How do you get "Better-Than-Average Mulcher" Achievements

Please don't just quote me the description of the achievement; I have indeed read it.  I've been plowing weeds from garden and herb patches at least 100 times and I've yet to get the achievement.  Is this a bug, or am I plowing in the wrong place?  For people that have gotten the achievement, where were you using your hoe and what type of a patch was it?

  • Tree patches. They are hard to come by.

  • *sigh* I was fearing as much.  I'm glad I didn't report this as a bug, at least XD

    Thanks Kookaburra!  Looks like I may be cutting down a tree in my yard :P

  • Dang it! I should have cleaned the patch left when I slaughtered that wood tree.

  • I don't know if it will work but maybe you can just chop down one of your own trees and tend the patch as often as possible.  May be worth a try.

  • That's what I did. I have a patch in my backyard that I tend to and as soon as I get the last badge, I will plant my bubble tree. Soon, I hope.

  • yep, just leave your backyard patches empty for a few days.  patches only stay tended for a couple of minutes, so if you just hang around your house tending/meditating/cooking/organizing, you can get a lot of tending in pretty quickly.

  • Or you can do 2 achievements at the same time and tend patches and plant beans, rinse and repeat.

  • Don't forget old Paul Bunion :P To chop down 1009 trees, you get at LEAST 500 patches along the way :P

  • I think that way you don't get XP for the achievements, unless I guess you boost up your mood while leaving your energy zeroed out.
