I know if I don't harvest a crop for a while it will die. Is there any such limitation on fertilizing? Will the field eventually "dry up"? Or can I fertilize every field and let it sit like that until I'm ready to plant it?
Thanks.

Re: fertilizer timing?
To my knowledge, fertilizing only adds value once the small plants appear. If you fertilize while the field is brown there will be no added effect.
Re: fertilizer timing?
Fertilizing from what I've seen never dries up. It can only be used which occurs when a crop matures. If you plow a field before that point you'll notice it's still in the visually fertilized state and won't take any additional fertilizer.
Re: fertilizer timing?
None of this answers my question.
I can fertilize first then then sow after.
I can sow first and then fertilize after.
Does it make a difference?

I wouldn't think so. I play FS15 I don't play mobile but in FS15 it dont matter when you fertilize as long as you do it before you harvest it will increase the yield.

Re: fertilizer timing?
It works the exact same on FS16. So fertilize when it's most convenient, before plowing, after, before sowing or after. Honestly i plow, sow then fertilize.

Re: fertilizer timing?
I ran a test, with these results.
Planting and harvesting beet root on the upper left field:
Yield using no fertilizer: 16,000
Yield using fertilizer after plowing but before planting: 24,000
Yield using fertilizer after planting then waiting until the plants first appear: 24,000

Maybe someone could test the yield for all the other crops too with and without fertilizer...
Re: fertilizer timing?
Yield is always 1.5x for the field in question. Don't have it with me but i do have all but the milllion dollar field yields. From memory crop yields in relation to Corn. Corn and Wheat yield exactly same amount though wheat gives straw (grass and straw i don't recall yields right now). Canola yields 85% of corn, beats yield 2x and potatoes are 2.5x.
From what i recall, the fields right next to starting field are 1.5x the starting field.

Thanks Navan. It is good to know, really.Navan wrote:Yield is always 1.5x for the field in question. Don't have it with me but i do have all but the milllion dollar field yields.
