Default Goddamn weather!

i was saving for my next dev, and i had enough seeds so i decide to plant them. It is beautiful weather, the sun is shining and the birds are chirping, and i cant wait to start my next dev. THEN a f*cking cold front comes through out of nowhere and decides to f*ck me up. Oh great. And im being attacked. So ill spend the funds i do have and give this guy something to think about, after all, i dont mind waiting another 2-3 days for my dev.

Ok, ive been saving again, stolen land, had some stolen, and just been zeroed overnight. But guess what? The dev multiplier has dropped and i can now afford that dev ive been saving for so long And its noon and sunny. Ill just buy back some of my gardeners, and plant most of my seeds

AND YOULL NEVER GUESS WHAT HAPPENS. The same damn thing as last time. Bloody clouds, like they were just waiting to screw me over again

gripe gripe gripe

just waiting for third time lucky now

lol. The lesson to be learned is only ever plant in clear early hours if you have *just* enough to start your dev. Never, ever plant in a sunny day in fall/winter hours.

Always plant on Early Hours, Christmas morning. Your seeds grow double.

I remember ... i dunno round 10 or so, i was just a kid and my parents went on holiday so was at grandmas for a week.
Played the round start in the local library.

Had like top 50 spot or so, but had all these seeds.
I saved for like 4 days, had 3 days of no land grabbing, then planting into heavy cloud.

Annoying!

It's that extra little bit of moisture that helps them grow faster, right CB?

Has happened to me a few times already.
Missed the early hours tick, saw it was full sun at dawn, planted up to start my next dev and then...
The day after tomorrow kicks in, volcanoes errupt from the earth, huge tidal waves smash into the coastlines, twisters rip everything apart and I my bushes wilt!
