[quote][i]Quote from: Penweaver[/i] Hello, Unfortunately, there is not a good set answer. What determines this involves several factors. In my opinion, the three most important: 1. What type of seed are you using? 2. What type of pots are you using? 3. What type of furniture are you using? For example, when I am growing Tree Cuttings to Sapplings, I use porcelin (sp) pots, and I have 21 (or 23, I dont recall) Maple tables in my mog house. I can wait between 2 and 3 days before feeding the crystal and about the same for harvesting it. On the other hand, when I am growing Herb seeds with the same pots but no furnitures, I get about a day, maybe slightly longer (I havent risked it after that). A couple rough rules I go by, if the plant takes one crystals, I try to not let it sit for more than 18 - 24 hours. If it takes 2 crystals, I try to feed the crystals within 2 days, and when harvesting, I let it sit for 2 days or so. When I am growing Sapplings to Ore, I will occassionaly let it sit for as long as 3 days before harvest (all those tables help with this). I will freely admit, however, that I have not attempted to push this to find the limits. At this point, I primarily grow Cuttings --> Sapplings, then Sapplings --> Ore. Cuttings go from 10k a piece to 20k a piece, and sapplings can go from 20k - 40k occassionally. Ore goes for about 350k on my server. I am usually running 50 pots, so I havent really been willing to run the risk of losing my investment to push it. So instead, I push it a little each time I do a run. As a final note, when growing things that take two crystals, having alot of tables will add about an extra day, maybe a day and a half that you can spend waiting to feed or harvest. It also adds about a 30% more growing time, same for the arcane pots. As an example, growing sapplings goes from about 19 days to about 24, or 25 days. Hope this helped. Pen[/quote]
