Yes. Half their total. Stupid me. Middle of the night and insommnia.
It is now getting harder as have no room for the first tab crops.

I already reached 50+ for wheat, corn, carrots, soy beans and sugar canes, so I can grow these legally on my spare land. But still, 50 fields isn't enough to grow all the other crops continiously at max capacity. Hm. I think I need to make a spread sheet to figure out how to use these fields ideally.

I thought we were not growing any of the 11 crops on the other land until we had 50 of each?

Are either of you finding that the timing is quite a bit out? My strawberries were over 10 minutes late!

I just had a thought, and had to voice it before I sleep. Your most important crops for production don't take very long to produce, you should have them all over 50 within the first day. Once over 50, start producing them in your spare fields, and production continues. If you play it right, Filling queues and what not. It should have little or no effect on production, just make the things that you can! Yes, that's my idea, too. It's only a few things that you won't be able to produce for more than half a day - one day. So, to win you have to plan carefully and be very committed to this planning. And to get through it without a lot of 'damage' done, you need to prepare ( stock up certain products). And maybe buy more than you are used to, also depending on boat and truck orders you either want to play, or send off. Hm. Questionable. Above is what Tina and I wrote about this matter, but hippo replied I think that you should only use the initial 50 patches for the first 11 crops until you have 50 of each in your silo.

Hm. Don't think I agreed, but I probably should have, LOL. Ok, so now, to make me get back in line, I should probably sell some of these crops Duh. I should sell part of what I have ( wheat, corn, carrots, soy beans, sugar cane), until I have how many left?

Thinking some more, I think I may not deserve to be punished.... ? Because, it was very easy to get to 50 for wheat, corn, carrots, soy beans and sugar canes, when we just had started. I had reached these amounts already, when I went to sleep yesterday. I don't / didn't need to make animal feed, because all animal products are found for sale easily ( eggs, bacon, milk, goats milk, wool). I don't need more sugar, because I prepped well and have around 40-50 of each type of sugar incl. syrup. I can choose to ignore my horses and donkeys during this challenge. I didn't make any cakes or pies etc. containing carrot or wheat, since the start of the challenge. Sooooo, if I bring the amounts back to 50 now, where I already was when I went to sleep yesterday, are we good?
