So thats about 44 petals for 2 days, or 22 per day... instead of 60.

    So 40 petals a day is tough as I see it... for one nest. Even if you have two nests - it will not be effective as you think...
    well you are setting the worse schedule
    besides if you do bingo , like timber or bronze league, you got boost that can help
    for crops you can plants 20h and 2x1h , so you got 44 instead of 40 petals

    and honestly most of players got 2 nests not 1
    when i started , my 1st priority was to buy 2nd nest , because i was stuck with gemstone i could not hatch

    It's easy-breazy:
    7 farms x 10 days x 24 hours x 2 (bonus) = 3,360
    1 nest x 10 days x 24 hours x 2 (bonus) = 480

    Then you'll have the Pollen Petal, and the Breeding Den, and the Evolution Chamber.

    If you have an empty Nest, you can always buy Air and Water Dragons, or, if you're rich enough, Light and even Olympic, and use them to evolve in the Evolution Chamber (they cost less food than regular dragons, especially Water Dragons are a good value). You'd better use your Nest and leave your Breeding Den unused, than the other way around.

    When you have 4 Nests, 2 Dens and 2 Temples, you can get more than 7,488 Petals, so 3,900 is easy for everyone.

    How to achieve the 24-hour a day crops:
    I try to scedual a shifting scheme. For example, today I start at 10PM a 20hr crop. Tomorrow, at 6pm I harvest, and plant a 5-hour crop. At 11pm I plant another 20hr crop. Next day, at 7pm I start 3 1-hour crops, at 10 pm I plant a 20hr crop. Rinse and repeat. You'll only need one night with 3 hours to play hourly.

    How to achieve the 24-hour Nest:
    For easyness: don't breed, just buy 12h Water-dragons.
    For difficulty: breed, and fill in the gaps with Air (2h), Olympus (7h), Light (9h) and Water (12h) dragons.

    My bug bear with this event is that I actually have all of the dragons apart from the last individual dragon!

    To me Daisy should not be the Community Dragon, heck this was a breedable dragon when it was originally released and is rated Rare, no imagination here!

    I will partake in this event ONLY to help the community as we have just come off a leaderboard and I want some me time. I really don't even care if I get Petal, even if I do really love it (FlatFoot, job well done)

    As you an at least one other said the long long time players are bored. I had the Egyptian dragons, have all the old dragons here. Would be nice if we could get new stuff. Maybe 2 of each event. If you really wanted the old dragons you could choose that event, old players could do something else. I know I'm dreaming here but I get so bored with so little to work for. Again, no dragon is really special anymore. It will come back around for events or for sale.

    I agree that as a long term player I feel a little *****ed that my so called prizes are dragons that I already own. I understand and encourage S8 giving newer players a chance to get old dragons without having to purchase them but surely they can figure out a better way to do that.

    Maybe instead of having the dragons be prizes, we instead use the flowers collected to craft dragons. They could have a selection of dragons to choose from that way people could gather as many or as little petals as they wanted to craft the dragons they don't have without suffering more doubles? The newer dragons could need more flowers and the repeats need slightly less flowers? I'm not sure I'm explaining this well but it's not like it really matters since I doubt S8 will change their event model anytime soon.

    Great idea. I've never considered this. Thank you!

    An easy way is just breed, hatch & evolve 12hr Water dragons which you can easily fit into your daily schedule.
    Buy a Water dragon egg to get your 2nd, evolve to L4 then breed Water+Water to get Water.
    If you have 2nd or 3rd nests, buy Water eggs to fill the nest.
    Evolve the Water dragons after hatching.
    This should give you near 24hrs of Petals production.

    For farms, 20hr + 5hr crops as posted in an earlier post will also maximise Petal production with least effort.
