Can't plant seeds on previously used field

Postby Wournos » Mon Apr 29, 2013 3:27 pm

I have planted corn on two fields enough times to boost a meter to 100. Today I decided that I should stop with corn for a while and use the fields for cotton. I Filled both fields with 2 humus each but I was not able to sow my cotton seeds on both fields. Only the one. I had a total of 50 seeds. Both fields have upkeep at 50%. Yet I can't plant my seeds on one of the [curse] fields.
I logged out and back in. I have also tried to sow corn from a previous batch. Nothing works.

It's not the first time this exact field has been troublesome. Problem is, I don't remember what allowed me to plant seeds in the end the first time.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Sometimes the upkeep display betrays you. It may show as "50%" but it actually may have a fractional value such as 50.01 and thus you would need a fraction of 1 extra seed in order to plant, or even an additional humus.

Try sowing with more seeds. And try adding one additional humus if that didnt work then try more seeds.

Have you tried dropping one more humus? Are there items in/on the field?

Could be that. I already had this problem where I cannot plant my field with 25 seeds in my inventory. Then I add 25 more seeds in my bag and I' m able to plant the field... but only 25 seeds are consumed... :?: :roll: :evil:

Yes and no.

This was apparently the problem. I always have exactly 50 seeds on me when sowing. The strange thing, though, is that it still took 25 seeds only from the 50 batch.

Thanks for the pointers.
