Will We Get a 4x4 or 5x5 Watering Can to Match the Hoes?
As the title says. Iron Hoe will till a 4x4 square. The Scarlet Hoe does 5x5. Yet, we peak at the "Large Watering Can," which only does 2x2. It'd be great if you did one of the following (or some combination thereof):

1. Increased the regular Watering Can to water a 2x2 area and the Large Watering Can to water a 4x4 area.

2. Added a new (scarlet?) Watering Can that does 4x4 (or even (5x5).

3. Decrease the Large Watering Can to use Tin instead of Iron, leave it to water an area of 2x2, and make a new iron-based "Giant Watering Can" (or whatever) that waters a 4x4 area. This way, the Hoes and Watering Cans somewhat better match in terms of both ingredients and size.

I understand part of the problem is this weird, 6-item limit per crafting station, which as you've added more items has forced you to both add new crafting stations and move the crafting results around a lot. There's just so much redundancy and tedium in the many, MANY crafting stations we have to manage. Maybe you should consider expanding the crafting station item limit and streamline the crafting stations to boot? Give the display another column or something, allowing 9 items to be crafted at each station, maybe.

Just suggestions. Thanks for your consideration.

After 2x2 Large watering can you currently go up to 5x5 sprinkler. I think this is fine personally.

Once you get to the scarlet tier you can make sprinklers that cover 5x5. Maybe an iron 3x3 watering can would be nice. But imho 2x2 is large enough to manually water a field full of crops without taking too long.

If I were to make changes I would probably just move the 2nd watering can to the iron tier and make it 3x3.

Ahh, sprinklers. Yes, that is true, provided you have the progression unlocked for them. I agree that if you're rocking a Scarlet Hoe, you should probably also have access to sprinklers soon enough. But usually I'm focusing my Scarlet Ore first on equipment and better drills before I have surplus to spend on sprinklers, so I'm generally still hand-watering quite some time into Azeos' Wilderness. A better can would definitely help, given I consume a LOT of food exploring after the "tutorial" areas.

I'm also thinking mostly of that Iron progression period, where the Iron Hoe is 4x4 but you only have access to a 2x2 can at best. As you've said, the Large Watering Can is mostly "good enough" to get the job done, being fairly manageable for 4x4 or 5x5 plots of each crop, for example. However, I really do think the tool progression could get another dev pass to even some things out. But yeah, priorities....
