Milkweed For People Who Won't Read the Wiki!!!

ShadowsSoldier · 2018-03-15 16:04:10

Milkweed has 5 stages.

1. Milkweed Sprout.
2. Milkweed.
3. Flowering Milkweed.
4. Fruiting Milkweed.
5. Milkweed Debris.
6. Milkweed Stump.

The most important stage we are to talk about is FRUITING! Stage 4.

ONLY PICK ON STAGE 4 FRUITING!

When picked on STAGE 4 FRUITING, it will REGROW, no need to plant again, no need to throw seeds all over the place.

PLEASE LEARN THIS AND STOP PUTTING SEEDS EVERYWHERE AROUND A PLANT THAT WILL REGROW ITSELF, IT IS A WEED!\

Sorry for the caps but if I see one more YouTube video where someone picks it at the wrong stage and or scatters the seeds all over after picking it at the proper time I will seppuku! That is all happy farming XD

Game is about furthering the society, not necessarily about you XD

Think bigger picture than just yourself.

Also consider that if you choose to play again, you may be one of those future generations that got screwed by your own previous self killing the plant.

Many times even experienced players go to pick Fruiting Milkweed and it changes last second AFTER you click on it. I've had it change AFTER i clicked on it when i was adjacent to it. Probably a bit of latency there, too but it does happen. Your best bet if you want milkweed is to find one and grow it yourself.

The seeds on the ground that you see is other people picking a fruiting milkweed and doing the right thing, and leaving the seeds there for you to grab and make your own milkweed farm. No reason to complain about that. People aren't stupid, they're helping you out.

Lastly, the only time it's ok to pick non fruiting milkweed intentionally is when you have more soil than space, and you want to regrow many milkweeds in a limited space and limited time.

I wholeheartedly agree with you Sheph, I made a suggestion email stating that it would be better if once the milkweed reached its fruiting stage it would not revert back to flowering, thus removing those accidental clicks, where you want to smack yourself, and begrudgingly go get compost and water to replant your crop.

I realize that the back and forth, fruiting/flowering/fruiting/flowering etc is intended because that's how it works in nature, but by god its annoying when you know what your doing and still mess up.

No change needed, it's part of learning the game

I try to scatter seeds in case someone ELSE comes along in a future epoch and picks the milkweed when it is NOT fruiting. Not sure how long the seeds last, however. Regardless if it's done in the wilderness where there are no settlements, it's not harming anyone.

ShadowsSoldier · 2018-03-16 01:31:24

Seeds de-spawn after 1 Epoch aka (60 years and or 1 hour), which is also the length of time it takes for the plant to regrow by itself after picking it when its fruiting, unless you are planning on planting them in you're lifetime is there really a point, other than wasting your own time, any milkweed picked while fruiting produces infinite seeds from the debris so if people are planning on making milkweed farms its rather easy. So like you said if its out in nature with no one around, no i guess you aren't harming anyone your just wasting your own time.

They de-spawn in boxes and baskets as well, same timer.

Do wild carrot seeds despawn, as well?

ShadowsSoldier · 2018-03-17 00:51:26

Yes sorry for the late reply, work sucks XD

I'M ON A TIGHT SCHEDULE HERE GOT IT!?

Ha. Just joking. Are you sure that wild carrot seeds despawn? It doesn't look like it, in the recipe list…

ShadowsSoldier · 2018-03-17 01:31:34

Ill have to check, but i thought they did, when i set up my farms I leave no excess, 1 seed plot to 9 carrot.

ShadowsSoldier · 2018-03-17 01:32:42

Checked the timers,
All seeds despawn Except for carrots seeds, wild or domestic, its almost like the game is trying to say we need to farm XD

Almost as if someone invented those seeds to be like that.... As if they were DESIGNED to be like that... the inteligent design thing, you know? The god? AKA Jason?
