Make sure that anything you want to be sped up on a farm is planted BEFORE you irrigate, you can only irrigate a farm ONCE per day, so if you plant a 4 hour crop and then irrigate, they will be sped up to 2 hours. If you then decide to plant another crop during that day, it will NOT be sped up until you can water the following day.

There is a glitch at the moment which the developers are working on... some crops will show as wasted, even tho the mouseover says they are ready. They aren't wasted, and you should be able to still harvest those.

Some of us don't always plant a whole field of the same crop. I was ok with the once per day thing on the farms where I have only one crop planted (or same maturity time crops) but I also have a couple of farms where I plant crops with different maturity times. This red sprinkler cost a lot of FC and as I see it now after having it a couple of days, it really wasn't worth it.
