I enjoy the new updates but was wondering what the rationale was in not allowing our super neighbors to irrigate our quest farms. I use this feature a lot and am disappointed that it has been changed. Thanks for a great game.

Hi Helenrobinson,
This was asked for by many to prevent the super neighbor watering the quest or private farm before it was planted which would make the watering useless for the new planted crops. When they water all farms it would water those that the player didn't want watered.

Thanks for the reply. Perhaps the devs might consider making this an option for those of us who really need this feature.

I don't understand why this was changed even though people were maybe asking for it. Watering and Irrigating are two separate things. Maybe people get confused because it all comes under the sprinkler system.

You cant "water" crops or trees you can only water flowers.

You irrigate crops trees and flowers to reduce and extend their growing time. As a super neighbour they can only irrigate a farm if they are able to plant up crops on that farm.

Everyone uses their farms in a different way and just because they have made it private doesn't mean they don't want the flowers watered on that farm. And a farm that is chosen as a "quest farm" might be for just the animal barns and not for other crops. Flowers on that farm will need watering.

I am finding now that I have to water a couple of my farms which cost coins which previously I had watered by neighbours. It's not a lot but still costs.

I feel something needs to be sorted out with the watering and irrigation. Maybe as someone suggested an on and off button for watering

I always thought "frozen flowers" stayed as they were, in the state they were frozen! But I have just noticed there is a Flower Freeze tool and maybe because of this tool changes have been made.

It says under the tool "Note: Frozen flowers will still die if not watered, but they will return to their glory in the first water once they've died. This means you can always bring back dead flowers by simply re-watering them!
Irrigating rather than watering a frozen flower will revert the growth process to the beginning again and they will have to regrow."

With regard to "a) Added 'Sell Half of Selected' option to all filters in the marketplace" - while it's nice to have options, I wish that in the "Non-Ingredients (for me)" category, it would default to "Sell Selected" as it used to, instead of "Sell Half of Selected".

Also, with regard to the (recently added) St. Patrick's and Easter Items, I wish you would move the pink and white spring trees from being available only seasonally, to being available year-round. After all, there are autumn and winter trees that are available all year, and I think the spring trees are much nicer than the stylized cherry blossom tree that is currently available in the tree section of the market.

personally I think all items should be available all year round as the seasons world wide are not the same as the USA, when its winter there... its summer elsewhere etc etc etc..

Been putting togetther a spreadsheet as I am losing track of what facilities I have where and on which farm.
This new bit for the animal sheds has just shown me something else I missed.
I have the following animal shed on farms sitting empty:
Chicken Coop x7
Dairy Shed x6
Rabbit Hutch x9
Wool Shed x9

That is 31 animal sheds sitting empty (oops)

It is really annoying that my SN can no longer irrigate my quest farm. could it least be an on off option?
