Final Exams Quest and Colourful Sticky Notes Collection Mission

A new 11 day Quest has been released.  Unfortunately, I have an appointment with my surgeon this morning, so may be delayed in completing this by a couple of hours.  Please be patient!

Furthermore, my game is very glitchy at the moment.  Although I placed the Fermentation Flagon and was told I had received 12 products in doing so, none actually were given to me.  Although I placed 9th in the Farm Beauty Contest, thanks to YOU wonderful friends and neighbours, I was unable to collect the Iron Trophy.   It simply vanished into thin air and I have to pray that Support restores it to me.  Whatever the outcome, however, I send you all my heartfelt thanks for your continuing support, for your prayers and good wishes throughout these difficult months.

Note now that the Crop List and Batch Production List should be complete.   I will write out the actual tasks and dialogue from the traditional Quest sequence when I return from the surgeon.

Many thanks to dear Kaye, valued administrator of Family Farm Seaside Freyashawk and a good friend, who wrote up most of the traditional quest for me this time.  I am a bit under the weather still from the surgical procedures on Tuesday.   I confess that I usually work alone, but I am deeply grateful to Kaye for recognising today that I was not up to the task and needed some help.  She has been a part of my Family Farm Seaside Freyashawk Group as well as administrator from the start.  We have so many wonderful members and I am grateful for their friendship and concern about my health.

On another note, my Freyashawk Community is working with me to complete the Stove House Recipes for every star level both for the Research Laboratory and for the general Stove House page.  I have a fabulous Community and am grateful for their friendship, prayers and willingness always to help wherever help is needed. 

This game has become frustrating in some ways recently.  It is becoming too expensive and too demanding but at the same time, I have made so many TRUE friends in the past five years that I would be hesitant to give it up.  Blessings to all of you!  I know many of you struggle with serious health issues similar to mine and I salute your courage, good humour and kindness.

Strategy Tips:  If you wish to complete the Quest quickly, do not cast a Net, do not open all Pet Chests and do not tend flowers in your Botanic Garden.  One task requires that you fish with the Squid Hook, another that you open Pet Chests and yet another that you tend flowers in the Botanic Garden.

Evidently I am not the only farmer who is experiencing glitches.  You do have 11 days to complete this Quest.  Perhaps it would be wise to err on the side of caution and wait until reset to proceed further if you have experienced any unusual issues.

Plans for the near future

I wanted to leave a brief message to farmers who use my site.  I am going into hospital early tomorrow morning for two procedures.  As always, appreciate your good wishes, positive thoughts and prayers.

It has been a very rough time recently with two very badly pinched nerves in my spine that caused relentless unending pain... thus the delay in finishing the Stove House Recipes both for new Stove House post/page and Research Laboratory post.  With any luck, I will continue after I return home.  Please be patient.

My Community is working on a couple of projects which I hope will help all farmers.  This is one.  The other is the actual number of 'rescue' feedings required in the Hospital for each Animal to reach Level 8.

With the most recent update, a number of farmers lost access to their farms.  One hopes that FunPlus will respond quickly to restore them.  Meanwhile, this, coupled with the problem with access on Kindle to the Farm Beauty Contest on the first day, has caused HM. Freyashawk loss of many votes.  I am more concerned, of course, to see that farmers will have access again to their farms, but I do hope that if you have any votes to spare once you have helped low level farmers reach 4000 points for the Deco, that you will think of me.

God bless all of you!  Hope that the procedures do not knock me back too far and that I am able to continue working on this guide.

To use a phrase that was popular a few years ago:  See you on the flip side!

Special Final Reward: Grandpa's Toy Box Decoration for Seaside

Peter Pan's Adventure Farm Beauty Contest

A new Farm Beauty Contest begins on Friday, 7 June.  I have listed all the Theme items below, as well as giving details of those that are worth more than one vote from Characters who value theme.

This site was created and is managed by Freyashawk.  My farm is HM. Freyashawk.  If you find the site useful and can afford to send votes, they are much appreciated.  Through the generosity of my fellow farmers, I ranked 9th in the last Contest.   I wish to give my heartfelt thanks for your efforts.  It does inspire me to continue this work. 

Neverland Base
xxxxxxxxxxxxx

The Neverland Base is new, but sadly, unlike the recent 'new' Bases, cannot be completed with materials forged in the Factory.  Instead, the materials are tied to various activities that are released over time.  You can use RC if you wish to pay for missing materials to complete the Base instantly.  As the first material is given to you in Felicia's Message with the Base itself and the second is given with the highlighted Order on the Daily Order Board, maximum RC cost should be 24 RC, provided you refresh the Order Board.

When completed, the Neverland Base gives a maximum of 9 votes per day for Theme (as three of the four Characters give 3 votes each for this item.)

xxxxxxxxx
Introduction
xxxxxxxxxx

This post is designed to allow you to gain as many Votes as possible from the four characters by maximising your own Farm to achieve the highest number of Votes in every Category.

The Farm Beauty Contest can be confusing and difficult for new player.  Often, they are unaware of their own ability to increase the Votes from the 4 Characters to the point where they can obtain the Reward Decoration without any votes from their Neighbours.  It requires a little planning.  This post was created to show you how to do precisely that.  Every aspect of the Farm Beauty Contest as well as the rules by which each Category operates is covered here.

Remember ALWAYS that the votes you receive from the Characters are based on your current 'Snapshot'.  If you change your farm to obtain more votes, always take a new photograph or Character votes will not change!  You do not need to take a photograph more than once, however, if you set up your farm for maximum Character votes at the very start.

One more point about the 'Snapshot'.  If you play on more than one device, you may see your Photograph only on the device you were using when you submitted it.  Do not fret about this!  It remains valid for the duration of the Contest, even if you do not see it on your other devices.

Theme List now complete with values in terms of Theme Votes as well as where and how to obtain each.  This Contest gives multiple vote values to some old Decorations and each of the new premium Decorations always give multiple numbers of votes for Theme.

The quickest way to maximise theme votes, therefore, especially for a new farmer, is to pay cash for one of the new premium decorations.  They can be expensive, however, and for many farmers, earning the Reward Decoration for 4000 Votes in the Farm Beauty Contest is a long process that requires patience.  Do be aware, however, that the premium Decorations not only count for multiple votes, but give special Rewards often in the form of RC, Yellow or Blue Mystrons as well as giving the best Gift Box both to the host and to the visitor when cleaned.  Sometimes the judicious expenditure of cash in a 'free game' is worthwhile.

For a new farmer, the easiest way, however, to raise your Character vote total probably is by obtaining a couple of farm expansions and by raising your Landscape Point total to at least 2100.  I need to confirm the precise number of points now required to maximise your Landscape Point votes, but it really is worth the effort and you need not spend any premium cash to do this.  There are coin paths that will do the job.  See my section on Landscape Points below.

Knowing where you can capitalise on your own Character Votes is key to success.  For a farmer not to improve his/her farm for the Contest and then beg for votes from Neighbours ultimately is not the best strategy.... why not make the most of your own farm first?  At least then you can guarantee that you win the Reward decoration in EVERY Farm Beauty Contest as Landscape Points remain constant as do Farm Expansions.

N.B.  PLEASE BE AWARE THAT YOU NEED ONLY A TOTAL OF 182 VOTES EACH DAY TO OBTAIN THE TOTAL OF 4000 NEEDED FOR THE REWARD DECORATION AND ONLY A TOTAL OF 273 VOTES PER DAY TO OBTAIN ALL REWARDS AT 6000 VOTES.

Changes in the number of days that the contest lasts and some other Character vote values have made it easier for farmers to obtain all necessary votes without having the votes of neighbours.  I request votes for HM. Freyashawk only in order to rank.  For the most part, voting for a farm that has reached 6000 Votes is a waste of your votes.  With a total of 6400, the farm does not even rank in the top 100 for example.  HM. Freyashawk needs at least a total of almost 11,000 Votes by the end of the contest to rank in the top ten.  Does it matter?  Well, it matters to me, as I consider it a show of support for this site.

I would like to thank every Farmer for every vote I received in the last Contest.  HM. Freyashawk managed to rank 9th in the Japanese Festival Contest, and I am deeply grateful.

This time, there is a new Base called the Neverland Base..  You will find it in a message from Felicia. 

A number of Theme decorations will appear in the Lucky Wheel.  I will try to give price details as they appear.

Note to new Farmers
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I believe that the Farm Beauty Contest still is unlocked at Level 30.  Even at that Level, it IS possible to maximise your Farm to obtain enough votes from the Characters to receive the Decoration Reward for having 4000 Votes.

You must start on the first day, however, with the best possible configuration, if you are at the lower levels and have not played long enough to have acquired many of the Theme items.

Even if you are not that concerned about your own results, you can register and help other farmers with your votes.  Even if you feel you cannot obtain a total of 4000 or 6000 votes, do your best to organise your farm for maximum votes to practice for future Contests.  If you are a low level farmer but are willing to spend a little money, purchase of the new theme decorations should make a big difference in theme totals, which could make all the difference in terms of reaching the goal of 4000 votes by the end of the contest.

COUNT YOUR TOTAL EACH DAY.  Most important are the Character Votes.  If you are reaching a total of 182,  you will obtain the Decoration.  (The required total used to be 200, so now it is easier to reach the necessary total of 4000 before the end of the Contest.)

Tips:  Where Landscape Points are concerned, try to find a Buddy who is at a high level who will send you paths as Gifts.  If you are able and willing to spend RC, the Macaron Path and Pebble Paths can boost Landscape Point totals faster with less effort, but if you can place enough of the other Paths and make certain that your Decorations are within their sphere of influence, you can reach the necessary total for maximum votes in that category.

The theme list is to be found in the little red book in the Farm Beauty Contest Menu.  I publish a list of all Theme items in my post with details as to where and how they can be obtained.  Some Theme items originally were released as Mission Rewards.  In many cases, these old Missions can be activated from the Lighthouse and you can obtain the Decoration without paying RC for it.  Others can be purchased directly from the Gallery using Blue or Yellow Mystrons.  Try to do it at the start, however whenever possible and make certain that, should you improve your farm's configuration, you take a new screenshot immediately!  You do not have to take more than one screenshot during the course of the contest UNLESS you obtain items that improve the Character vote totals.

Every day counts!  Count the total number of votes you receive from the four Characters at the end of the first day of the Contest and then see how you can improve this number if, multiplied by 20 (days), you do not have 4000 Votes as the projected total.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
OBTAINING THE REWARD DECORATION
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

You need a total of 4000 Votes by the end of the Contest to receive the significant reward which is the Decoration.  Almost any farmer at Level 50 or above should be able to maximise the Votes of the 4 Characters to obtain this even without a single vote from a Neighbour.  You basically need a total of 182 Votes per day, although the Contest is giving an extra voting period and that reduces the total needed per day.  (It used to be 200 votes per day.)

If you care about this, register your farm on the first day with maximum votes from the 4 Characters using the guidelines below.

For the Avatar, you need 273 votes per day, but with the recent changes in Character Votes, it is not impossible by any means to reach these totals from the Character votes alone.  If you are receiving 273 votes per day from the four Characters, you will obtain the Avatar by the end of the Contest.  If you have reached Level 90, you should be able to obtain 273 Votes per day from the Characters alone.  This was the case when 300 votes per day were needed, and 273 is a much lower number.

Note that for almost 99% of farmers, ANY VOTES ABOVE 6000 simply are wasted.  Many farmers therefore announce when they have reached 6000 and urge the friends who vote for them to vote for some one else at the end of the contest.  The only reason to vote for a Farmer who has reached 6000 Votes is to try to help that farmer to RANK in the Contest.  I always ask ONLY for votes for HM. Freyashawk throughout the Contest to try to have that farm rank in the top 10.  The name Freyashawk has been associated with the strategy guides I write for a couple of decades.  It always is my hope that a farmer will see the name in the top 10 and then look for a guide for the game if that farmer needs help with Seaside.

Once again, I wish to thank every farmer who sent votes to HM. Freyashawk in the last contest, allowing my farm to place 9th.

xxxxxxxxxxx
Pet Category
xxxxxxxxxxx

The total number of Votes that can be given by Grandma for Pets is 12.  Equipment (the collars, scarves and bow ties and so on) that you forge in the Factory each count for 1 Vote.  Apparel counts for the other Votes and it does not matter if it is premium Apparel or Temporary Apparel or even duplicate Apparel.  All will count equally.  A Buddy Pet does NOT count.  That was a glitch.

PETS MUST BE OUTSIDE THE PET HOUSE TO COUNT!

In other words, to gain 12 Votes from Grandma each day for the Pet Category, you need a total of 4 Pets, each wearing a piece of equipment and 2 pieces of apparel.

Formerly, some Pets could not use three accessories.  With the last update, however, the Kangaroo, Meerkat and Hippo were given new equipment.

There is a new item in the Exclusive Store for Pets.  It is the Exclusive Pet Hat and it costs 15 RC.  If you have not bought permanent accessories in the past, you may find this is worth the price.  It will not be available, however, unless you are at a rather high Country Club level.  I believe it requires Level 10, but will confirm.

For players without premium accessories:  First make certain each has equipment.  Go to the Apparel Menu and find the 7 day hats and accessories for each pet that can be purchased for 100 TC each.  Equip four Pets each with a Hat and whatever other accessory that Pet can use and then let them loose outside.  Take your snapshot for the full 12 votes from Grandma!

Purchasing apparel for a temporary period in order to take a snapshot that will give you more Votes for this category really may be worth the effort if your Country Club Level is not high enough to purchase the permanent Exclusive Pet Hat.  12 votes per day from Grandma, multiplied by 20 is 240 Votes... I constantly see messages in game chat near the end of the Contest from a player who says he or she is 'short' 200 votes... maximise the Pet Category and you have them.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
High Level Farms
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

At Level 136, HM. Freyashawk finally can obtain maximum votes from Dad for 'High Level' Farm.

Level requirements have changed a few times through the years but I only know for certain that Freyashawk at Level 117 received 15/18 votes for 'high level farm' from Dad.  At Level 120, HM. Freyashawk received 16/18 votes from Dad for 'high level farm'.   At Level 133, received 17/18 from Dad for 'high level'.  This was NOT the case in the earlier Farm Beauty Contests.  The actual level requirement for maximum votes in this category must be Level 136 as this is the first time HM. Freyashawk received maximum votes.

xxxxxxxxxx
Basic Rules
xxxxxxxxxx

It is your current photograph of your Farm or 'snapshot' that determines the Votes from the 4 Characters in the game every day.  In previous Contests, a Theme decoration often would be counted if it had been placed on the Farm, even if it had not been registered yet.  I believe this still is true, although it is a good idea to register all theme items as quickly as possible as you do receive rewards for registration.

IF YOUR PHOTOGRAPH DISAPPEARS FROM THE CONTEST MENU, DO NOT FEEL YOU MUST REPLACE IT.  THIS IS SOMETHING THAT CAN OCCUR WITH ANY GAME UPDATE AND THEY ARE VERY FREQUENT NOW.  THE PHOTOGRAPH THAT YOU REGISTERED STILL COUNTS AND YOUR NEIGHBOURS CAN SEE IT!   Do not waste time nor energy reorganising your farm to maximise votes if the 'snapshot' that you registered GAVE you maximum votes.  It still exists and is used for vote totals.

Balance and variety always is the key in these contests.  You need a variety of Crops, Animals, Trees, Machines and Theme Decorations on your farm to maximise the votes from the 4 Characters.  If you design your Farm for maximum votes from the 4 Characters, you should not need ANY Votes from your Neighbours to obtain the Theme Decoration Reward that requires a total of 4000 Votes by the end of the Contest.

Duplicates never have counted where Crops, Trees, Animals, Machines and Decorations are concerned.  I doubt that has changed.  The only change really is that duplicates of Pet Equipment and Apparel DO count.

xxxxx
Crops
xxxxx

Have at least 16 different Crops on your Farm to obtain maximum Votes from Darryl for 'variety of Crops'.  You may need less but Crops are easy to plant.  They do not have to be mature when you take the photo to count.

xxxxx
Trees
xxxxx

Try to have 16 different types of Trees ON YOUR FARM when you take the photograph.  Trees in the Tree Nursery will not be counted.  Again, you may need fewer than 16 types but it does not hurt to be safe to obtain maximum votes from Grandma for 'enough Trees'.

xxxxxxx
Animals
xxxxxxx

Beehives and Butterfly Houses as well as the Bat House are considered Animals so every different TYPE of Beehive or Butterfly House counts but duplicates of any type of Animal do NOT Count. You should not need a total of 16 different types of Animal to obtain maximum votes from Felicia for Animals but again, if you have 16, use them.

I believe that the  Elephant may not be counted, but cannot confirm.

xxxxxxxx
Machines
xxxxxxxx

In Contests in the past, you only needed a total of 12 different machines to obtain maximum Votes from Dad for Machines but this may have changed.  Players claimed that the Salad Machine gave 2 Votes instead of 1, but never confirmed that.  In any case, duplicates do not count and if you can cram 16 onto your Farm before you take the photo, better to be safe than sorry.

It is possible that upgraders boost votes in the Machine category but cannot confirm this.  Again, better to be safe than sorry.

xxxxxxxxx
Expansion
xxxxxxxxx

Both Felicia and Dad give Votes for 'Big Farms'.  The good news is that you do not need many expansions on your original farm to obtain 16/16 from each of them.  A farmer who does not have even the 23 x 23 Expansion will obtain maximum 16/16 votes in this category!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Gallery Registration
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Register as many items as possible BEFORE you take your photograph to maximise this Category.

Both Darryl and Grandma give Votes for Gallery... furthermore, you obtain rewards from the Gallery when you register any item.

xxxxxxxxx
Landscape
xxxxxxxxx

'Beautiful Paths' is the term for your Landscape Point total.  As three of the four Characters vote for this Category, it is a very good idea to have Paths on your Farm and place as many Decorations as possible within their 'sphere of influence'.  I have covered the details of Paths and Landscaping elsewhere on this site.  The better the Path, the more points you receive when Decorations are placed next to it or near it.  The Macaron Path, Pebble Path and Snow Path each are worth 50 Landscape Points.  The Snow Path no longer is available but the other two can be purchased in the Paths Menu for 1 RC each.  The Wooden Path is worth 35 Landscape Points and costs 50000 Coins.  Next best is the Forest Path worth 25 Landscape Points with a price of 15000 Coins.  If you have Buddies, however, they can send Forest Paths and Stone and Flower Paths to you.  To send, go to the Special Gifts Buddy Menu.  You can send a Stone and Flower Path to a Buddy for 4000 Coins and a Forest Path for 12000 Coins.  You actually can send a Macaron Path to a Buddy for 1 RC.  There are Buddy Level requirements for sending some of the Special Gifts.

Remember that Landscape Point total is the total of the value of ALL the Paths PLUS the Decorations that are close enough to those Paths to boost Points.

In the past, you needed less than 2300 Landscape Points to achieve maximum... not certain what the current requirement is but here are some farmers who have less than that and their results in the current contest:

1059 Landscape Points: 16/24 Votes

1421 Landscape Points: 19/24 Votes

1484 Landscape Points: 20/24 Votes

1720 Landscape Points: 21/24 Votes

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
How to Maximise Landscape Points
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

First of all, you will not be able to move any Paths or perhaps even set any new Paths now if you have Pets roaming about your Farm.  You must place all of them in the Pet House before you can set new Paths or move existing Paths, including Water Paths as well as those on the land.

Remember that placement of Decorations and Bases is everything.  A Decoration or Base will give additional Landscape Points only if it is placed near a Path that has not used its maximum number of Points yet.  For example, the Macaron Path can give a boost of 50 Landscape Points when Decorations are placed close to it.  Once that amount is reached, however, piling more Decorations or Bases near it counts for nothing.  Use the Move Tool to hover over various spots to see how your Landscape Points will be affected.

xxxxxx
Theme
xxxxxx

Only Grandma does not vote for Theme, so you have Theme Votes from three out of four farm characters.  The Theme List always can be found in the little Red Book in the Farm Beauty Contest Menu.  I will include a list below as well with the price of each Decoration if you can purchase it and how to do so in each case.

Theme items can be obtained in many different ways.  Those that are 'premium' decorations as well as Bases are the ones that often will give you more than one vote from each of the three Characters who vote for theme.

Note that premium decorations from the past often will be worth more than 1 Vote as well, so your willingness or ability to purchase premium Decorations is an investment in future Contests as well as the current one.

N.B.  Go directly to the Gallery to see if a Decoration is available for purchase now.  I will add more information later about the Theme items that are available in the Lucky Wheel/Buddy Share Box.  I have listed those that can be found currently in the Wheel but had no luck whatsoever landing on any of them when I spun my Wheel so am collecting prices slowly.



Please be aware that often you can find premium decorations both in a current special sale offer on the top right of your screen AND in one of the Boutique Shops in your Market.  If you see the item in a special sale offer, however, you are best served by purchasing it in that way, as it usually is bundled with other items, including farm aids and/or Stove House Recipes and RC.  These sale offers expire at different times so the items I have listed below may no longer be available in a special sale offer in a day or two.


xxxxxxxxxxx
Lucky Wheel
xxxxxxxxxxx


It now is possible to obtain more Tokens for the Lucky Wheel through the rewards given by Darryl and his House on a daily basis.  Most of the Decorations in the Lucky Wheel originally were given as rewards for timed Quests and these Quests often still can be activated from the Lighthouse.


As far as the Wheel is concerned, if you land on the box with the Decoration, you get it free. Otherwise, there is an RC price attached to it.  When you place it in the Share Box, it will have the RC price.


Theme is one of the most difficult of categories for players who are unwilling or unable to spend actual cash on the new premium decorations that are offered with each new Farm Beauty Contest.  If you DO buy the three new Decorations, you usually will obtain maximum votes from the Characters for theme with little difficulty.

New Theme Decorations:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Neverland Base: 3 votes from each of 3 Characters

Peter Pan:  3 votes from each of 3 Characters

The other Base that is featured as a theme item is the Farm Stadium Base.  Most of the premium Decorations listed below can be stacked on this one.  It is worth 2 votes per day from 3 of the 4 Characters if complete.  You can own more than one Farm Stadium Base but duplicates never count towards vote totals.

Cat Cafe Quest and Colourful Menu Books Collection Mission



(Establishing a Cat Cafe...  or... just a new home)

A new 11 day traditional Quest sequence has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission.  The Reward for the Collection Mission in this case is a Pavlova Stove House Recipe.

Note from Freyashawk:  I feel remiss in not having thanked the wonderful farmers who voted for me in the last Farm Beauty Contest to allow me to place 9th.  I am thrilled if I can rank in the top 10.  Once upon a time, I wished I could place in the top three but that is probably impossible at this point in time.  The number of votes that have been given on a daily basis generously from my neighbours and friends are much appreciated.  As long as I can stay in the top 10, I am happy, as it gives the site visibility through the link to my name as Freyashawk.  So heartfelt thanks and please do consider sending your votes to HM. Freyashawk in these contests if you find this site and my work helpful.

Unfortunately, I have been having severe medical issues once again.  I am confined presently to a wheelchair and pain that is overwhelming.  It is discouraging as I had made some progress after the radiation and was trying to become more active physically.  To not be able to stand straight, sleep in a bed now or in fact cross the floor to fetch some water for myself from the fridge without using a wheelchair is upsetting and the pain limits the amount of time I can write...so bear with me where updates are concerned please.

Mechology and Zoology are useful where these Quests are concerned as Out of Nowhere for Mechology can allow you to obtain items from Machines that count towards tasks (as well as bonus random items) and Wild Hunger from Zoology can allow you to obtain Animal products without using any items to feed the Animals in question.

Collection Mission

Set OP Monkey Boost to decrease OP, especially as there are a number of Island Animal and Machine tasks that use Batch Production and they tend to use far more OP than Seaside Animals and Machines.  Do not cast a Net until you have completed the task that requires the use of the Squid Hook.  There is no task that requires the opening of Pet Chests so no need to hold off on that.

Tree Nursery with Upgrades

Link to the current Japanese Festival Farm Beauty Contest:

Japanese Farm Beauty Contest

15 May 2019

I have been playing this game since its release and began the guide shortly after I began to play.  The game grows more enormous regularly now, but apart from that, there are constant changes,  I am not aware always of these changes.  For example, recently a Community member asked if she could post my Tree Nursery information on her Facebook Group page, giving me credit.  I had no problem with that until, looking at the Tree Nursery post, I discovered it was seriously out of date.  Not only do I not have all the Room upgrade requirements included, but actual requirements for some of the old Rooms have changed.  I knew that the requirement for Water Drops no longer was valid and had changed to total Tree harvests, but what I did not realise was that, in some cases, the actual MATERIALS required had changed as well!  I therefore am creating a new post here, and will try to find the information needed for the upgrade of every Room, even though HM. Freyashawk has all upgrades and sadly, cannot access material lists on that farm for upgrades that have been completed.  Bear with me.

Introduction
xxxxxxxxxx

The Tree Nursery was released to allow us to store the many trees that occupy so much farm space. It costs 50,000 Coins and is placed on the Building Plot area.  You can use it simply to store Trees that you do  not need presently, but do not wish to sell.  Originally, you did have the option to water ALL the trees in the nursery and collect harvests from them if you wished but this required the use of many Watering Cans and proved expensive in the end.

A later update allowed farmers to choose the option to water trees individually without removing them from their rooms in the Nursery,  This proved extremely useful and now, with a Search option that encompasses not only the ground on the farm itself but Warehouse AND Tree Nursery, you can find any Tree you own instantly to tend to it.

Water Drops
xxxxxxxxxx

Originally, upgrading the Nursery required Water Drops and these were obtained only by using Watering Cans to transform them into the needed Water Drops.  Water Drops were used to water Trees in the Nursery as well.  The rooms in the Nursery are small.  The initial room will house only 5 trees and every room after that is the same size.

Since a fundamental update that changed the entire system, Water Drops were eliminated and the requirement was changed to a specific number of Harvests from the Nursery.  You now simply use regular Watering Cans and Super Watering Cans if you wish to speed the harvest of individual trees.

Unfortunately, my own Tree Nursery was upgraded when the Water Drops were eliminated.  It will take time to discover the number of harvests required in lieu of the total of Water Drops I logged for each Room originally.

In other words, even if you intend only to use the Nursery to store your trees, you must be resigned to the use of many of your Watering Cans to make the necessary upgrades that will transform it into a large enough Building to be a valuable storage site.  Furthermore, the other materials that are used to upgrade this Nursery, apart from the Fire Extinguishers that can be purchased only with RC, are items that are crafted on the Island.  In other words, if you do not wish to spend coins or RC on materials, you will need access to the Island or you will need to purchase the materials from Neighbours with access to the Island.

2019 Tree Nursery Upgrades

When you purchase your Tree Nursery, you will have the first Room open.  It can house a total of 5 trees.  From that point, you need to upgrade the Nursery to add more Rooms, each of which houses 5 trees.

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL POST.  I AM TRYING TO OBTAIN NEW MATERIAL LISTS FOR EVERY ROOM, AS SOME REQUIREMENTS HAVE CHANGED SINCE THE ELIMINATION OF THE WATER DROPS.

Historical information
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I have kept this only for the sake of remembering what the game originally was like.  Please see the Upgrade section for current requirements for each Room.

For the first upgrade, giving you a 2nd room, you originally needed the following:  15 Wooden Cylinders and 20 Lag Bolts.  This no longer is the case.

The items required are crafted on the Island and but no longer need to be transported to the original Seaside Farm.  You can purchase the materials for 1 RC each for a total of 35 RC.

For the second upgrade, giving you a third room,  you will need the following:

Originally 7750 Water Drops  (Increase your total by using them)
Now: specific number of harvests from Nursery

3 Fire Extinguishers  (3 RC each)

20 Wooden Cylinders  (Transport from Island)

25 Nuts  (Transport from Island)


Obsolete now, but of interest historically: The Water Drops were obtained by trading Watering Cans and Super Watering Cans.  You will have a limit I believe of 5300 Water Drops until you actually begin to USE them in the Rooms of your Nursery.  Choose the Watering Can icon to water your Trees, not with Watering Cans but Water Drops.  You then should discover that the number of Water Drops on the upgrade screen has increased.  Keep doing this until you reach 7750.  Incidentally, you can choose to speed the progress of any room of trees by using Water Drops.  This will speed the increase in the total as well..

The Wooden Cylinders and Nuts must be crafted on the Island and then transported to the Seaside Farm before you can use them to upgrade the Nursery.  The Fire Extinguishers must be purchased with RC.  They cost 3 RC each.

The next upgrade, to give you four rooms each of which can house 5 trees requires the following:



Originally 16000 Water Drops
specific total of Harvests

30 Wooden Cylinders

30 Nuts

1 Fire Extinguisher (3RC)


For fifth room:

Originally 28000 Water Drops
Now specific total of harvests

40 Wooden Cylinders

35 Nuts

2 Fire Extinguishers (3 RC each)

20 Wooden Panels

8 Screwdrivers

3 Fire Extinguishers
