24h maintenance and gardens

[Zantitrach]

Maintenance freezes retainer ventures, so I think it will freeze plant status too.

Problem solved?

We have had several gardens with Jute planted that turn purple after only 8 hours. so 24 hours is not an accurate time. Yes, we checked the logs, yes they were tended and fertilized.

Never seen this happen after Jute has been tended. Are you sure you guys actually "tended" them? Fertilizing them does not count.

Probably an exaggeration. I plant jutes regularly, tending to them once every 24 hours. As Gil said, they probably counted fertilizing as tending, otherwise, lies.

I've been noticing plants going purple much sooner than in the past recently as well. Under 24 hours sooner, which is why there is reasonable concern for some folk about this long maintenance.

This isn't a confusion of fertilizing and tending in my case. I know the difference, yet I can water my plants regularly at 4pm, then have people the next day messaging me at noon or so asking why our plants are purple/dying.

So a few times I've had plants go purple under 24 hours, should I call you a liar then because my experiences are different than yours?

Feel free, I don't know the circumstances to your set of dilemmas so I cannot comment on that. I'm merely denying the fact that jutes specifically go purple in 8 hours. I didn't once say your plants went bad under 24 hours

Was also curious about this.

I tended plants at 1am last night before bed, ready for fan fest and they were all purple 23 hours later, 2nd time pirple now so if the maintenance doesn't freeze status I'll loose them on the 3rd purple, would really like confirmation here

Fertilizing does not count as tending. I have never seen a plant turn purple before 24 hours. Some people prob assume fertilizing counts when it doesn't.

If people assumed that their plants would die before harvest, because they would never tend and only fertilize.

I know the difference between tending and fertilizing and I've had this happen to me.

Just mentioning, it looks like they made a post about this on the Japanese forums saying that gardens will continue to grow during maintenance. Don't take my word for it though; I don't read Japanese.
