Gardening 202

Hello again,

Do you remember the "Gardening 101"?  If not, please read this link: http://dianawildheart.blogspot.com/2011/06/gardening-101.html before I move on "Gardening 202."

Are you still have hard time with which best things for gardening needed?  Are you thinking about which the best: plot or soil?

Which items or/and seeds that plants like to be grow up fast?  

Are you not sure which gears with energy better for you?

Okay, first of all, I can help you to thinking that questions to be best for you and your gardening.

Soil and Plot:

Let focus on Soil and Plot.

Example:

Small Plot:

Small Enchanted Plot:

Small Soil:

Small Enchanted Soil:

Medium Plot:

Medium Enchanted Plot:

Medium Soil:

Medium Enchanted Soil:

Large Soil:

Large Enchanted Soil:

Lot of people want to know where is the large plot?  My answer is Nope, no large plot,  Sorry!

I learned about difference between normal soil/plot and enchanted soil/plot.   There are no difference that I tested them out as same times and I am tell you the truth, no difference between them.  But in my opinions, I prefer enchanted soil and plot for seeds.

Now I am tell you the best way to set up the size for spells to fit in. I chose small plot, medium soil, and Large soil with all enchanted.  The reasons I chose this sizes because it is best for me to tell you how to set the right way for yourself and garden with your comfortable.

When I talked about Large spells as I mean this picture as long you see big size for all sizes, can you see blue circle around small enchanted plots?

Psstttt....... This is total 52 small plots.  No joking that fit all one big "large" spell.

Now you know what are the different between soil and plot to set up for gardening. I am going to share different sizes for "Large spells."   As you will see different sizes below.  Let me post few pictures here.  I hope that can help you to think.  =-)

Small Soil:

(Count 32 Small Soils)
Remember this can't be close that I tried, but as you see this picture.  Think about it.

Small Plot:

(Count 52 Small Plots) Really close each other.  

Medium Soil:

(Count 32 Medium Soils)

Medium Plot:

(Count 28 Medium Plots)

Large Soil:

(Count 9 Large Soils)

Best size for seeds:	Medium Spells:	Large Spells:
Small Plot	9	52
Small Soil	6	32
Medium Plot	4	28
Medium Soil	6	32
Large Soil	2	9

Items/Seeds Likes:

First of all, I like you to read this blog of Kevin Battleblood who wrote this title: Gardening: Quality of Life (Cycles)  (Credit to Kevin Battleblood)  It is amazing that he tell us that items or/and seeds that Plants really like make grow faster than without them, grow so slow.    I been researching those seeds and items, but still processing with them.

 Here is the link:

SEEDS!

Hope this will help you lot.

Confuse?  Well, as you see that chart is total of seeds energy to use by spells on their needs.

I can give you the few examples of seeds total energy that may influence you and your energy.

Prickly Bear Cactus:

If you use large spells, that will be 45 energy total you use. With likes, but no seeds that mean total 45 energy, that's it.

Evil Magma Peas:

If you use large spells, that will be 55 Energy total you use, but remember, with Likes, they need any kind of boom Shroom, you need to add the energy 11-31, for me I chosen Fiery Boom Shroom that will be 31 total.  So you have 55+31=84 Energy for both seeds.

Psst.. Remember the energy you have is limit, so be careful with what you think about. Hope the energy total for seeds that can help you to figure out the total, you planning to garden.  But the energy gears I going to talk about.  Hope it will help you.  =)

 I do use the energy gears for gardening and also pet training.  What is the energy gears I talk about to you?  Well, here are the pictures I can share with you.

Beastmaster Outfit: Any level (Total Energy: 18)

Baconator? Outfit: Must be level 55+ only (Total Energy: 30)

Greenwarden's Energetic Outfit Level 60+ only from Wyvern Pack (Total Enery: 42)

Ingulf The Grower: 

Equipment Recipes Vendor, 

Vestrilund, Wintertusk, Grizzleheim

Required by Grandmaster Artisan

Ring (Level 56+ only, Energy: 4) 

Dagger (Level 56+ only, Energy: 2)

But remember, you start at level 12, start with 45 Energy.  Stop at legendary, level 60 with 70 Energy.


Pssstttt.... If you have those energy gears not fit in my blog, please comment this.  Thank you.

I am let Tatiana Shadowflame make this comment to share with you, since I learned the secret from her.  I want her to share with you.  Enjoy!

1) When you grow the plants, but you let one or few seeds die, when will you let it die and why? Explain                    please.

1. I will let a plant die when i have planted it only as a like. as an example, i plant a lot of honey sickle for the blades. balance blades in particular. so in the gardens that I have planted honeysickle, I also planted a evil snowpea, and a deadly fly trap. both of which are likes to the honey sickle. the honey sickle likes all fly traps, but the reason I have chosen the deadly, is because of its tendancy to get pixie. I allow these plants to die, instead of letting them go to elder, is so I dont have to tend to them, therefore, saving energy. Epsecially on those fly traps. Ugh. The imps. Not a fan                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 

               

2) How does that pixie appear? 

3) Which seeds do you suggest that can attract pixie make plants like?

2 and 3.  I dont know how the pixie appears. It just seems certain plants get pixie more than others. It seems if you tend to it often, make it happy, certain plants get them. the plants I have noticed that get pixie often are couch potato, deadly fly trap, fiery bloom shroom, grapes of wrathe, orange dandelion, prickly bear cactus, red bell pepper, rye bread fruit bush, stink weed, tiger lily, and rarely, the pink dandelion. I recommend if you are looking just for pixie, to use the deadly fly trap, tiger lily, or fiery boom shroom. In that order. Grapes of wrath seem to get the most pixie, but are not a drop anywhere, and cant be bought in the bazaar.  The couch potato will get them often, but are a crowns only item, and give nice rank 9 mega snacks, so not a good idea to kill them, once it gains its pixie. Remember, if you intend to plant the plant only for pixie, to kill it once it gets it. dont let it go to elder or you will lose the pixie. If you kill it, even though its dead, all other plants will still see the pixie.

First of all, I want to say Thank you to Kevin Battleblood and Tatiana Shadowflame share their experience with Gardening.  I hope this blog as education for everyone who want to know how to set up the best way to set up the soils and stuff.  

I wish you Good Luck with Spirals!

P.S. You can share comment with your experience of gardens, please do!  =)  Thank you!

Hello again,

I been thinking about while I doing seeds energy, I just found out about Deadly Helephant Ears Like more items last night at WIKI.  So it made me thinking, "is that so silly if I have all items that from crown shop, crafted and bazaar set up that plants really like, to put all information for each seeds likes?"

Questions for you:

Do you want to see all crafted, crown items and all items from bazaar/house shops to set up for seeds to make grow up fast?

If yes, please let me know which items, I will add the lists for all items that I can test them out.

Btw, for items, it is better if you have those to keep, do not sell.  Because you need them for gardening just in case if you think of that "I want to plant those seeds and see what they like" and you already have it.

$$$ on Mega Snacks Pack????

Hello again,

I learned the secrets about crowns and how to save your crowns to spend on stuff like "Mega Snacks Pack."

First, I will show you the link of Kelsey Fireheart that she posted in few weeks ago about pet training and mega snacks. http://starsofthespiral.blogspot.com/2011/09/mega-pet-snack-packs.html

 7 Mega Snacks in one pack.  Cost 2500, you need about 8 packs for one pet from baby to epic. 20,000 crowns on Mega Snacks Pack alone for one pet.  Is that too much cost $$$$ for you?

If you prefer do that fast way, I understand that but I am suggest this blog for you to read if you like to focus on how to save crowns on Mega Snacks Packs.

I chose one seed so you get the ideas but I know that there are three best seeds drop Mega Snacks.  So I will explain this seed compare with Mega Snacks Pack.

For Evil Magma Peas seed: 1250 crowns, mega snack will give at elder.

If you have 32 Evil Magma Peas seeds, that will be 40k crowns.  But 32 Mega Snacks!!!  Hold on........ 32?  Nope, not if you plant 32 Evil magma Peas with their "5 LIKE," that will be 4 days.  FOUR DAYS?????  From seedling to Elder, that is total for 4 days AND 32 Mega Snacks.  If you have 4 LIKES, that will be 6 days.  Pixie is hard to get if you know which seeds will attract pixies.  Good Luck!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Can you think about math?  Here is it!!!!!

MS=Mega Snack

4 days divide by 30 days equal 7.5 times. (I choose 7 instead 8 cause it is 32, so there is no 32 days. ;-)  )

7 time 32 MS equal 214 Mega Snacks for one month and about 4 epic pets!!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okay, if not understand, let me set the chart for you.  Compare to use mega snack pack and seeds.

	Mega Snacks Pack	Evil Magma Peas Seeds
Cost Crown:	2500 each	1250 each
Count:	7 MS =1 pack	1 MS = 1 seed^
Pet (Baby to Epic)	56 MS (8 pack)	56 MS (32MS  2x4 days)
Total value:	20,000 Crowns	40,000 Crowns
4 pets training	80,000 Crowns	40,000 Crowns as replants every 4 days = 214 MS for one month
Total of MS in Pack:	7 MS=1 pack	32 MS=4 ½ packs
For one year total:	960,000 crowns	40,000 crowns, but plant over and over

^Suggestion for 32 seeds as medium soil.

I noticed that crowns 960,000 for one year, that lot of money.  Total crowns to spend: $960.00 on crowns sale only.  But remember if you spend just for one year that will be $720.00 on crowns sales only.

But if you thinking about garden seeds, then you will save about $900.00 for that seeds only.  You will spend about 40,000 crowns on seeds but you will have about 20,000 crowns left for whatever you want.  $60 for 60,000 crowns on sale.  Hmmmmm..........  think about the math of this chart I just explained.

Wow, for mega snacks pack you pay that much cost $$$$$$$$$$.............  It hit me and thought about it, I rather do gardening that give time and patient.  I rather save crowns on gardening than buy on packs.    Good Luck!

Here are three seeds I suggested:

Couch Potatoes
Deadly Helephant Ears

Evil Magma Peas

In my opinion, this seed EMP is the best so far for me.  But it is up to individual.  If you can't afford crowns for seeds, my suggestion is other seeds that you can use gold is Prickly Bear Cactus.  They do drop two mega snacks: Crab Apple and Sun Fruit.

If you really want those seeds now, well, my advice is buy one or few at a time, or whatever you have your money. Or just be patient, that you can have money to buy them.   It is up to you but thinking about MS pack or seeds......

I have few quotes from Twitter friends to share their experience with gardening and pack.

“I spent about 39,000 crowns on 24 evil magma peas, 5 potato, and 2 deadly helephant ears.  That garden gives me around 200 rank 9 snacks a month.  That’s not counting the rank 7 and lower at each mature harvest, which I sell for gold. If the snacks gave 7 rank 9, that would be about 14 packs a month. but they don’t.  They give three, which means 67 packs if you are after only rank 9. I have been able to train my pets quicker with the rank 9. Peas give an assortment of snacks, so can easily balance out the stats.  Not only have I saved thousands of crowns by not needing snack packs, but its so much quicker training with rank 9 snacks only.  One last thing to get the 200 all rank 9 snacks from snack packs.  Here is the math.  3 per pack.  200/3= 67.  67x2500=167,500 crowns a month.” 

                                                                                          @tatshadowflame

“You get 3 rank 9 snacks and 4 rank 8. breakdown is: 1x50 pt, 1x45 pt, 1x40 pt, 2x30 pt, 2x25 pt. This gives out 220 training pts per pack, now some packs may have more or less than stated but above is a good general rule.”

                                                                                               @taliesinharps

I wish you Good Luck with Spirals!

Deaf Joke 5: Deaf Lady in Trouble

Hello again,

Deaf Joke!  :)  Enjoy!

One day a lady was driving on the Highway. She frequently checked her speed gauge to make sure she stayed within the speed limit. However, when she looked into her rear mirror, much to her dismay, she saw a police car not far behind! And, to make matters worse, the police car turned on his flashing lights. She thought to herself, "Uh-oh, what have I done now? I'm not speeding. I'm not drinking. I have my seat belt on! I have kept up my license dues and everything!"

So, she pulled over and the police car pulled over to the side right behind her car. She drove her car slowly to a stop, slowly rolled down the window, and prepared for a ticket when she knew she didn't deserve it. A policeman walked up to her window, and spoke to her. The lady pointed to her ear and shook her head, meaning she was deaf. The policeman smiled slightly, and knowing sign language, signed back, "I know. I'm here to tell you that your horn is stuck."


I wish you Good Luck with Spirals!
