Provide a warning about garden crops dying during extended server downtime

[Penthea]

Yeah that's great game design, expect players to assume the worst.

I didn't say it was good game design. I'm just telling you how to best mind yourself when you only have conflicting information as your guide.

Who cares if its most seeds? If ANY seeds, particularly the most important seeds, are affected by this issue, then its a problem.

Most important is a bit subjective but I get what you're saying. I agree this is an issue but the truth is a minority have access to housing, an even smaller minority garden, even smaller than that cross plant and even smaller regularly plant complex or 6 days + seeds to be caught any time extended maintenance happens.

I'm just being realistic here. A very tiny percentage of players are experiencing issues with plants and servers being down. The best we can hope for is a warning about it when maintenance is announced but I have to admit I would be surprised if it got enough attention for that to happen.
