Crops question

[Bobble2020]

If i have seasons turned off and it takes say 6 months for a crop to grow , does it still takes 6 months if i have 3 or 4 days per month or does it then just take 6 ingame days , I am just wondering as currently while starting out i am playing 1 day per month but as my farm expands i may swap to more days per month

Extending the days per month takes effect at the start of the next season, at which point, crops will take longer to grow as they have a fixed growth rate even if you disable seasons.

Turning seasons off just eliminates the planting calendar so basically you can plant any crop whenever you want, however the growth rate remains the same

and thats what is stupid as not really turning seasons off just the seasonal planting and that so isn't how Giants made it sound before the game was released as why they said it made it sound like you can turn it off and have it like it was say in fs17 or 19 if ya didn't have the seasons mod installed.

It was never called "seasons" ....it's season cycle...big difference

I think the biggest factors in days per month is game speed and home much work you do yourself and how much you pay others. I do about half the fieldwork and all the harvesting outside of root crops. I typically go with 2 days. It seems to be a decent fit for the amount of time needed for field prep and harvesting. And not too boring in the winter months. I use the 2 day/month schedule even with large field farms like those on Southern Cross Station. I do use the seasons calendar so I have a window to squeeze everything into.

When switching to multiple days, you’ll need adjustment to the rush you might’ve experienced with just 1 day. You might even get up early to hurry for field work only to see there isn’t any to be done since you’re still in the same month.
