The "exact" requirement for rank 5 Furrow

[Karah]

I know this has been posted before, and it was found out that is in indeed possible to acquire the KI for the 5th rank furrow.

I would just like to ask.... how exactly is it achieved?

I've been back officially 30 days now, and gathered "grain seeds" (6 hour grow time) with the mithra assistant (5 items per furrow) more than twice per 24 hour span.

That is equal to 30(days)*5(items)*2(furrows)*2(gathers per day) = 600 items (minimum).

I still haven't gotten the 5th Key Item yet? Seems a little(LOT) excessive to me.

Is the requirement 1000?
Is it consecutive gathers?
Is it times harvested (with a seed growth time modifier?)
Would I be better off growing a 24 hour seed and only harvesting once per day?

I know (believe me) that being cryptic and hidden things is your favorite past time, but I'd like a little clarity just a hint maybe?

I would like a knowable goal to look forward to achieving, instead of a random oh hey you finished that days ago, you should've known.

-Thanks in advance.

Number of harvests.

Plant something that grows in the shortest amount of time. Harvest and repeat.

That's literally what I'm already doing, and obviously it's not working, or at least it's e...x...t...r...e...m...e...l...y...s...l...o...w

Actually reading a post should be a requirement before posting.

try Revival Tree Root it has a 1h grow time and Arborscent Seed is 2h

Well sorry I tried to help. I even resisted pointing out there has already been a post from the man in charge of Mog Gardens about this very issue.

But you know... Reading.

"A post" with "information" about how it "might work".

I want, an exact, as the title says number of harvests, ya know, "reading".

And still no one has an answer.

someone said 887 items have to be harvested to get rank 5. With 2 npc's on 'go for lots of loot' and 'fertilizing' the furrows with crystals, you can get 6 items out of Revival tree roots. If you harvested them every hour for 8 hours a day on 2 furrows it would give you 96 items a day. It would take 9.2 days at that rate to go from 0 to 887.

Awesome, totally appreciate that info.

Do you know when/where that was posted? I quit for 60 days ish and stopped givin a shit for a while, I missed it.
