I have never layered so I do not know how I managed this, is there any information about this anywhere as I would like to make sure I do not do it again.
Thanks.

Hi Tractor Man,

Accidental layering has been known to happen when more than one worker is working or designing the same farm, or when someone has more than one tab open with the game loaded in it and does something that can cause it.
I'm afraid I can be specific about any steps that would cause it as we're not permitted to post them or allowed them to be posted due to the problems layering/overlapping crops etc can cause. I can see that you know to overlap crops so you may be aware of more than one method on how to layer something. We know that not all methods of layering are working at the moment.

When it's only a few things layered rather than a lot of them, pinning down the actual cause can be impossible to find especially when you can't see immediately what has happened so may not notice until you revisit the farm, or as in your case with the flowers, it didn't show up until you tried to harvest the flowers.

What you can do depends on how many flowers are layered and what space you have on that farm or what storage space you have available to use.

The first thing would be to run memcahe to clear any stray data from your farm that may be causing a problem. Try clearing your FT memcache. To do that Click Here. A window will open with a list of "unsetting", that is the memcache being cleared. Close that window and FT if you have it open in another window. Then reload.
You might also want to go a step further and also clear your browser caches, close the browser for a few minutes then reopen it. If you choose to do that as well, you may find first load slower as the game has to get all the graphics for what is on your farms again.


If it's only a few flowers, harvest the flowers once, don't click more than once in the same spot, the ones that didn't harvest are usually the layered ones.
Now if you have space on your farm to to it, what you can do is move the flower not harvested to another spot, then refresh the farm and see if another one is in that spot showing either harvested or ready to harvest. If the one showing in the original spot is harvested then that's the original layer, so you can get rid of the one you moved.

If there are a considerable amount of layered flowers, then the easiest thing to do is to delete them all, reload the game and get rid of any more that show up, repeat that until you are back to ground cover, then plant them again.

If you have space in storage, you can certainly store them rather than sell them.

If after trying those you are unable to get rid of the layered flowers come back and let us know which farm has the problem and we will go take a look and see what else we can offer you to resolve it.
