That would be a useful tool.

I am going to change my rate from Normal to Slow. Was just about done planting about 20 hectares and my end rows already popped through. Way to fast for me.

http://www.farming-simulator.com/mod.ph ... tle=fs2017 is the answer.
I've been using it for several days and it makes planning your crops so much easier. You can set different growth stage times for each crop and see how long to the next stage. The display turns orange when there's 2hrs left and red at 1hr. One of the best mods yet.

What would be the trouble in just turning plant growth off during the night?
If it ain't red
leave it in the shed

i play on hard difficulty and fast growth, but been thinking about changing to slow growth but i believe i would have to lighten up the difficulty to normal or possibly easy to do this otherwise i think it would be impossible to make any money. slow growth would better simulate seasons. i think animals would be a huge part as they would gain money everyday vs crops every 5 days. it sure would be nice for timing the fertilizing stages. anyone else do this?

I play usually on easy/normal difficulty (find it too much of a grind on hard due to prices and not having much playing time). I have my speed set to 5x with normal growth rate and withering off. I only ever fast forward time after the days work is done until 5am the next day. I find thus the best mix for me, i dont do animals straight away so if i find myself with not much to do i smash out silage bails if possible.
How long do you get after the final growth stage until the crop withers?

This is obviously some new definition of the word safe that I was previously unaware of! :mrgreen:

here is my small tutorial about growing stages and yields/income.

There is a link to the spreadsheet (with the different yields) in the video description.

Somehow I've missed this topic. That is some great research motoventurer :hi: but what happened to the video? The link just doesn't work anymore :confusednew:

Not sure how relevant this is but I saved it a long time ago.
