#### Gather Ye Plops While Ye May!

Lol! Thanks Devs, I am having so much fun with the garden restoration!
My Herb garden just broke and I got what looks like a good old-fashioned Street Project. Yes, it requires a few things including labor but it is Fun and maybe (Hint, Hint) there will be a trophy for it at some point in the future or at least a good dose of iMG. This was a Large Herb garden and here are the requirements to restore it:
12 Boards, 3 Strings -> 55 Units with a Construction Tool
150 Urth, 30 Peat, 22 Guano, 22 Piggie Plops -> 200 Units with a Shovel
Start gathering now because if you are not hoarding these things (I had all but the Plops) you can get ahead by gathering them. This is the most fun I have had since I picked up all those Pumpkins from my floor at the Housing Reset! Actually that is a lie because the Pumpkins were not Fun but this really is for me. I fed my 4 pigs a lot of produce and got the plops easily. If you have more pigs, it will be no problem at all. Gathering plops took me about 1 min. with only 4 pigs! Now that I know, I will gather and hoard plops every time I harvest so I will be ready for the next restoration which should come soon as I have a large Crop garden that was built at the same time as the Herb garden (though it may have slightly different restoration requirements).

- Candidly, I find the projects a pain. I'd rather kill them off, and spend the img, which is rather a bit easier to gather.

- I haven't worn out anything in my new yard yet (though I bet my herb garden is getting close by now), but I'm kind of looking forward to having a project to restore. It's a neat mechanic!

- For those people who don't have all the skills, be aware that using the construction tool requires Furnituremaking 1, and digging requires Soil Appreciation 4 (i.e. more than you need for just digging piles). If you don't have those skills yet, you'll want them before your gardens break.

- Ack! I've donated all my Urth blocks! Well, more work for me, then. YAY!

- I agree with Crashtestpilot - much easier to just remove. I wish we would use wine to kill a current project, in case we decide we don't want to spend all our resources on it!

- I enjoyed the barnacle and jellisac projects I've done so far.

- Not urth block, it calls for lumps of earth.
  Edit:It says urth in the stuff need but the lumps of earth still say "earth". I wonder if they will make those the same.

- Phew!! I thought blocks.

- It easily took me over 1000 energy, but that kinda worked out because it was almost the end of the day ;)

- So THAT's why someone was complaining about multiple seeds being in a plop - individuals are needed for the projects! Ugh, back to feeding 3 at a time >_<
  Do we perchance get the seeds back when we make the project? (find them whilst we spreading everything out in the new plot, you see)

- NOT Urth BLOCKS! Just Urth! You can dig it in a dirt pile! Sorry, I have trouble with "urth" and "earth", my bags are labeled "Soil".

- I haven't finished yet, just need a little more shoveling and construction. It does use a lot of energy so I am taking a little time but am nearly done. i truly have enjoyed doing this though I can see how many people might prefer to just pay something and be done with it. I always enjoyed projects so these little home projects are fun for me. Maybe we can get friends to help? Have a party!

- I foresee a new way to make currants in Glitch. If you don't have all the skills necessary to repair one of your resources, why not hire someone to come help? I see a handyman group in the making. All we need now are pants that show plumber's crack!

- Those of us with the skill will generally start or even complete a project when we come across one on a home street. No charge necessary (and we'll often fill up your herb plots too : )

- Multiseed plops should be usable for projects, they just cost more crops to make.

- +1 Arabesque! A bunch of people repaired a friend's plot then repaired mine.
  People brought what they had and were glad for the iMG. It was nice!

- I LOVE the projects. So if you have one and don't want to spend the IMG, just holler! Now to go hoard more resources ...

- I wish they would let us get the seed and still have the plop remain behind. Or do you get the seed back when you donate the plops to the project?
  Posted 7 months ago by Tibbi | Permalink
- Yeah the heck with that. I'd rather just remove and restore spending img.

- You can also use wine of the dead to unreap what you sow, and activate a project.

- Do you like to project?
  Posted 7 months ago by Otto Otto | Permalink
- I love the projects. I mean, there's so few things we "have" to do around here, I like having little goals like that. I'm in the process of doing my herb garden right now.

  This made me laugh so hard, because I totally felt that way too. Neverending pumpkins! Also, thanks for the heads up, Brib Annie :)
