I've brought up this very issue before with other crops and thought it had been fixed. Every other 1-day crop takes 22 hrs to mature, but the new Bellflower takes 24 hrs, which makes it an annoyance to plant it with other 1-day crops. What happened to consistency??

Oh no. Now my garden is going to bloom out of sync tomorrow. Nice.

Does TL know what "consistency" means?

Well forget-me-nots and red carnations were 24 hrs, but TL changed them to 22 hr. I think Shamrocks might still be 24 hrs.

For trees, peppermint and breadfruit were 24 hrs and changed to 22 hrs. Magic Egg and Shamrock trees are 24 hrs.

Red carnations were changed form 24 to 22 hrs soon after the release, when it was brought to TL's attention. The rest were changed after I mastered them.

Maybe if a mod passed this on to TL, they might change the bellflowers to 22 hrs. Or wait long enough for TL to change them to 22 hrs.

I prefer 22 hr 1-day crops. I do not like the 24 hr crops, it messes up my times.

They can't count, seriously. How hard is it for them to remember that when they do a 1 day crop they should input the timing to 22 hours? How about a 2 day crop to 46 hours? Is it really that difficult for them or do they have someone inputting this code that can't freaking count?

I can make it awhole lot easier on them, just do 3-12 hour crops only. I don't give a darn what nmishii wants. Since TL can't do this right, then stick with short-term crops. They don't mess those up, but that could be because they don't even FREAKING GIVE THEM TO US!!!!

I recall that TL messed up on Rhubarb. That was a short crop.

That wasn't a timing error though, that was a watering error and then they removed it completely, after spending the time to fix it. Why bother fixing something when 2 weeks later you'll just yank it? Yes, that makes a whole lot of sense.

TL probably had no intention to yank it, because they most likely didn't see it as a valentine's crop like the rest of it. It could have been accidentally yanked, and then they didn't want to spend the effort to give it back.

Maybe it messed up their whole 22hour day system having those rhubarbs.

It's hard to plant stuff not knowing whether it is really 2 days or not quite 2 days or 24 hours or 22 hours.My farm bloomed out of sync this evening and messed me up. :rolleyes:

That is not even funny nmishii. You've got me thinking up all these conspiracy theories now. :(

Ok I lied, you did make me giggle, but I'm still thinking up conspiracy theories. :p

Yes I can see how these short-term crops would mess up their long-term ones. :rolleyes:

I've actually seen a few farms this AM that had a row planted, then a row not planted, then a row planted, and etc.....I wonder if those people planted one plot of something, checked the timing, then sold the plot. Started up their 24 hour crop, left the spaces near it blank for the 2 hours they would need to start planting the 22 hour crops. This way they all bloom at once. Either way I doubt they enjoy having to keep their farm like that, for any given time. What a pain having to do that, honestly. :(

I think everyone prefers the 22-hr. it allows for a cushion in case your not quite in top of things one day.

Anyone know if this has been corrected with this weekly update? The last similar fix came with a weekly update. My already planted bellflowers are still at 24-hr, but was hoping maybe any future plantings will be at the standard 22-hr.

Since we're doing definitions, here's a couple for ya:

CONSISTENT
- adjective
1. agreeing or accordant; compatible; not self-contradictory: His views and actions are consistent.
2. constantly adhering to the same principles, course, form, etc.: a consistent opponent.
3. holding firmly together; cohering.
4. Archaic. *fixed; firm.

STANDARDIZE
- verb (used with object)
1. to bring to or make of an established standard size, weight, quality, strength, or the like: to standardize manufactured parts.
2. to compare with or test by a standard.
3. to choose or establish a standard for.
- verb (used without object)
4. to become standardized.

Each of these concepts is vital to a successful business, but they apparently escaped TL.

Nope, not updated to 22 hours yet. I had a free spot of land so just planted one to check.

I still don't understand why they can't just get it right the first time. How hard is it to be CONSISTENT with the 1 day items, sheesh. :rolleyes:

They may not have "passed it on to the developers" Did you really believe that putting threads in the Feedbacks and Bugs would ensure there would be an action taken?

There is no post in here from kooky saying she passed it on to the CMs, or from the CMs saying they passed it on to the developers.

Can a mod pass this on the issue of the bellflowers being 24 hrs to the CMs, or can a CM ensure this is changed?

Well we're told to put our issues in this forum, and since most of the TL mods are supposed to be checking Feedback/Bug forum for legitimate issues, and the Title of the thread pretty much SCREAMS out that there is an issue here, of COURSE we'd think they'd look at the thread without us having to POKE them with a stick.

My goodness, what were we thinking?? :p

Well the last time we were told "it's by design", they still switched it back to 22 hours. Oh well, maybe by the time I get around to planting them they'll be fixed, and another crop would have come out with 24 hours and we'll start this whole cycle over again.

Different day, different crop, same issue. Business as usual as far as I'm concerned. Nothing surprises me anymore.

Which they probably didn't bother changing as I'm sure those will be pulled by the end of the summer, if not before. Those were on the list the last time this happened, and they ignored them and only fixed the most recent crop that was a problem at the time.

Well they fixed the problem with rhubarb only to pull the crop a very short time later. So they do fix problems with seasonal crops.

You're having too much fun pouring salt on that still open wound of mine, aren't ya? :p

But you're right, didn't they fix that only days before they yanked it? Taking all that time to fix something just to pull it, boggles my mind.

I think it was days. And I didn't master it either. I was more than half way to mastering it. Like everyone else, I was focusing on the crops that I thought were seasonal and would be pulled, and never dreamed that rhubarb was such a romantic Valentine's Day crop.
