Tractors

Are you able to use more than one tractor at a time.....or just the one you have parked outside?

    Depending on how many you have open & upgraded, yes it is possible to run all 4 action tractors at once. Providing you have enough tool boxes & certs & or Gold to do so. ;)

    Hi Gin and Data King,

    I thought I would add that you don't technically use the permanent tractors.  Once you have them built and upgraded to level 7, they don't need to be activated.  They will simply work for you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. :D

    For the activation tractors, the one placed outside the garage really does nothing except look pretty and open directly to that tractor when clicked.

    Data King is absolutely correct, it depends on what you have for certificates and tool boxes and gold. 

    If you are still building a tractor, you may want to only use certificates to activate a tractor because the tool boxes are harder to come by.

    Thanks Connie.
    The permanent tractors are the first group of tractors...right?
    Activation tractors are the second group (like the one that increases the amount the bakery produces)  ?

    What you added really helped.  (I was wondering if you had to go through all 8 tractors & activate them every day....lol.  Didn't think that was right).

    The only one I don't use is the one for the greenhouse, but I had to get it to get the next one.

    Yes you got it Gin7  :)
     the permanent tractors are the first 4 &
    the action tractors the next 4
    as a daily task/quest you are asked to activate 1 action tractor, this is totally up to you to do it or not.
    As for the the action tractor for the green house this will and does come in handy to work with the temp farms to grow more special fruit for the boat/ship  ;)

    I didn't think you had to build any of the activation tractors before others.  I think some don't build their greenhouse humus tractor at all because they have no intention of going to the islands. B)

    For the permanent ones, yes there was an order and you had to build one before the other ones opened up to be built.

    I could be wrong thou. :)

    I thought that if you did the greenhouse you had to fill 6 spaces on the ship instead of 4 for the duration of the game.  That's why I never did the greenhouse.  Please let me know if I'm wrong,  Data King.

    To my knowledge going to the island opens up the slots do not think greenhouse is the catalyst.

    No you are right. Once you go to a temp farm then the green house opens, I believe then you must fill all 6 spots on the boat/ship.

    Thank you both (Data King & Damaria3) for your help.
    Do you both have the greenhouse?
    If so, how hard is it to fill up those last 2 slots in the ship after doing the temp farm?
  • kbahr007 (US1)kbahr007 (US1) US1 Posts: 1,841

    I have the greenhouse

    Filling it up is a matter for you to decide, you need to have enough of the seeds to have enough of what they want, the thing you have to know is that you can decide how much of each product to give them from event seeds such as passion fruit. They way to decide is using the green arrows on the side of each product. Remember that the more you donate the more horseshoes you get back.

  • Data King (US1)Data King (US1) US1 Posts: 7,994
    Yes I have access to the Greenhouse for me I put only the minimum in the last 2 spots on the boat. That way I usually have enough til the next temp farm starts.
    kbahr is right the more you donate into the last 2 spots the more horseshoes you will get in return.
  • I went to the Candy temp farm in Nov.  I did well and made over 30k of each of the 4 special fruits.  I only give the ship the minimum amount of these fruits and I have been able to skip the last 2 temp. farms and I still have fruits to donate.  

    You kind of have to find your own balance when it comes to the temp islands.  If you don't have lots of money/gold to spend or would rather spend your cash on your main farms ( as I do) you can make those island fruits last a long time since you can choose how much to donate to the ship.

    Training your horses takes longer this way since you don't earn the big horseshoe bonuses for the bigger donations, but you can completely load your ship longer between temp farms giving smaller amounts.  I hope this helps.   :)
  • I've been reading more and more on the forum and learning more and more. I just learned that you can run more than one tractor at a time. I've been activiating one tractor at a time and waiting for the time to elapse before activitating the other tractors. I guess, if you don't ask the question or read more on the daily forum you'll never know what you can done on your farm.

    Thanks to all those who always take the time to answer the questions everyone posts.


  • Ms. Handy, agree, reading the forum is very beneficial.   For me I was doing the activation of the tractors, but realized it was wasting way too many certificates.   So then instead, I concentrated on upgrading the Earth Breaker tractor to the max because it then gives you a lot more certificates when you do the missions.   So for me now I'm concentrating on upgrading all the tractors to the max; and whenever I get done with that, I'll go
    back to the activation of the tractors.
