Anyone get Farming to produce?

Hotei

I've not done any farming since the season change. Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems that the only way to be able to get harvest from Mandrake and Garlic is to make sure you water shortly after server maintenance. Even with that, it's taking longer to get from planting to harvest than what is stated.

The Devs, @Kyronix ; really need to look at this. As has been established, many of us were watering multiple times a day and not getting results. Looking back, when I was finally able to harvest my garlic was when I was able to water shortly after maintenance the previous day. This may have also been the case the one time I was able to harvest Mandrake, although in that instance I wasn't tracking the time.

Not everyone is able to log in and water within an hour of server maintenance, this should not be a requirement to get the Mandrake and Garlic to progress. I don't have a problem if we need to water perhaps twice a day for those plants, but to require a specific time window of doing it is unreasonable for anyone whose real life schedule does not permit being on between 8:00am and maybe 9:00am Eastern US time.

Really, we should be able to harvest  in the advertised time by watering each plant once within every 24 hour period, but if it were changed to 2 waterings, I could live with that and accept that on my work days I would be in maintenance mode without expectations of a harvest.

I realize life is busy, especially with the US holiday of Thanksgiving, but I hope to hear from Kyronix on this situation sooner rather than later.

Thank you, Tetsujin for your efforts in documenting your experience with farming. It's been very helpful.

Thank you @TETSUJIN, @Hotei, @Pawain for all the work and advice.  

Yes I was able to harvest garlic ONCE.  The one time I was able to log in and water shortly after maintenance.  Also thanks for giving the time of maintenance for NL in central time.

This issue was reported during Beta.  Along with a mage in ocllo. 

I have watched TWO mages in NL call for help in Ocllo trying to beat the crypt guarding quest completed.  Even with advice and help they were unable to complete and gave up.

All the DEVs had to do was send the MR/Garlic loop to the same loop as NIghtshade.

Enough Said.

Well I started a new plot on Thanksgiving.  There's no way I can water anywhere near server up, Ill see how that goes.  4 RL days now.
