Harvesting and Moon Phase

Harvesting and Moon Phase

Postby Walldorc on Thu Nov 05, 2009 1:50 pm

How long can you put off harvesting your plants after you get the option to harvest.
I have a batch of tree cuttings nearly there and I maybe need to wait 3 earth days untill the next full moon comes round.

So if I examine but do not harvest for 3 earth days will I loose the crop?
Is it worth harvesting on a full moon?
Would a darksday fullmoon (I believe saplings are dark based - erk! whatever that means) be better than a firesday fullmoon?

Your experienced / informed replies would be appreciated.

Depends on the flowerpot. For Tree Cuttings in general 3 days is pushing it a bit, 4 is about the max. In Arcane pots you have longer.

Maybe, maybe not, insufficient data.

In general, yes. But I will often harvest on other moon phases due to convenience. I know I might well be coming out behind doing that however.

That depends on the target crop.

P.S. I for one, avoid Full moon 100%. 98% is just fine though.
