It's frustrating when you need something like ONE of something, like onions and it is two more days before you'll have some!

I say they should get rid of the stupid 12 coin dog and horses that do nothing and other junk in the gifts and put things WE NEED in them!

Hey Browniemaker, I figure that the introduction of fishing is a desperate ploy by the devs to make us all relax, chill out, get off their case and GO FISHING for a while. C'mon now, it is kind of fun and besides selling the fish gives us some extra coins. I know .... I know .... we don't want more coins!! We want Farm Cash, or an xp point for each fish we cash.

How about doing some forward planning? E.g. not sending everything into production the moment it is harvested but wait a day or so until you have a stock of crops. Or, having certain crops you use in a number of ways on a half ready schedule. I.E., I have two rows of tomatoes, one of onions planted, when they reach 50% I plant the same again and so on. So far I've not run out before crops are ready.

I need a fourth farm as well, but that's because I want to get crops off the tree, facilities, and animal farm because of lag issues. That not withstanding, considering my main farm is almost purely decoration, I must be doing something right. I can add anywhere from three quarter of a mil to a million a day on my products without even trying. I need something to spend it on!

Hi, I can not go to pay Pal or bank, have hitch hikers and they will see info when type it in. So what can I do? Can neighbors that can go to bank send as gifts, what purchased with Farm cash?

Thanks,

Do you have someone plowing for you? If yes you are paying for the plowing and getting xps for the plowing.

And commercial fishermen and women sell their fish. Which is just what we virtual farmers can do here in FT -- raise crops to sell. So although I understand we could earn more coins by turning the crops into products ourselves, these other crops are still useful in that they earn us FT "money" when we sell them at the market. And being able to fish and then sell the fish is a kind of little bonus. It would be nice to have a restaurant where we could serve fish and chips (along with other things) or make fish sandwiches in the sandwich shop, but even without that option, the fish are still "productive" when we sell them.
As for the horses, dogs and cats, real farmers have pets so it's logical to me that a farming themed game would offer that option.

Hey, I'm having fun

I think the point is to wear out our hand trying to catch the stupid fish. I'm selling my lake before I get carpel tunnel syndrome. Not to mention a worn out finger.

What in the heck are these dumb things for? I got one as a gift and have no idea what to do with it. I searched "Plant pod" and got nothing.

It is a potted plant that you can put our as decoration on your farm.
