The red sprinkler...such a great idea but still a mess. Maybe "super-poop" to speed growth would have been better, after all, instead of tying irrigation to watering. The red sprinkler is nigh unto useless with anything less than a 2-day crop. There are 2 problems. One (the lesser one) is that growth times, although expressed in terms of a 24-hour day, are still based on a 20-hour "FarmTown Day". The irrigating restriction, however, is based on a 24-hour day. Therefore, if we plant a 2-day (40-hour) crop and it grows in 20 hours, we still can't irrigate the next 2 day crop we plant for an additional 4 hours. This doesn't make sense. Of course, if they would remove the irrigating restriction all together, which they should since we have now paid $95 total farmcash for the red sprinkler, it would take care of the lesser problem. We should be able to irrigate right after we plant, since we are irrigating "crops", not "farms". They need to change it. <wave of hand>. BTW, great-looking dog, the border collie
