Cloud Farm

As of 2 October, this Walkthrough is complete to Level 7.  I am not able to spend more cash on this at present.  I used the Energy saved from the Cinderella Island, although I would have liked to have saved it for the next Treasure Island.  Support confirmed that there will be mote time-restricted Treasure Island Activities in the future.  The rewards from those tend to be of real value.
The Cloud Farm is permanent and so far, I personally am not that impressed by the Cloud techs.  Upgrading your Research Lab on Seaside produces far greater benefits.
I will continue to work on the Cloud Farm and the techs, however, as time permits.

If you do not have access to the new Cloud Farm, you may have to update manually from the App Store on Apple.  If you use Kindle, updates tend to be rolled out and staggered over a period of days.

In any event, access is through a new Rainbow Stairway icon in the centre of the screen and is not through Treasure Island.
That having been said, the blue Energy total will be available both for any current Treasure Island location as well as the Cloud Farm.

Support just confirmed that there will be future timed Treasure Island Quests like Cinderella.  Do not feel you must use all of your energy, gems and Golden Tools.  The Cloud Farm is permanent.  Work on it at your own pace.  Energy can be used on the Cloud Farm or any Treasure Island activity.

Like Treasure Island, tasks will be fed to you.  Tap on the task description when completed to move forward.

There is no time limit as far as I can tell, so be aware of your blue Energy totals and choose how you wish to expend that Energy.  Finish Cinderella first if you want those rewards.

Remember you still have access to the Cinderella Island until that Quest ends.  

Registering items in the Gallery:

This oprion is not avqilable until you reach Level 2.
When the Arrow appears at the bottom right, tap it for two options: sell or register.  Tap on Register and then the Cloud Farm item you wish to register.

Note that this tool will not appear at the start.  This is confirmed now by a friend in my Community.  I believe it appears at Level 2 when you unlock the Cloud Farm Store.  When the Market icon is added, the Arrow too will appear.

There are a number of different status bars now.  On the top left is your Reputation total in Stars.  This increases as you perform tasks and fill orders. The completion of the first task causes the bar to appear and gives you 10 Stars.

WALKTHROUGH

2.  Plant 10 Celestial Turnips
Each costs 200 Coins, completion 10 Stars

3.  Produce 10 Celestial Wool

Reward: 18 Cloud Coins, 8 Stars

Bonbon's Order: 2 Celestial Wool, 2 Celestial Grass: 17 Cloud Coins, 7 Stars

Misty's Order: 1 Candle Flower, 2 Nectar Grass
Reward: 18 Cloud Coins, 8 Stars

And so on.  They will vary from farm to farm.  You cqn refrsh the Order by tapping the circular arrow on the top right.  There is no charge for this, but it may take a few moments for a replacement to be displayed.


Tap on the icon on the top eight.  There will be two tabs.  One shows the Energy Shop.  The second shows the Cloud Coin Shop.  Use Cloud Coins earned filling Orders or buy Cloud Coins with RC.

There are rewards in the Adventurer's Bazaar similar to Treasure Island Star total rewards as follows:

5 Orders: 50 Energy, 20 Cloud Coins

*******************************
CLOUD FARM RESEARCH LAB
*******************************
When I completed Grandpa's Shiny Lab, the game froze.
After reloading:
Batch Pickup
Basic technologies to farm mire efgiciently.  Drag the screen left anf right to see more.
For now, we only can begin to research two basic techs.  Increase Cloud Lab Level to unlock more.
Seaside Farm and Island Farm have separate techs.  Tap to start a new research for a different farm.
This is a Scholar Owl.  One Scholar Owl can only research one tech at a time.

To upgrade to Level 2, you need: 50 Celestial Fox products, 5 Celestial Lotus, 2 Zeppelin Badges
And 2000 Cloud Coins

There are five Cloud Lab Levels.
Currently, only Seaside Techs are available.

Batch Pickup:  Tap any finished Seaside Farm Machine or Animal products to collect all finished products at once.

Materials required: 30 Celestial Wool, 5 Peach Sparkling Water, 10 Vibrant Macarons: 1 Minute
800 Cloud Coins to Upgrade

Completing the Lab conpletes Grandpa's Quest for the Shiny New Lab.

Another Quest loads:
Grandpa's Exceptional New Skills:
Research the Batch Pickup Tech one time
Earn 800 Cloud Coins from Orders
Produce 30 Celestial Wool
Reward: 20 E. 120 C. Coins. 50 Stars

Batch Fill Tech
***************
Upgrading the Lab Level is quite different from upgrading the Tech levels:

Upgrading the Lab to Level 3:
15 Marbled Fruitcake, 20 Stone Vine Flower, 20 Peach Sparkling Water, and 3000 Cloud Coins
The requirements cannot be met until you reach Level 7 in the Cloud Farm.

Upgrading the Lab to Level 2 is insufficient.  You must increase the Batch Fill Tech from 0 to Level 1 before you can use it.  Requirements:
80 Celestial Wool, 15 Multifruit Iced Tea, 1 Zeppelin Badge and 1200 Cloud Coins

At the same time, you can reduce the growing time of four crops by upgrading the Tech from 0 to 1, but each has its own requirements, and reduction of time is only 1%.  You can upgrade these each to Level 10 and each level upgeade reduces growth time by another 1%.  It takes 10 minutes for the upgrade to complete.  

My feeling is that sprinklers are more effective, but it is likely these techs must be completed in order to move forward to the new techs available at Lab Level 5.

Clover: 20 Starry Pea Cakes, 1 Zeppelin Badge, 300 Cloud Coins

Grape: 20 Vibrant Macarons, 1 Zeppelin Badge, 500 Cloud Coins

Wheat: 1 Zeppelin Badge, 50 Spirit Mouse Candy, 500 Cloud Coins

Corn: 1 Zeppelin Badge, 15 Crystal Jelly, 600 Cloud Coins
To upgrade to Level 2: 20 Celestial Wool, 5 Floral Doughnuts, 100 Cloud Coins
To upgrade to Level 3: 25 Celestial Wool, 8 Floral Doughnut, 100 Cloud Coins

N.B.  Sprinklers and their upgrades on any Seaside aPlot reduce crop growth times more effectively, but these techs may lead to other techs.

To upgrade the actual Cloud Lab to Level 3:
15 Marbled Fruitcake, 20 Stone Vine Flowers. 20 Peach Sparkling Water and 3000 Cloud Coins

Marbled Fruitcake is unlocked at Level 7



To the left of the Lab is another Rainbow Cloud: 80 Star Princess Gowns*, 12 Zeppelin Badges, 8000 Cloud Coins

*Unlock Celestial Boutique at Level 8


I sent of the Zeppelin again and 'Friend in Me' quest was complete.

New Felicia Quest:
Gradual Growth
Complete 300 Bazaar Orders
Complete 10 Zeppelin Orders
Reward: 40 E. 150 C. Coins, 80 Stars

*******
Level 6
*******

Reached Level 6 and unlocked the Celestial Fox that costs 5000 Cloud Coins
At Level 6, plot total increases to 60 and you unlock Celestial Pumpkin.  The Fox eats Pumpkin to produce Celestial Fox Fur.
When you buy the Fox, you complete The Celestial Fox Quest.
Two more quests load.

A Celestial Beauty
Plant 50 Celestial Pumpkins
Feed Celestial Fox 50 times

Farm Life Forever
Reach Reputation Level 7
Have 70 Cloud Plots
Harvest 20 Celestial Pears from Celestial Pear Tree

Celestial Pumpkin seeds cost 25 Cloud Coins

I upgraded the Cloud Lab from 0 to Level 1 and turned on Batch pickup.  Go to Seaside and tap on any Animal or Machine.  Any completed product from that and other animals or machines on your farm that you failed to collect yourself goes to your barn.
Kind of pointless compared to batch production or the techs on Seaside like Out of Nowhere.

When you complete Grandpas Exceptional New Skills, a new quest:

Grandpa the Inventor
Gather 5 Celestial Lotus
Research Cloud Lab Level 2
Research the Batch Fill Tech

Reward: 20 E. 120 CC 50 Stars

When I complete A Celestial Beauty Quest, no new quest yet.
