I took a screenshot of my cow pasture in one of those meadows on the north end of the map. I cleared some trees out to create a path, then put a gate, and dropped a few placeables to create a nice little cattle environment. This is one of a few maps you can pull something like this off.

It was one of the things I really wanted to do with this map, when I first scouted it out. On my neighbors farm, he had his cattle pasture in a little clearing in the trees like this.

Has anyone had any issues with the grass not regrowing after mowing it in the fall?

I mowed in the late fall, and am currently on day 1 of summer the following year and my grass is still in the "harvested" state.

I had the same issue. I play 6 day seasons but on PS4. It was late summer before my grass started to regrow. Hang in there, it'll grow!

10-4. Thank you, I was just wondering if I could have to plow it up and replant. Looks like I just wont be able to mow this year.

This helps! Thank you!

@chedly_farms- I like the cattle set up a lot, nice inspiration. I will be doing something similar when I can afford some ground up that way.

@NotoriousWeber- I play on 9 day seasons and not had any troubles yet. I believe earlier in the thread there was a similar report using 6 days. The Geo is standard set up with only weather settings changed using averages from weather spark, nothing fancy. I would not think Seasons days would effect grass all that much but I may be wrong. I know it effects snow ,rain and temperature patterns if set to short (not as accurate). I will look into the Griffin Indiana Geo and see if there's any changes I could make. If there is a problem it is with the GEO not the map. Keep me posted if it decides to grow, make note of current weather if you would. Thanks

Edit: It appears JusGSi may have resolved it LOL, but it should grow earlier. I will look into it

@AJfARMER- I feel like I had a similar issue on Lone Oak awhile back now that I'm thinking about it. I think it's a seasons issue, not necessarily a map or a geo issue. Something about mowing on day 5 or 6 of fall screws with grass re-growth.

I believe it’s geo related, I wanna say there was a thread here at one time about it.
Edit: So I found this, farmcatjenkins who made some geos for fs, talking about grass growth for the Midwest geo. viewtopic.php?f=963&t=158906&hilit=Gras ... h&start=15
Basically that if you cut past the grass growth in the geo it won’t regrow until much later? I don’t really know much about it just that myself and others have had similar issues with the Midwest geo

@Mwal- Thanks for the info. I used the Indiana Geo for my template and just adjusted the weather. I will take a look at the Griffin GEO and see what I need to change. I will need to do a little research to see how you should set that up.

I came late to the game regarding this map, but I've been playing it continuously for a couple weeks now, and I have to say it's really amazing. As some have mentioned, the sounds alone are so well done... I always chuckle as I drive by the auto shop and hear the radio blasting. :lol:

I, too, went through the woods looking for bigfoot... didn't see him, but I swear he was stalking me!

The one really weird thing I had happen was a car 'Moo'd' at me after it hit me. I was pulling out and got hit by a car, it pushed me off the road, and as I was turning back onto the road, a second car hit me the same way. It moo's at me. No horn, a moo. There's no cattle on the map, so it wasn't an environmental sound... it was a cow... the car had a cow.... :shock: *thumbsup*

I've been trying to figure out why there are so many unnumbered fields/zones you can buy... but Chedly's idea kinda answered my question. Considering all the trails, I think this might be the first map I actually try horses on, just so I can go bigfoot hunting on one!

Great job AJ! My farm looks even better with all the AJTech mods scattered around it! :biggrin2: (I'm assuming those are yours, too! If not... I'm so embarrassed!! :shock: )

My mistake then. I could have sworn I saw something in a post pages back that looked like they were the same person. :hmm:
Ah well.. still a great map! :mrgreen: *thumbsup*

Just to reply to this, turns out I was in day 6 of spring, I ended up in Day 1 of summer last night and the grass went from "harvested" to stage 1 of growth.

The rest of the map however that has never been mowed has the grass in a "ready to harvest" state.

Anyway, i can work with that. I have bigger issues. I used a bugged silage bunker and I have 545,000 liters of fermented maizesilage that I cannot pull the cover off of........so I gotta figure out how to get around that.
