This Fairy...

[MegaManCap]

Coming onto my farm late at night and RUINING everything that is orderly and symmetrical. I hate it.

[Frosted Iron]

yeet the fairy?

[CalhounMKZ]

Capture the fairy and put her on display in the museum

"Yo papa, why ya shootin' ya gun at night again?"
"It's them darn fairies again, son. Anarchy on wings!"

[Poil]

I wonder if there is a mod where you can hang up one of those fly zappers to prevent the fairy from messing up your planting schedule.

[ChrillBill]

This is indeed super annoying @.@
Wish we could plant a big venus flytrap.

The next day there would be a huge amount of fairy dust to collect from it ^.^

[esturias]

Maybe there is a "realistic pets" mod, where your cat has the chance to catch the fairy...
But then again, to be realistic, the cat would also roll and poop on your freshly sown land and destroy all your flower pots...

[ChrillBill]

Yeah cats and dogs can really mess things up in real gardens!
Poop isn't much of an issue though. It's fertilizer :p I think? o.o

It is, of course, like almost everything that living organisms produce - including their dead bodies. I even used my dog's shed hair as fertilizer, but the birds always dug it out of the ground to use it as nesting material.

I had no idea you could use their shed hair as fertilizer. Learn something new each day I guess. They took everything or did you get to see how it actually worked?

Yes, it works both as fertilizer and to aerate the ground (+ water retention). It's keratin, which is the same material as hoof and horn shreddings, feathers - or your own fingernails. Now that sheep wool is mostly worthless, people use that, too. Especially the dirty and matted winter wool. You can even get it as a pelleted fertilizer. Keratin breaks down rather slowly, so it's a long term fertilizer. I always have some kind of it in my tomato pots, especially wool works great there, as it will be all gone at the end of the season. Only feathers didn't work that great, I always put them on the compost.

Pet sheddings should only get used if the pet doesn't get bathed in chemicals every other day...

Wait the witch causes trouble? All I got from her was a void egg I think. I just dislike how the Fairy always seems to choose the center of my crops to grow. Makes it so I either wait for the other crops to catch up or harvest and replant. I just hate when my farm isn't in order and symmetrical.

Hmm... Maybe someone can come up with a Fairy zapper mod? Like those bug lantern. Have it hang from a tree and during the night from in the house you hear a faint 'bzzt'.

Well, one time she turned all of my slimes black! >.< And I was very upset by this since I had collected a very colorful bunch. I later discovered that this can be prevented by having a wicked statue placed inside the slime hutch. Other than that, not sure?

Funny idea about the fairy flying "into the light" by the way and all you hear is a bzzt xD I think at the very least you should find a pile of fairy dust where it happened the day after :>

if you want to fix all your crops to grown after the fairy comes by, there is a mod where you can make your crops grow instantly with just one button as you run thru the garden.
This really helps if you plant late in the season and dont want to have the crops die.
