Wood trees do not count for "Seed to Scythe" quest

I saw a note from 50 days ago about wood trees not counting for the "Seed to Scythe" quest.  The resolution at that time from kevbob was that they should count.

I got the quest, grew a brand new wood tree to full grown (using two bottles of fertilidust to do it), but never got a notice that the tree had become full grown, and it never counted towards the quest.

Is this a possible bug in the wood tree, a possible correction that needs to be made to the quest, or is it a correction that needs to be made between keyboard and chair?

Thanks

  • I'm also interested in at what point a wood tree is "full grown".  Cos there's a badge for that.  And everyone needs badges.

  • One of those quests, can't remember which one of the tree growing one it is, will not count if you use fertiledust on it.
    Maybe it is that one?

  • I also have wood tree that is not counting for this quest.

  • Wood trees count for Seed to Scythe, but Fertilidust (and Fertilidust Lite) does not.

  • FWIW if anyone is still monitoring this thread, I planted 4 wood trees and one bubble tree.  I used two bottles of fertilidust and only the bubble tree counted.  This was a couple of days ago so the wood trees would have matured this far on their own anyway.

    So it would appear:  wood trees do not count, fertilidust does work for the quest.

  • I too had a wood tree that never counted for the quest.
    I waited and waited and all the other trees I had planted grew and counted.
    In the end I chopped it down and planted something else, which did count.

  • OK I'm stuck on this quest. Got 5 trees in my back garden but I only managed to "mature" one. The others, regardless how much I pet and water them, refuse to give me credit for the quest. What do I need to do? Should I pet/water them every 5 minutes?? Also, if I harvest them does it reset the growing somehow? Should I refrain from harvesting?

  • @John Galt I got a wood tree to count for this quest. I had to fertilidust it to the second-to-last branch, then pet/water until the last branch appeared (at which point I got credit for that tree). 

    @Zoidblum, be sure that these were trees that you planted yourself and pet/water them at the last stages into maturity. Harvesting shouldn't matter if you pet and water afterwards. I only used fertilidust for part of the wood tree; it might take a couple of days for your trees to grow into maturity.

  • I've had these trees for 2-3 weeks, been patting/watering them with every opportunity but I still didn't get credit for that quest. I planted them myself. I'm tempted to poison them and start over.

  • @Zoidbum If it's been that long, I would probably poison them and start over. Or try another type of tree. Good luck!

  • @Millie yeah I might have to start over. I have 3 types of trees: fruit, wood and bean. Problem is, I don't remember which one matured. Oh, they were all planted at the same time.

  • new tweet from glitch log. sounds like this may be fixed.

  • We did make a change today that allows you to use the Fertilidusts for the wood trees, so hopefully this will be a little clearer when you are playing. :)
