oh no - I've got it - you use the honey and the fruit (or grapes) - and you have to select jam type.......wonder how much jam sells for

simpson · 04/12/2009 09:48

goes off to CL to investigate

Don't think I have any room on my ranch for more machine type things

I have a cow & cheese machine in my gift box waiting till I can expand again...

Will get cranberries 2nd star today on FV

alwayslookingforanswers · 04/12/2009 09:55

right - can report - grape jam only gets you the same as wine (and takes the same length of time) so probably not worth bothering with.

Orange Jam sells for 57 - so 24 coin profit
Apple Jam sells for 37 - 17 coin profit
Cherry Jam sells for 45 - 20 coin profit

(profit based on the selling price of the fruit and the honey separately).

I'm about 120k short of getting my last expansion. Once I've got that I'm going to redo my farm.......

lostinwales · 04/12/2009 10:08

Does anyone want to be my friend!? (feel sooo childish asking that!) I can be a neigbour on Farmville or a Zoo keeper if anyone is addicted to The Zoo like I am! My poor poor neglected children! lou . y . manse @ googlemail.com

I am seriously that some of you can make wine or jam.

Ladygooga · 04/12/2009 10:17

Oh i need some more neighbours too please

davephilalice @ blueyonder.co.uk

alwayslookingforanswers · 04/12/2009 10:17

hmm - it has just occurred to me though that perhaps grape jam is better than wine as you get 2xp for making it rather than the one for wine.........

lostinwales · 04/12/2009 10:34

Ladygooga I have just attempted to make you a neighbour via email, I wonder if it's worked. Full time job this farming and zookeeping, I've got three tabs open on my computer so I can flip between FB and MN without logging in again, between that and texting I've got no idea how people with full time jobs ever cope.

simpson · 04/12/2009 10:35

can't get on my ranch.

keep getting error message and asking me to reload

alwayslookingforanswers · 04/12/2009 10:49

I'm going to convert my farm tomorrow for some quick xp/money (will have to be tomorrow as I've just replanted corn and tomatoes )

simpson · 04/12/2009 11:15

can we store stuff on CL?

Machines etc I mean??

alwayslookingforanswers · 04/12/2009 12:14

don't think so - just have to sell and re-buy

simpson · 04/12/2009 12:37

will hold off buying anything then till I have expanded then.

Am over halfway there on the 75K

nymphadora · 04/12/2009 12:50

Anyone on Cafe world? Is it just me having problems with ths waiters? I seem to have to sack them to make them work

flier · 04/12/2009 16:35

Ladygooga and lostinwales, I've just sent you both a friend request.
Stretch I have an SJ on my MN FV list, but its a colour photo of a mum and daughter, do you have 4 DCs?

aberita · 04/12/2009 20:21

lostinwales and Ladygooga - I've also just a friend request to both of you.
Have finally got my Local Celebrity blue ribbon now - and just need another 10,000 to expand my farm, so hopefully tomorrow...

simpson · 05/12/2009 12:08

FV playing up for me today and keeps saying it has been enhanced etc

Niecie · 05/12/2009 22:56

Jam on CL? Inspired. How many products can you get from 6 crops?

Whatever next? Do you think it would offend too many people to make sausages out of the cows, and shepherds pie out of the sheep?

What we really need is to be able to sell our FV products to our CW cafe's. Make the whole thing totally interactive. Or maybe supply veggie boxes to the apartments in Yoville. That would be interesting.

No idea what level I am on on anything at the moment. I went up a level on CL earlier but I can't remember if it was 20 to 21 or 21 to 22.

Still 25K short of an expansion though. Maybe by Monday?

alwayslookingforanswers · 07/12/2009 21:29

ahh but it's not 6 products - as you use the trees for jam as well

I moved up to level 47 on FV this morning, will get my Lavender mastery on Wednesday morning

CL - will be moving up to level 30 in the next hour or so (just got to finish making my jam)

and on Country Story I will move up to level 31 (at LAST) tomorrow morning

simpson · 08/12/2009 08:17

Have given up on quick harvesting products on FV, got bored

Should get mastery sign for pink roses today and soy beans either today or tomorrow...

And will level up on FV today

simpson · 08/12/2009 09:43

woo hoo only £4K needed for 75K expansion on CL

alwayslookingforanswers · 08/12/2009 12:17

woohoo - got to level 31 on Country Story. Reckon it's going to be several weeks until I get to the next level, if not 2 months!

persephonesnape · 08/12/2009 13:18

Anyone wanting to friend me for FV - I am very attentive and shall scare away your gophers!

dahlia(dot)black(at)live(dot)com

I'll go through this thread and try adding some of you lovely peoples in the next day or so (dreams wistfully of hugest farm ever!)

flier · 08/12/2009 14:43
