#### Shucking more than one flower at a time problem

I was surprised when I shucked 5 purple flowers at one time and only got ONE seed. I then went back to shucking purple flowers individually and got 1-2 seeds - so I figured it was a bug - refreshed and retried again - shucking 5 flowers at one time and again ONE seed. grrrrrr... why have the option to shuck more than one flower if the yield is going to be so low?

- Seconded; I too learned the hard way that you have to shuck one by one...

- Same here. Not to mention that I am afraid to 'fail' and destroy multiple flowers at once.

- It makes no difference if you shuck 1 or 5 herbs at a time, as the outcome is based on the same chance. One should get 6-8 seeds on average from shucking 5 Purple Flowers, so 1-2 is really unlucky.
  Purple Flower, Silvertongue and Yellow Crumb Flower all grow 3 herbs per plot, and thus have the '%-based shucking' mechanic to balance them against "regular" herbs that grow only 1 per plot.
