This is what I think is happening here. When the red sprinkler was released the extended waste time was not part of the plan. If you planted a one day crop and speed up the growth it would be ready in 10 hours and go to waste 20 hours + the extra hours they seem to have built in for one day crops. Then people complained about speeding up crops without wanting to because they can't use the brown sprinkler to water flowers, so the devs went in and lengthened the waste time to match the time it would be if you didn't water you flowers. I think either something went wrong here or they didn't change all the code when they did this change. While you still have the full time to harvest the crop the picture of a watered crop shows wasted when the time should be up without being extended. There seems to be some bugs in the red sprinkler and I am sure the developers are working to get them fixed asap.[/quote]
i agree that the devs will be working on this.......but essentially what i have found thru planting a lot of crops is this
plant potatoes.......1 day crop 20hrs ......irrigate them reduces crop ripening to 10 hrs
now (and this is what people dont seem to grasp) the potatoes will not go to waste until at least 40 hrs from when they were planted (which is the normal 20 hrs growth period plus the normal 20hrs go to waste waiting time
i planted a 4 day crop (80hrs) and irrigated it thus meaning it was ready in 2 days (40hrs) when i rolled up 40 hrs later to harvest it it was saying 6 days to waste .....
