Complaint # 2

I wish that the cherry and peach orchards would have a 10 instead of a 30 for fertilizer. I paid $ 9,000.00 for the cherry orchard and $ 120,000.00 for the peach orchard and I cannot get either one to produce. The cherry orchard may have produced once but the peach orchard has not produced at all.

I purchased the donkey stable for $ 150,000.00 thinking that it would help produce more dung so I could get the 30 I need, but so far, nothing. Seems like a waste of money. gerrrr!

I enjoy the game, but too much frustration will kill the game for me and I will be less likely to recommend it to others.

    Chickens produce good dung (per hour) but they do need restarting every 13 minutes. To get more fertilizer you do need to produce more dung, so upgrade any stables that you have & build more when you have room. If you also keep your silo as upgraded as you can, it will produce more fertilizer in a shorter time. If you do have gold to use, one of the best things to spend it on is a Water Tower, that reduces the amount of feed your animals eat & the amount of fertilizer your orchards use. Even on level 1 or 2 you will notice the difference.

    Hang in there, everyone struggles at first, using gold/real money is an option, but it is possible to play the game without ever buying any gold, you just need patience. Eventually you will have more fertilizer than you know what to do with, you just need to find the best strategy for getting there.

    It would be great if, when fertilizer is ready, there is a drop down box that appears on screen on whichever farm you're on and gives you a choice of what orchards need fertilized and you choose which one you want to receive the fertilizer. That way a person is not jumping back and forth between farms. Or is the fertilizer made on a particular farm just for that farm and not the other farms you have? My peach and almond orchards are on one farm and the cherry and apple orchards are on another.

    Since my peach orchard has never produced and my cherry orchard only once or twice, maybe one could accumulate fertilizer like you accumulate ingredients in the Bakery. Or simply drop them from 30 to 10.

    I do not have room to add any more buildings, such as a silo or water tower.

    All your fertilizer is stored as 1 item yes. You can then choose where you want to use it. If you are short of fertilizer & you need to start your peaches, you will need to NOT start your apples so that you save up enough to start your peaches (or cherries). Ideally you want to not have anything sitting idle on your farms, so in the long run you will need more animals to produce more dung, so that you have enough fertilizer for all your orchards. Make sure that your silo is upgraded as far as it can be & if you save up gold from your level ups etc. Water Towers can be a big help.

    As stated above, I cannot see where I could put a silo unless I upgrade 1 house and delete 1 house.

    You said I could put fertilizer on what orchard I wanted it to go on. How can I when the computer turns the "zz's" from brown to blue over a certain orchard. I don't get to choose.

    By saving it up until you have 30.
    Do you have enough dung to run 2 silo`s? If not don`t worry about building the 2nd one yet. If you have lots of dung & its the silo that is causing your lack of fertilizer, then you should find room for the 2nd one.
    You can always look in the rankings (click the multiplayer button on the bottom bar) & go to visit the farms of people on a similar rank to you & also some of the higher level farms. Gives you an idea of different things you could have now & work towards.

    You can replace your decos with ones that have higher happiness as they become unlocked, then you will have more space for more stables.
