Make sure you also have logs in stock to run the grill in dry season. They also provide different nutrition bonuses.Ī second farm with potato fields is very useful for the longer second dry season. In the dry season, once your farmers run out of work due to the drought, you can reassign them to pick berries if any berries are still left.Ī 60 plot carrot farm will get you through the first dry season just barely, but having a mix of carrots and potatoes is probably best. Once dry season starts, prioritize harvesting instead. I recommend having your farmers prioritize planting during the wet season, so they replant each field right after harvesting it. Note that grilled potatoes take up 4 times more storage space, so grill them as you need them. Potatoes cannot be eaten raw, so you need a grill to process them into grilled potatoes. Basically you want enough plots to have the farmers harvesting or planting constantly once the first crops are ready. Assign two workers to the farm (default is only one).Ī single farm can support about 60 carrot plots or 80 potato plots. Cycle two then starts.ĭry season two starts on cycle 2 day 19 and ends on day 33 (so it lasts 15 days) Foodīuild a farm on day 3, so it is ready on day 4.
Make sure you have food and especially water stored up before the dry seasons start.ĭry season one starts on day 19 and ends on day 21 (so it lasts 3 days). The crops will also die after some days, but any crops that were ready for harvesting can still be harvested until they die (berries stay alive longer than carrots and potatoes). Once this happens, your land is no longer irrigated and all crops will stop growing. In the dry season the river will quickly dry out.
The game has two seasons, wet season and dry season.
