Ha ha ha, yeah my flowers are behaving weird, some have turned into Venus Fly Traps, and others into Giant Hogweeds.

Seriously, thanks to Raul and the Devs. for getting to the bottom of the sprinkler problems.I haven't had any problems myself, but I can appreciate that others have, and how it can become annoying if you're waiting to advance your crop times etc.

OK I think the sprinkler(purple) is working,but it isn't showing it watered. Still have 13 farms to go,and will see if this happens on all of them.

If you hover the mouse over a crop only F shows,not W F,But if you hover over the farm(what do you call the lil squares in the left hand corner) it shows watered.And So I think things are getting watered.Does that make sense

"your diversification rank" does not equal my "best". I am about 2000 short. And this is after I have purchased 3 new facilities today.

I use these two numbers to make sure I have started all my facilities. When those two numbers are equal I know I have them all at 100%.

Can't figure out why this happens after every update. Frustrating to me.

Anybody else having this problem, or is it just me???

I've noticed this as well. Even though I've added the new facilities, and although my facilities are topped at 100 %, my ranking has dropped by about 2,000 points for no discernible reason. It makes me feel as if some of my facilities have been taken off of the manager with the new update.

I've been going through them manually, but it's a tedious process and I haven't had much luck yet. I'm at least glad that I'm not the only one that's noticed the problem.

I have the trouble only on farms where I plant 1 large crop.

Mine has also dropped by about 2000

And the sprinklers are showing watered when you hover over a crop but is is F I, had to look closer to my monitor. I am use to seeing F W.

Post Release Updates - Feb 19th, 11:10PM EST:

- When using the Brown Sprinkler to Water neighbour flowers it now shows the farm names of your neighbour farms

- If you use the Brown Sprinkler to Water flowers, you can now use the other Sprinklers to accelerate growth right after that

- Sprinklers should now accelerate all plants in a farm, not partially

- Production Chain for Textile Mill adjusted, it is now after the Petrochemical Plant which is the one producing the Polyester Fiber

- We changed a few wording on the game and the Store so you can understand better the differences between the Brown Sprinkler and the Rest. The Brown Sprinkler is the Upgrate to the Watering Can, it just Water flowers in one click. The other Sprinklers are about Irrigation and accelerate growth and extend Gone to Waste time. As a bonus, the Sprinklers that accelerate growth also Water the flowers so you can do this 2 things at once, as there is no negative side effects in this case.

Based on this, we decided to have 2 different letters (status) in Farm Selector to indicate when you have Watered the flowers using the Brown Sprinkler that day (W), or when you have Irrigated the plants using the other Sprinklers that day (I). We did this same separation in the Time Manager. Also, on the farm, accelerated flowers/crops/trees will show an (I) instead of a (W).

Known Issues:

- We can't confirm if there are still weird issues with the flowers, like watering flowers then harvesting and then all flowers appearing Ready to Harvest again after a refresh. If you experience any weird behaivor with the flowers please report the details on this thread.

- New Train decorations and new Airplane decoration should be available Monday next week.

When i water flowers, they appear ready to harvest, but if you harvest them they do not go to storage. Other issues are the spinkler not working on all items on farms. Can not send gifts. When at market for 2 mins every one disappears. When planting and harvesting keep getting pop up saying enqueing and then loading which stops working until messages go.
