Farmville Unwithers

If you have played a lot of Farmville then this has probably happened to you at least once. You get busy with real life, work, or go on vacation then return to the game only to discover all your crops have withered. The results can be devastating: in addition to the lost coins, there’s also lost time, which can be especially painful if you’re growing long-term crops like Yellow Melons or Red Wheat. Up until now, you simply had to plow under the crops and start again, perhaps reminding yourself to set a calendar alarm next time.

But now Farmville has answered the problem with a new item called Unwithers. This is an item you can buy in the market for 10 Farmville cash (about $6 in real money). You get a 3-pack of unwithers, and each one will completely restore your entire farm, reviving withered crops. A nice touch is that you can also use it on your neighbor’s farm. Is it worth $2 a shot. We don’t know for sure. It all depends on how much you value your time and Farmville coins.

Crop Mastery in Farmville Explained

Crop Mastery is a very important aspect of the Farmville game, but it can be very difficult to fully understand. There are many variables to Crop Mastery, which makes it both an intriguing and frustrating concept in the game. The basic idea behind Crop Mastery is that you are able to progress in levels as you plant more and more of the same crop. There are three levels of Crop Mastery for each type of seed that you can plant in Farmville. Each of the Crop Mastery levels is earned by completing a certain number of successful harvests, usually numbered in the hundreds or even thousands. You need to be at level 10 or higher to earn levels in Crop Mastery.

The rewards for gaining each level in Crop Mastery are very similar to ribbons. You get coins and XP each time you advance a level. Once you achieve level 3 of mastery in a particular crop, then each time you plant that crop, there is a small chance that the crop will become a Premium Crop. A Premium Crop appears a little bit larger than normal crops and it provides XP upon harvesting instead of just coins. That’s a huge benefit! The amount of XP and the chance of having a premium crop varies from seed to seed. In some cases, there’s as much as a 40% chance that your crops will become premium if you’re a master. In others, such as Artichokes, the chance is only 5%. That’s a whole other reason to never plant Artichokes in this game, but that’s another long story.

When you reach level 3 in crop mastery for a particular crop, you earn a mastery sign for that crop that you can place anywhere on your farm. The sign is a great way to show off to your neighbors that you have become a master of that particular crop.

So which crops should you try to master? Like so many things in Farmville, it really depends on your play style and your overall goals. One thing to remember is that you should really aim for crop mastery with the types of crops that you plan to continue growing the most. So you’ll want to line up your mastery with high-yielding coin and XP crops, such as the various berry plants, like strawberries, raspberries and blueberries. Blackberries are an excellent crop to master later in the game, but require a great number of harvests to achieve level 3 mastery. Pumpkins and Tomatoes, two already high-performing crops for XP gain, are great choices for mastery early on.

Whatever you choose, crop mastery is a fun and exciting way to get more out of your Farmville game. It takes considerable patience and a lot of planting, but soon you can become a master in a number of different crops.

Some Easy Farmville Strategies

It takes a lot of patience to be a farmer. You need to tend to your crops and pay substantial attention to a number of minute details. Success does not happen overnight. Today, people all over are learning to love farming in a new way. It all happens today on Farmville, the new video game that is attracting millions of players across the globe courtesy of Facebook.
Things happen a lot faster in the virtual Farmville game, and crops grow very quickly. You can grow and cultivate many diffferent kinds of crops, including rice, raspberries, wheat, pumpkins and a lot more. However, as any well respected farmer, you must be pretty consistent. You need to follow-through on the care of your crops or they will die and your field will be barren. Although it doesn’t require as much attention as real farming, Farmville requires you to pay vigilant attention and work on your field. You can’t simply plant certain crops and then leave the computer for a full day. If you work full time, your best choice is choosing something that matures slowly so you will not have any unpleasant surprises.
Here are some tips for becoming a succsessful farmer on Farmville
* Sweet raspberries are a fast-grower and take under two hours for a full growth cycle with a payout of nearly fifty coins. Other berries such as blueberries require more time but bring in substantially more coins. Other good choices are strawberries which mature in four hours allowing you to gain 35 coins.
* Raising farm animals such as chickens, cows and sheep, may be fun, but ultimately, will not make you much rich. However, the advantage is that unlike crops they do not go bad and will not need much care.
* Trees are another alternative to crops that don’t require as much care but also don’t have the same return on investment. For instance, growing cherry trees takes two days for a mere gain of 18 coins, apple trees take three days for 28 coins and lime trees take 5 days for 75 coins.
* If you are looking for making some cash, you may visit a neighbor and lend a hand by cleaning up the weeds, raking up leaves or scaring crows away. You gain some extra coins and hands on experience this way.
* Bigger fields of course, will allow you to plant more, therefore will be much more profitable. However, in order to accomplish this you need to have several friends (called neighbors). For instance you need to have at least eight neighbors to expand the farm to a 14×14 lot, or better, 10 neighbors will give you a 16×16 lot. Of course, the more neighbors, the bigger land you may own, therefore the higher the profits.
* You can purchase additional building to get to the next level faster and move the game forward. But the buildings won’t earn you profits like the crops do. However, ultimately, they will just sit there and not bring any profits.
Just like in the real world, farming on Farmville can quickly become a fun hobby but you’ll need to have plenty of time and dedication to earn profits. However, just as the real farming profession, you must use time-tested strategies in order the gain the most out of your crop.
