Iridium Sprinklers

I know they water the adjacent 24 tiles, but looking at the picture, I'm having a hard time envisioning how many plants on each side that gets. Is it basically three plants in any direction to get the boundaries of the sprinkler? I suck at math. lol

5.

It's a 5x5 square, so 25 tiles, with the sprinkler at the center, so minus one = 24 tiles. Two plants in any direction are covered by the iridium sprinkler.

Ok, thanks very much guys. That makes it easier for me to see. I'll just hoe 5x5 squares and put a sprinkler in the middle of each. During the winter I'm going to map out a new crop area. Right now I just have this huge rectangle of about 320 crops fed by a ton of quality sprinklers.

A bit of advice: put a floor tile underneath the sprinkler - this keeps hoeing actions from displacing/removing the sprinkler. Useful when at season starts when you have to re-till ground.

Thanks for the advice. Will do.

While were on the subject of iridium sprinklers, can you not buy them from the travelling cart lady anymore? Or did they reduce the chance of them spawining in her inventory? My buddy and I noticed we haven't seen any from the cart in ages, they used to show up all the time, perhaps too often.
