Moor effecting crop quality?, moor farm?

Postby LuckyDuck69 » Tue Oct 04, 2011 9:25 am

Hi i have searched the wikki's, yes both, searched the forums and even googled which leads me to think that the answer is a no.
regardless i am wondering because it makes sense to me that it would, as the plots of land turn to moor when you plow them and just leave them does it affect farming outcomes at all when just plowing over the moor?
my impression is that leaving them plowed robs the ground of its nutrients thus becoming moor, i thought i would ask because this assumption makes sense to me and it will be a lot of work to plant grass everywhere which has turned into moor on my current/future farming areas.
i have to think people would be wondering this but i just cant seem to find anyone else asking.
if there is already a post about this then I may officially need to be debollocked O.O
Also a side question (may as well kill two birds with one stone, can i just plow a random patch and leave it to have it turn to moor? how many times am i expected to have to re-plow it? as i am aware there is no set time for it to happen, i was told moor has the highest spawn rate yet it doesn't appear to spawn any real dangers thus the idea of my "moor farm" was born. essentially just a patch of moor for the off chance that animals may spawn on it, might also put a nice wooden fence around it, it shall also be off my claim so animals actually spawn. also i will admit i bring this up mainly to know if its just a stupid idea?
... yes another question, on the odd chance that someone reading this knows can someone please tell me the way they personally catch plaice (moon position, lure, qualities of rod components, type of body of water) as i have gotten all confused trying follow the answers i can find, I just want something that has worked for someone? perhaps some that work with different moon stages? (and please list the moon stages it works during) :)

.... I like to take care of all my questions in one go rather then making multiple posts, admittedly the last question doesn't belong omg "who wants to play what doesn't belong?!" (if you dont get it dont worry lol) but yes i just thought i would ask it on the off-chance as i would no way feel it to be appropriate to post a separate question for it with all the information available until i try every possible combination from what i read.
PS. yes i prattle on alot and i want everyone to help me, everyone does. at least i am honest about it :)

No, that won't effect your crop quality at all, don't worry.

Changing into moor is entirely random and it will spread on its own to adjacent grassland tiles.
You'll still need to replow the ground to plant anything on it so I'm not sure why you want your land to become a moor but to each their own.

Sweet as, just thought i should make sure.

The idea of making some moor was in a separate part from where i plant my crops,
so that i have a spot where no threatening animals spawn at a higher then normal rate. (yes these are the things i do to kill time)

This is going to make it slightly more difficult to keep it in exactly the area I want :shock:
grass planting here I come.

Animals will not spawn on personal claims, so just make sure this area is under personal claim

First suggestion: stop thinking so much. You're over thinking a problem, and if you're overthinking this one problem, you're probably doing it to others. This game is never as complex as you're making it out to be. I can only think of a couple of games with real environmental simulations, and only one is an MMO.

Another suggestion (just as a readability thing): Use spaces between paragraphs. It'll separate your questions better. It's hard to read a wall of text. Don't preface another question "and another question". We can easily see that and it makes it look apologetic. It's a help forum. No need to apologize for asking quesitons. :)

Also to note: plowing the moor will eventually cause it to change into heath (the pink stuff). Just thought OP should be aware of that.

yes i have a habit of that, i just like to be sure and it generally helps in the process of working out more :).

Will take all of that into consideration, thanks :)

really?
Heath doesn't need to be plowed in order to plant crops.. this could prove to actually make my farming go quicker being a help rather then a hindrance?

Heath needs to be plowed to plant crops on it.
