So, from what I understand, if I want the feathers of my chocobo to be white I would have to give him one of each fruit multiple times till I get the desired color? Ugh...

if we go off the 255-255-255 scale then yellow is 255-255-0. i have 4 light blue plants growing as we speak so i will know soon enough because it will immediately start turning whiter (hoping each fruit ads about +/- 50 on this scale)

If we are limited to paint colors already in game... boy, there's a lot of sht browns to try to avoid. :/

Well so far I've only seen things that have a growth cycle of either 3, 5, 7, or 10 days (real time). My guess would be 5 for these. If you want to speed it up you can buy Fishmeal fertilizer from the merchant in the housing area, you can fertilize each plant once every hour and each fertilization shortens the amount of time it takes to grow slightly (how much it takes off is dependant on how long the plant itself takes to grow, but to give you an idea it's about a half hour if it's a 5 day growth cycle)

Dye sprouts reached stage 2 in about 12 hours and stage 3 in about 24 hours. I guess, they might be ready at 36-48 hours. We fertilise them now and then.

Might be the fastest growing plant out there then! Can you post yield results with what soil you used as well once they're harvested?

/bump I'm interested in seeing what happens.

White Chocobo costs a friend or 50$...

A. please post your photos after the 234325243 hours of watching grass grow. I'm quite interested what one coat of choco paint looks like.

B. I hope they treat the Legacy and Draught chocobos as chocobos, everytime I see chocobo content I have a hard time seeing why a chocobo is not treated as a chocobo.. XD (I imagine the legacy mark on the beak and the barding would be exclusive, and then same deal for draught barding and size-- size assuming chocobo breeding never comes about).

My plants should be ready in 8h or so, posting the results tomorrow.

I spilled spot remover on it and it vanished. <Insert groans here>
