oh , and i'm on level 14 already , and about to get level 15 as soo as i finish this one quest planting 25 tri-indigos....

level 16 now , and i can tell you that the Magic don't go in the yard....

[PhoenixRoseCS4]

If I spend any length of time in another window, it requires a reload 

Going a little slower for me because I'm not going to spend real money on the boosts and whatever. I'm level 14 right now.

you mean the server reload thing?.....

yeah , i've had that pop up once or twice , no real loss of play though....it only took a few seconds....

and yeah , the going is pretty derned slow without having credits to spend to fly though the game....

i don't know about you , but i really don't have $20 to drop to play a game at this time ,

real life property taxes are coming up.....

level 18 now myself , taking over two hours for the energy bar to recharge....

also , noticed a new bug a minute ago , planted a Candy in the bottom right pot in the warehouse , and it had the earth disturbed like there was a seed in it , but when i scrolled over it , it didn't highlight like there was a seed there , it highlighted like it was empty....so i jumped to another farm and jump right back to the warehouse , and the same pot was displaying undisturbed soil....

i lost $190 when i'm surviving on scraps , that hurt....

[PhoenixRoseCS4]

I've had that happen when I tried to harvest a couple things, which cost me energy. Really not cool. Seems to be related to the server reload problem; the game lags out and doesn't seem to actually register what's been done, except it still takes its price for it. I'll probably repload before I do anything to keep that from happening.

[koohhsif]

yeah , i had one other bug happen last week , but that was kinda benificial....

i planted verde or something in the yard , and it looked like it didn't take , so i hit it again , and again , and again , until i got fed up and went to the main screen , but when i got there , the exclamation point popped up so i went back in and there was a full grown plant , so i harvested it , went back out , and there was another again , and again , and again....

i think Ceej must've fixed that one though , cuz i tried to duplicate it the next day , and it didn't happen....

anyways , i just wanted to say that i broke down and got a $10 facebook card from wallyworld last night on the way home from work....couldn't really afford it , but i knew the stuff i had planted sunday would have had to have been wilted by now , plus i was really getting tired of running out of money everytime i tried to plant a round....

i'm thinking about authoring a chart in here , of what the strains are , boosts , energy , stuff like that ya know....

Do eet, but be forewarned, you'll get everything just right and then they will change everything......

[noobull]

If you are serious about it, then you could gather information here, so others may contribute of course, then post the whole shebang in a new thread.

You could probably use the comments to drum up some helpers.

[koohhsif]

just harvested my first Zombie!....

can't wait for Dragon....

[PhoenixRoseCS4]

Yeah, I honestly might just be done with this. The "action" restriction via energy limits and the constant need to reload is severely cutting into my enjoyment. It's a shame, since the new varieties look interesting, but not nearly interesting enough to keep running at the frustration wall.

[noobull]

It sounds like Hemp Tycoon is a gateway game <_<

[Cinderella99]

I agree with the energy limit and the constant reloading is really hurting game play. I'm sticking with it cause I do want to see the new varieties (Mystic is really pretty and Zombie is just cool). I found avway to get free credits but not enough to justify buying energy boosts. I want to save my credits for the seeds. I would pay for this game only if I could play it on my iPad or iPhone.

[koohhsif]

i get the feeling that "paying for it" is going to be the biggest complaint on this game....

i know that i myself have already felt this sting , and i'm trying to be as frugal as possible with what few credits i have....

i can see an OCD type person easily losing control an putting $100 a day into the machine.....

Ceej , i think that making Zombies and Dragons and such purchasable with only credits was a bad move....

maybe to unlock these items with credits , but after they're unlocked then to be able to purchase them with in-game monies....

[edit]

i'm looking down the list at all the products , and i'm seeing a lot of missed opportunities!....

like , putting Berry in the Tea , Ice Cream , Soda , Cupcakes , Candies , not to mention the Pineapple doing the same....

[Cinderella99]

If you have an iPhone, iPad or android you can earn free credits from appdog.com. It's not enough credits for buying lots of energy boosts or extras but it's good for getting the special seeds and revitalizing dead plants. I'm at level 21 with my energy bar up to 30 so running out of energy is not a problem anymore. I just have to make sure I space out harvesting and production times. I LOVE my candy factory. I wish I could live in one!

[PerthUbar]

Wow! That's great! Thanks for putting in a table form.

If any players are looking to add friends I am known as Perth Ubar on FB. I'm sure others will be this way soon looking for contacts soon. 

I am at LVL 20.

I'm also not a fan of the Energy restriction, and even less of a fan of the pay to play seeds and decorations. I have just reached the "Garden of the Undead" challenge and won't be able to complete it. I would be happier if the was an alternative way to access these seeds (like the Alien seed for example) or by reaching a certain level or completing a goal.

[edit]done , but i only inputed the one that have 2 of 2 met or 3 of 3 conditions met , cuz if they're lacking one or two , then that's not "ideal"....mmm'kay?....

yeah , totally!!....

i was wanting to find a place for a column just for the places to grow for Ideal Conditions....

it's mandatory for that one quest , i passed a ways back....

i'm level 23 , and i hate to say it , but you have to get some credits....

i saw on a sidebar in that recommended area of the gamepage that you can get credits for 80%off right now , but it has to be with paypal , and i don't/won't have that....

it's a quest....

send me one everyday!....

if you want to grow them , they show up at the very end of the seed list , right behind Queen....

i'm about to add them to the stat chart now....

[PerthUbar]

It's a good thing the pay seeds aren't needed for any combinations. I'm not about to give failbook OR PayPal my CC details! 

BTW I am accepting any and all Alien seeds too!
