so that everyone can see it w/o having to hunt through every thread about the new watering system, please and thank you.

and please make it like the spreader. It's too crazy otherwise. You plant a short crop and can't water the next one you plant under this system.

Plus we need trees faster too - there are so many there is not enough room to plant enough - exact same prob you solved about the crops - pls don't leave trees out!

In every way it makes more sense to make it work just like the spreader.

It costs $20 RL dollars to get the two tools to do this, remember :-)

TIA!

that will probably come with the next update for more fc

It didn't with the spreader - they just updated it to include trees! :-)

That's not correct. We have the red manure spreader that fertilizes crops. Then they came out with the orange manure spreader that includes trees, logs and flowers.

She probably meant flowers and not trees. When the orange spreader came out it did not fertilize flowers they added that to the orange spreader a few updates later, at no extra cost to us.

[jenifoofoo]

you're both right. I was probably thinking about the flowers and forgot the trees were not a free upgrade.

Anyway, can this simple question be answered about this new tool?

It's been way more than a day any way you calculate it and it's not watering.

From experience:

You can irrigate again, 24 hours from the last time you irrigated your farm. You can attempt to do so, as many times as you like, it won't reset your clock-counter.

Once you hit, (or pass), the 24 hours, then the next time you attempt - it works.

It would be nice to have a timer on the farm somewhere, same as fertilize -- but until it does, pen & paper.

Isn't this part of the fun of the game? Figuring out how stuff works? I've been playing a while, long before there was a game guide worth anything. But if you haven't found it by now: read it here.

[jenifoofoo]

No, it's not 'fun' to spend $20 on a tool and guess how it works - lmao.

The game guide does not describe what a 'day' means to the red irrigater.

[jenifoofoo]

I don't like the way it works at all. I just spent 30 minutes watering 7 farms, with the loading time and whatnot.

Plus, we plant crops at all different times and watering uniformly doesn't work with that, and there is no way to ever get full use of it.

It was not worth $100 fc like this. It needs to work like the spreader and also it needs to work on trees.

That is my last purchase from this game. I'm tired of getting hosed.

[katrina719]

It only works once per planted crop. Not once per day. Every time you plant another crop, you have to irrigate again.

Experience? crops mature too soon, and most of the ones i worked on, died too soon.

Advice? never spend real cash for a tool unless you understand its usage
