don't forget that it also needs to be watered atleast twice so that effects it too.

Rain counts as "watering" the plant/crop. Grow time for this is 48 hours but no one has stated (to my knowledge) the watering window. So let's say it is every 16 hours. If you come back exactly every 16 hours to water the plant, it will finish growing exactly 48 hours after you plant it. However, if you don't come back every 16 hours to water, and instead don't do the first watering until 20 hours have passed, well 20 hours may have passed for you, but 16 hours has passed for the plant. Once watered, it will resume the timer at 16 and not 20 hours. So if you keep missing the exact watering time, it will make it seem like it's taking longer than it should. Rain works the same way as watering, but has the benefit of counting the moment you log into the game instead of you having to physically water the plant with your can.

You can see this with crops. I, like a lot of people, grow pumpkins for money. It takes, if grown in the plaza, 4 hours real time to grow and requires a watering at 2 hours. If I water it again after 2 hours, it will be fully grown in 4, but I often just plant, water, and come back the next day. When I come back they're dried and need watering. Once watered, it starts the timer again and needs 2 more hours to finish growing even though it has been 24 hours in real time.

I think that the tree needs water 2 times, at planting and after 24 hours.
I remember, as I planted it late, and I could not water it, until almost 24 hours had passed.

when the quest lines include planting something and waiting for it to grow, I always use the potion on my watering can so it grows instantly so I dont have to wait :D

It finally has grown and i was able to finish the quest, the bad thing is that one of the new recipes with the dreamlight fruit doesnt work and always gives that sandwich with jam

Correct, the Dream Fizz is currently still broken.

Took about 3 days for the Dream tree to grow at first (I mean the first tree; there are more later) but I think it was because I was not going in to the game regularly, meaning, at the same time each day.

I think it depends more on how often the sapling is watered. I believe after 3 or 4 times it was dry and I had to water it, then the next day or several hours after that, it was a tree?

So keep watering the sapling when it is dry and within a few days, 3 or 4 maybe, it should be a tree. Hope that helps.
