants in em is way harder then i thought

thank you chapaalove i made it cause i was completely stupid at garden planning

#

now I got talented people like you and Ren doing the work for me subirasmug

floral talon
#

awh tnx but i couldnt do it without ur planner infact i use that thing to figure out how the mechanics even work

neat vortex
floral talon
#

i can do it manually its just an absolute paint o do it that way especially as i would have to manually science out how it works

neat vortex
frail escarp
#

If only we had the buffs though chapyattasigh

#

Back with the Apple/Blueberry change, the planner was able to switch things up during maintenance so we could plan while waiting

floral talon
#

i can science it out tomorrow or the day after tops

#

science layout ready

#

one side is ferted to make the fert count the amount of days for me cuz i will forget nonstop
and then i can know the yields of with and without boost

#

i will intentionally keep almost everything empty to keep things simple

frail escarp
#

Won't be able to update the planner with the new crops immediately since it's late here. Will work to have them up within a day though so stay tuned chapaasalute

I hope it's own thing more to level up, but Seems adjacent so it could be naturally fit together. I hope it means we can mill the wheat and corn, so I don't have to keep buying them from zekim

i mean we do already have windmills so its kidna weird they dotn do anything windmilly

Ooh if we get chickens do we feed them our veggy scraps. Omg it would be so cute. 😭
