Tree plots, paved or unpaved?

This was from world 3. Also, in world 4 it's still not impossible. Soil does not softcap crop quality. Exceeding your soil quality simply acts to slow growth down.

Seriously? That is so cool, how much slower does it grow? Im on q50 soil and thought i had just about maxed out when i hit 55q, So I can look forward to maybe q100 one day? Yay!

Crops under soil quality have a random variable of -5/+5, crops over soil quality have a random variable of -5/+2. On average, your crops should be rising by 1 quality after each harvest. q100 is very possible and very obtainable after just a couple of months.

Always thought you were limited by soil you could find, this is such good news. Thanks for the info, have watched you on the forums and you know your stuff and suffer fools, if not gladly, then with grace *grins*

Cheers

Except that trees aren't crops.

It was to the question of the tea leave quality.

So does any skill (most likely farming or survival) and/or the soil of the tile you plant the tree in softcap the quality? I'm trying to up the quality of my wood, but my trees aren't going up for shit. I understand they're is a random factor, so if I am just experianceing a long string of bad luck then hopefully it'll soon pass, but if I need to raise my farming, or more likely just have our farmer start planting trees, it would be great to know.

I think the reason why one of the 2 trees grow slower in the screenshots on page1 is not paved land, but because some grass land tiles are near the top one.

I growed hundreds of trees (fir for most of them) and experienced same slower growth rate for firs close (3 or 4 tiles away) from grass-land tiles. Even 1 grass tile slows the growht rate. Experienced that many times so i'm almost sure it's the reason and not paved tiles.

Hope this will help.
