I have experienced that crops irrigated with the red sprinkler have INACCURATE Time to Waste clocks. I have screenshots of my seemingly-wasted crops, with the Time to Waste bubbles displaying that I had about 8 hours to go before they would go to waste. I absolutely harvested these "in limbo" irrigated crops with the Combine, while they looked wasted, and got to keep the harvested crops.

Let's keep the information we provide to the developers accurate.. especially when we label our experiments as scientific.
firstly ....i own a red sprinkler and it is in my storage the experiment was WHOLLY to test the accuracy of the gone to waste timer...nothing to with irrigation and my reported results ARE accurate the data on the appearance of the crop was merely a sidebar to the main issue BUT that experiment sets the benchmarks for another one using irrigation........... however if you take the trouble to follow the post back i was in actual fact answering a post from Taz.....Taz had a sugarcane crop that was not irrigated and it was showing 16.6 hrs to waste and that seemed to be out of whack .....so i tested to see if the time to waste timer was accurate....if you read the post properly i do specify an unirrigated plot...however i will now do an irrigated one just to settle this one way or the other
