Made another major update to the first post!
New ideas or changed ideas are now in red!
Let me know if I missed anything or misinterpreted an idea <3

I added this to my last post, but I'm adding it here too for good measure xD
Instead of a plant having a timer, plants decaying or dying could be based on 'needs' like being dry, or having mushrooms all over it.. If the plant has 'enough' needs it dies..

I'm not for it,if plants die,or infected or attacked.
I just wouldn't bother with it,
If it was a thing.

Sorry but,
That would become annoying.

So,if it's a thing..
I would not longer support this.

Love the new additions! I wish creatu diseases would come back as well. There were some funny ones, like bushy eyebrows, and you had to buy tweezers to "cure" it lol. I can see coming up with cute and funny plant "diseases" too!

I love this idea! I also feel like it would be so great if we could use our creatu in the gardening process. Like couldn't you use your creatu to protect the garden from vermin or use intes creatu  to eat weeds (because I've actually read the intes deion and it says farmers can train them to eat only weeds)! 

Then you'd want to get creatu that could help you with gardening... maybe up certain stats that help with gardening?

What if in addition to gardens we could also raise chickens or something to feed our carnivorous creatu and we could use more guardian prone creatu like zenerixes and select them to "guard" the chickens or something? 

Because I would love to be able to interact with creatu in some meaningful way on the site, and this would be a totally fun way to do it.

The reason I think plant 'needs' would be useful is because it provides the user with something to do while growing and potentially providing interesting items like mushrooms and lil critters...
It feels a lot more gratifying when it you've earned the harvest, or worked towards the prize.
I do not by any means intend for the 'needs' to be constant either (though people who invest in bigger gardens would have to deal with more needs)
With the idea I propose, depending on how frequent they could potentially get 'needs' you could take care of a plant every day if you're unlucky, or never take care of it as it grows if you're super lucky
Also, with the potential of resurrectionitems, you could always bring them back
Thank you so much for your input Miss! I appreciate your opinion and I can see why it could become tedious! I believe if the mechanics were actually put in on res it wouldn't be as big of a hassle as it seems on paper because it would be more balanced xD

Sorry I was slow to get over here! I love this concept (who wouldn't!) and I think regardless of any other changes to feeding/the food system this should absolutely happen. And great work on this thread Void! Very well laid out.

Someone mentioned getting seeds as a care package when you hatch pets, but I can't seem to find who or where it was said, I'm sorry!  :( I think this would be a nice little bonus to encourage daily hatching and also help newbies get involved in growing their own food. 

I was also thinking perhaps small or new gardens could be less likely to be plagued by misfortune (pests, drying up, etc)? That way the difficulty ramps up only after you have 'leveled up' your garden and new users don't face as much struggle.

I also see the potential for 
- garden leaderboards
- garden trophies
- hidden FAs 

Maybe even unlockable HA items that you are granted after x number of times interacting with your garden, etc. Like a swarm of bees or grass stained knees.. Or different HA backdrops!

I love the idea of having special seasonal events - like being able to harvest pumpkins during Halloween! Which could become a turn-in event. And recipes for carved pumpkins! 

Edit:

This may be too far-fetched but a weekly or monthly random generated 'weather report' for each planet could be displayed on the planet's main explore page and have an impact on everyone's garden on that planet.. Like, 'Atquati is experiencing lots of rain this season - plants seem to be growing faster' or 'Relcore is experiencing a heat wave - better water those plants extra!'. This mechanic could be used during seasonal events too.

Oriette, those ideas sound amazing. :) I think leaderboards would be awesome and I think people will really want to do things in their garden to win those things or find those neat items. 

And seasonal things like being able to grow pumpkins during the Halloween seasonal event is fantastic.

I don't think the weather report is too far fetched and it would make me want to check the site more frequently because I have a chance to better my garden.

Deion can't be typed out because Res' coding blocks the word s-c-r-i-p-t here.

But I think gardening would be fun! Let me get my virtual hands dirty >:3

Took a bit to read through but overall, support!

I would really love this kind of feature, especially potted plants to keep!

Here are some thoughts on some things, though:

I personally think premium farming tools and seeds don't need to be a thing and would like to see one or the other is implemented. 2 premium types of items for a new, smaller (?) focus feature seems a bit much. idk just personal preference.

I also really think there should be the option of faster growing or a larger harvest if this feature is implemented. Letting users rack up large amounts of plants and the like in a short amount of time could wreck the potential economy around this part of the game pretty quickly.

Definitely support for this. More engagement would be fun, and historically, I've loved games that game me a fun activity to do each day.

I love the gardening idea and definitely support this. I would like to caution against a focus on premium items, though. If part of the goal is to attract and retain users, those who do not pay money to purchase CP or items from the cash shop should be able to use this feature to its fullest extent. Items that give a "bonus" could be offered in the cash shop, but users should definitely be able to participate fully in this feature without needing CP and without feeling like they're at a disadvantage.

Sorry if this seems late! I've been dealing w/ some family, school, and music related stress/anxiety this past week

I changed/added stuff on the first post (its in red) so check it out <3
 (Also sorry if the first post is kind of long,, Run on sentences and overdone explanations are my specialties lol I'll try to shorten it up later this week!)

I agree with basically everything above but I wanna add some ideas and explain some stuff
Many gardening features in games often start with an introduction type thing to get a user familiarized with the structure where the plants do not die/are grown very quickly so I added something like that to the first post

@Oriette Crow was also thinking there could be something along the lines of that so you aren't alone!

@kalati/Mangadreamer With the CS items/seeds, at the beginning I was thinking along the lines of items, but now all I can really see is there being special cs creatu species plants sold for credits/cp and the potential for Black market farming items.. I fully agree that people shouldn't be able to pay their way to a good and plentiful garden

Once again let me know if I misunderstood something or need to clarify <3 Thanks again for all the support and ideas!

I would be in favor of something like this as it would add back to the site to replace things that have been taken out of the game.

I would add to this idea, something along this.

You have a basic set of seeds for each planet. There could be recipes to cook at the cooking basin. You could trade seeds between people on different planets, to cook and make hybrid seeds.

This seed + This seed = a new hybrid type seed
