The garden pot strat is what im doing for the corn so i can get the oil, wont the fertilizer get removed when i harvest it? multi-harvest plants dont get removed like other single harvest ones
Yes you lose the retaining soil if you fully remove the corn plant from the pot. You won't lose it harvesting wheat.
You saved me!! thanks!
I would say, it depends on how much you need and which map you're playing. Beach Farm has easy access to saltwater, this might be better for pots. On other farms the Fish Ponds might be the better option, so you don't have to go to the beach every day to refill the pots. Crabs in a Pond reproduce every 3 days, so you can fish a few out every couple of days. I probably wouldn't clear the Pond, otherwise you might have to do the Pond Quests again.
ponds since crabs aren't a guaranteed catch in the pots
Wheat in greenhouse+ seed maker.
Targeted bait does work in crab pots, so you would have a pretty good chance of getting crabs with it.
Without mariner profession, you have 25.7% chance of getting a crab in a crab pot with crab bait so roughly 1 every 4 days per pot. In a pond they spawn every 3 days. The ponds take up more room and cost more. So I'm thinking crab pots are better especially with Mariner/Luremaster and The Art O Crabbing.
I think they're best combined to avoid relying completely on one source. Crab pots aren't certain, but a crab pond would just provide enough for 2-3 crab cakes a week. Even just the 3 crab pots you get from the crab pot bundle could compete with that.
Really? I used lobster bait once and got everything but lobster.
