The soil in Bellflower Meadow is more fertile, so crops naturally grow 15% faster than on your Farm. Greenhouses reduce growth time by a further 25%. Irrigation reduces it by another 25%, although its setup works a little differently in BfM. Here’s how.
First, complete all steps up to Step 11 of the BfM Walkthrough and enter the Log Cabin. Inside, you’ll find a Tin Bucket and Garden Hose. If they’re in the Old Shack, move them to Joe’s Backpack, then bring Joe close to the Old Water Well.
Connect the Old Water Well and Water Tower
- Install the Tin Bucket: Have Joe stand near the Water Well, click Use next to the Tin Bucket in Joe’s Backpack, then click the Well.
- Install the Hose: Stand near the Water Tower, click Use next to the Garden Hose, then click between the Water Tower and Water Trough.
Install Sprinklers
- Install Sprinklers on your existing Crop Fields: Use the Truck to move Sprinklers from your Farm’s Warehouse to BfM. Click the Truck → Load, select the Sprinklers, then in BfM install them on your Crop Fields.
Fill the Water Trough and Pump Water in the Water Tower
- Fill the Trough: At the Water Well, click the Tin Bucket to fill it. Then click the filled Bucket and the Water Trough. Each bucket adds 2 water, up to 8 water.
- Pump the Water: Click the Water Pump. Each pump moves 1 water to the Tower and adds 30 minutes of irrigation. A full trough gives 4 hours.
You can store up to 24 hours of irrigation in the Water Tower.
Until irrigation is enabled, water crops such as Cranberries and Watercress will take slightly longer to grow in BfM than on your Farm.
Once you pump water into the Water Tower, your Crop Fields will be irrigated and turn a darker shade of brown.
