Now that would make sense, the lower the DR on the resources, the faster it absorbs them, the faster you get a change, my 2nd plant grew into the 2nd stage in 2days, using a water and nutrients with a combined total of about 350 DR, the water and nutrient level on the plant dropped about 3-4 times a day and the health went up 4-5 levels a day, so maybe the key is to use resources with HIGH overall quality, potential energy and flavor, but a LOW decay resistance, that way you get more growth checks.


I will try this on my slow growing plant and see if it helps...

After successful complete of the Phase 1 Medical - Jedi Quest I was given a small Aurilian Plant to try and grow.


Day 1 - Placed the plant in the Bastogne Hospital - Added high quality H2O to soil until 'moist'; added high quality nutrients until 'above normal'


Observations - Thru out the day, plant slow growth


Day 2 - Kept soil moist with same water and added another unit of nutrient to hopefully stimulate growth.


Observations - Health is improving!!! Growth is slow.


Day 3 - I don't think the plant liked something it's health is 'perfect' but it's growth is below normal. Added alittle water to keep soil loose (figure it's better for root growth).


Observations - Plant remains in perfect condition but growth seems to be dropping.


Day 4 - Maintain all levels at normal


Observations - no change


Day 5 - Maintain all level at normal making sure I keep enough water on it.


Observations - growth dropping again Maybe water isn't a good thing now???


Day 6 - I HIT STAGE #2!!!!! Plant growth!!! It's a bigger leaf with many more starting to form. That plant is now 2 times the original height. Gave it a \spit of water. The health is maintaining 'perfect' condition and the growth rate improved but is still 'below normal'.


Observations - growth rate improved to 'slow'.


Day 7 - Keeping water and nutrient levels normal. Using same water and dom. oats as used in the begining.


Observations - no changes.


Day 8 - The levels dropped on both water and nutrients. I let it stay there for awhile. Added water and nutrients til I got them back to normal.


Observations - Health is still 'perfect condition' and growth rate is still 'slow'.


Day 9 - HIT STAGE #3!!!!! Large Plant growth!!! It's grown quite a bit. The leaf is so big that it makes the plant look the seymour from the Little Shop of Horrors. I added a bit of water and nutrients this time. Water level is set to moist. Nutrient level set to normal.


Observations - Health decreased to 'Full of Life' and growth rate declined to 'wilting'. Going to keep the levels back to where I was keeping them now. I've used the same resources since day one. I'll post more news as I have anything to report.

Well, our plant made it to large about 3 days ago, and haven't kept a log of what we've been doing - just feeding it any hide or meat or veggies any of our alts have on them at the moment. Has a big orange bananna/protea-like plume on it now.


Any word yet on just WHAT the fruit does?

Well I just went to check on my plant and it has advanced to the medium size level. Here are 2 pics of it:

Since day 1 I have kept a strict routine of below normal water and nutrients. It was at "Perfect Condition" and a growth rate of slow the entire time. Today though since it has grown it appears that the requirements have changed because it is now wilting. I have increased both the water and nutrient levels and plan to check it often but I must admit, I am worried. Cross your fingers for me, and if anyone has any advise, feel free...

My plant just evolved from Medium to Large after only 3 1/2 days, including the 1/2 day server downtime today on Bloodfin. I experimented a lot but the best growth I got while at Medium was Below Normal. Half of the time it was at Slow because I'd set the nutrient/water levels a notch higher in the morning.


The Growth is wilting now, I reset the levels to Normal/Normal. Hopefully I'll be able to stabalize it quickly.



Here's my Plant:

I wonder what happens when the plant fruits?


If it dies, that'd be bad.


I highly doubt it will be able to produce unlimited quantities of this 'miraculous fruit' though.


Perhaps it just drops to Level 1 again for the whole process to repeat...or maybe you only ever get 1 fruit, and the plant simply maintains its large level.

i would be willing to bet that the fruit will be on a timer. Like you can harvest fruit from it every X days.

Im sure you can harvest one or two fruit then it vanishes.
