Watering crops

[Lilaria]

Constantly my crops are getting buggy and get dry after wattering. I tried saving, resetting game but it is soooo frustrating! I spend so much time, is it because I have a lot of them? Is it because of the type? (canola, never happened to carrots).

It appears to be the type and there is a mini-game to water dried out plants. I had the same experience so it appears to be normal.

But like all of them? 200 of them? Once I left, came back and everything was dry, when it was supposed to be ready

Canola needs to be watered 3 times, one time after you planted the seed and two times afterwards. With a bit of luck rain spares you from one time watering but even with rain it cna be possible that you have to water it 3 times in total.

With its rather short grow-cycle compared to other crops it may leave the impression that it needs to be watered constantly. But you also get a more than decent coin in return if you sell it straight to Goofy

You mean, you water them and they get dry later? That's normal. Certain types of crop needs to be watered multiple times before they fully grow.

If by that you mean that they never fully grow, no matter how many hours have passed, then that's a bug.

The rain buff that is supposed to skip watering is no longer working for me either. Reported it, but definitely not happy about that.

I was not aware that there was a set amount of water they needed, that's kinda neat.

Thanks for info! I was reading article suggesting to restart the game.. It'd be nice if they would inform the player that we need to water it multiple times, I hope in the future they will provide more details in-game

yeah, I'd like to see the number of watering required on the tool tip that shows the grow time as well.

I'd also like to eventually see sprinklers in the game because no one has time to babysit the eff out of crops, especially since the rain buff might not be working (noticed that since the update for me)
