Another way to think of it is, total time from planting to "gone to waste" is 2 times the unwatered growing time. Make sense?

[quote=beautysmom;5214734]Well, actually, no, that isn't quite the way it works. For crops which have been watered, it extends the "gone to waste" time to 1.5 times the actual time to grow the watered crop. For example, if you plant purple grapes and then use the sprinkler to water them, the gone to waste time will be 6 hours--the 4 hours that it would take the unwatered crop to grow, plus half of that time, 2 hours. And the "gone to waste" clock starts to run the moment that the crop ripens. So, in the case of purple grapes, your total time from planting the crop to the moment it is wasted is 8 hours--2 hours to grow the grapes (half of the normal 4 hours), plus 6 hours until the product has gone to waste.
Another way to think of it is, total time from planting to "gone to waste" is 2 times the unwatered growing time. Make sense?[/QUOTE cool sounds great to me and both of you are very helpful thanks so very very much |

Ok, I am confused, mainly because I have a mental block against math and numbers, not because I am stupid...lol....
Is there anywhere posted exactly how long irrigated crops have until they wither, for 2 hr crops, 4 hr crops, 8 hr crops, 12, hr crops, and so on? Some say for crops under a day, it increases their time before withering to 24 hours (plus the normal time, correct?). And some say "48 hours for all other crops". That is misleading. Does that mean I plant a 4 day crop, and it only lasts 48 hours past the approximate 4 days to grow? Or is that 48 hours PER DAY the crop normally takes? Do I have 8 days before an irrigated 4 day crop withers? Or 6? :S Again, I am not stupid....lol...just mathematically challenged and once I see the actual formula which includes each growing time, I know I will grasp it better. Thanks! |

In round figures the time to waste is double the growth time for crops. If you use the green sprinkler the time to waste is extended by 24 hours for all crops that have a harvest time of one day or less, and by 48 hours for all other crops. I.E. Potatoes (1 day crop) time to waste 2 days + 24 hours Pineapples (3 day crop) time to waste 6 days + 48 hours |

So if you have lets say a 12 hr crop, you plant it at midnight on January 1st, the regular times would be ready at noon January 1st and wither at midnight the next morning on January 2nd. If you use the Green Sprinkler the times would be, ready at 6 am January 1st (half the growing time) and would wither at midnight on January 3rd, because of the 24 hrs that was added to the gone to waste time. For crops that mature that take over a day you just add 48 hrs. Hope this helps. |

Ooookayy!! So, double +24 hrs for one day crop and under. And double +48hrs for 2 day crop and above....correct? Have I finally grasped this, thanks to Tony and kitt?!?! I may one day, as I approach my 46th birthday, get comfortable with numbers, you know...LOL
