Question about the "whack dead trees" badges

(please note, I'm working toward the badge with my own trees at my house. No public trees are involved)

Are there any conditions applied to the tree being poison for it's whacking to apply toward the badge?

Do the trees need to be full grown before they are poisoned in order to be dead for the whacking?  Or can they be poisoned as soon as the seedling turns into a little tree?

  • Anytime. I don't think wood trees count.  You do need to have a good enough mood to apply the poison.

  • Thanks for the reminder wood trees don't count.

    Mood's not a problem when you poison trees at home. :)  It's just public tree poisoning that kills your mood.

  • I <i>think</i> you are good to poison as soon as it's past the seedling stage Tibbi, i hope so anyway, doing the same, tortuously slowly with my single eggplant, when i remember or can be bothered.

  • You can poison as soon as it's a tiny tree, and that will work just fine.

  • Mood doesn't go down at home, but if your mood is too low you won't be able to use poison out or home.

  • I poisoned some tiny trees and got one of the badges, so yes, it works. It has to be a dead tree, clearing living wood trees doesn't count.

  • poisoning wood trees doesn't count either, since there is no dead wood tree to whack after it dies. it leaves a tidy pile of planks all by itself, so there's no dead trunk to chop.
