Together for the Forest Quest and Plastic Bottles Collection Mission

A new 11 day Quest has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission.  The Reward for the Collection Mission is a Dwarf Pine Tree.  Always try to complete the Collection Mission even if you cannot complete the traditional Quest sequence.  You will be able to find the Quest later in the Lighthouse but you will only be able to obtain the new premium Tree from the Market after the Quest expires.

Note from Freyashawk:  I am happy to share my work with any Facebook group but please credit Freyashawk with the information.  In fact, a simple link to any post is possible, but it is only common decency to credit the individual who did the work.   If you use my site and find it helpful, please do consider voting for H.M. Freyashawk in the Farm Beauty Contest.  To rank in the top 10, a farm needs at least 11,000 Votes now.  It is only through the votes of other farmers that one can obtain this sort of total.  For 99% of farmers, any votes above 6000 are wasted.  It is only for rank that additional votes actually count for anything and it is extremely difficult to reach the totals required nowadays.  The farmers in the top three positions show 45,000 votes, which is absurd really.  Support claims it is possible, but I really doubt that it is possible without some sort of cheat that allows some manipulation of the betting option.  In any case, although I feel like Don Quixote tilting at windmills to continue to try, I appreciate every vote that is sent as a vote of confidence in the work I have been doing for over six years now.

My farm originally was named Harvest Moon.  As a number of other farmers have chosen that name for their farms, I renamed it H.M. Freyashawk.  Any farm with the name Harvest Moon no longer has any association with me.

A new Farm Beauty Contest has started as well today.  You will find a post about it beneath this one.  Note that the final reward for this Together for the Forest Quest has been added as a theme item.  It is the Pug with Rustic Wooden Sign Decoration.

Strategy Tips:
xxxxxxxxxxx

If you wish to complete the Quest as quickly as possible, do not cast a Net as you will be required to fish 8 times with the Bone Hook.  If you do cast a Net, you can speed harvest with OP, but it can require a tremendous quantity to do so, so best to wait.  There is no task involving collection of Chests by Pets, nor any task that requires tending flowers in the Botanic Garden.

I always set my Monkey Boost to reduce OP for these Quests.  It can make a significant difference in the amount of OP needed for Batch Production.  As usual, I have compiled lists of the Crops you will need as well as Batch Production tasks.

As far as the Collection Mission is concerned, I find that setting the Machine or Animal that requires a total of 50 items can be completed by setting Batch Production for 160 items.  For the one that requires 30 items, I set Batch Production at 90 items.  It is possible that I err on the side of generosity here, but I always find a better result if I do it this way than if I set it to a lower total and have to set it again.  Many players, including myself, found that an unusual number of Coconuts had to be harvested to produce the bottles required to complete the Collection Mission.  Perhaps it is because the developers chose a Coin Tree rather than Premium Tree, or perhaps it is simply a more demanding percentage.
