Personal Garden Plots

Confirmed 9 with Thanalan soil. I have a couple of plants now in Shroud. I'm trying grade 1 and grade 3 to see if there's a different yield. Crops mature in about 2-1/2 days. I fertilize and tend crops at least 3 times a day.

Even if they still want to restrict these things to FC housing, some changes still need to be made. Way too little space/ resources to go around.

Basic krakka root should not need to be mass growed on FC land. Allow a furniture such as a single potted plant (indoors), with per room limit, so people can get 18 krakka root/ 3- days for their own use.

Yea Krakka seeds planted with grade 3 shroud soil gives 18 Krakka Roots... however tho even in a Medium House with 2 gardens and over 40 members. It's still not enough. 3-4 days to grow 18 per harvest. If you fill up both beds (16 plots) with nothing but krakka and shroud soil you'll get a total of 288 roots... now divide that by 40 members. that's 7 food each to last them another 3-4 days. So if that's from two full garden plots... then think about needing to grow materials for stable brushes that take up to 5 days to grow. Let alone other things like cross planting to get different foods for people.

So in all honesty SE should give personal rooms like 3 personal gardening pots (they can't cross to make seeds) so they can grow their own stuff. I say 3 cuz if you can have more than that ppl are going to abuse that and over flood markets with items. But 3 is more than enough. At least that way the FC garden can pump out seeds and members can take and grow in their room while the outside garden continues to be used to pump out more seeds for people to grow. That way not only are people getting seeds of their own to grow for their own stuff but the FC garden outside is able to continue to produce and harvest w/out needing to divert from it's course.

They should just scrap the whole system and make a gardening class. Or Farmer class.

Why not add a solarium to the personal rooms? You wouldnt be able to see the outside environment so it'd be easy to render but allow players to place a few outdoor furnishings.

Got 9 from other soils, 11 from Grade 1 shroud, 13 from grade 2, and 18 from grade 3. I have been able to unload all of the Krakka that I have harvested, so it's been a decent cash crop thus far, but paying for a broom - that's another thing all together.

Even just a 3-space window box garden would be nice for personal housing. People can either grow food or try for a single crossbreed.
