I'm pretty sure you can't muddy constructed floors.

...Of course, I could also just cast obsidian in my lake of magma and then build a farm on top of that...

I like how you deal with problems!

[Grimlocke]

Been having problems farming anything, just getting the 'no seeds available' thing. Plenty seeds though, strawberries, pricle berries, etc...

Huh. I haven't been having that problem. Indoor crops grow in muddied plots indoors, outdoor crops grow in plots outdoors. I know that strawberries and prickle berries grow there... are you trying to grow stuff indoors and didn't embark with indoor plants (plump helmets, etc.)?

[Grimlocke]

No, the indoor stuff is working fine. Its just my outdoors farms that are acting up. Tried several plants in several places, but none of them would tell anything but 'no seeds'.

Outdoor farms use different plants. You can use "gather plants" on some of the scrubs growing outside, then brew them to get seeds. Or trade, of course.

I'm having the exact same problem down in the valley... going to try shifting around to see if I can cross a biome. I've gathered a lot of outdoor seeds (accidentally boozed all of my plants, short rations for a few months heh)

Barconis, whereabouts are your plots?

I'm able to grow everything here:

[Grimlocke]

Ah that might be the problem. Though still odd, I got those plant seeds from the place I put the farms. Guess ill plop some farms here and there to see if its some biome problem.

[Tylui]

I'd like to do this, but is there somewhere with a list of the demands and when they have to be completed by?

Like in table format...

Demand	Received	Deadline
Huts of wood!	4th of Hematite, 1051	4th of Hematite, 1052

Edit: I just noticed that this started 6 days ago so probably the only one is the garden, huh? Oh well, the table-of-demands might be a nice idea anyway. lol.

Past demands are up on the website, under the current on on the player log page (yeah, only the garden for now). I'll have to assume everyone took their full two-years to set up, and start adding deadlines next time I FTP in there.

And Barconis, did you trade for the seeds or gather them? The game may be being ironic and letting us gather plants but not grow them.

Almost all of them were gathered, I think... although I did buy a lot of berries, especially the sun berries, so I have no way to tell at this point which seeds were which. If you put plots in the same spot and can't grow anything you gathered, that might be the problem.

[Ledi]

Aha! Pointy-eared berry gatherers just came by, and suddenly I can plant! Phew, I didn't want to have to cancel the first challenge due to stupid gameness. ^^

[oidip]

Wait my fort isn't 2 years old yet.
Does that mean I cannot start the garden until I have played another 1/2 of a year?

Nope, go ahead and start on the garden whenever you wish. ^^ The latest deadline for the garden should be in... 54 or so I think. I've only just hit Autumn of 53 myself, but I'm looking at possible sites now that I can plant outside seeds again.

[Grimlocke]

Just had the same thinng happen as Ledi, Elves showed up and upon robbing them bald and telling off their diplomat, I could plant all sorts of stuff.

So much good a little Elf abuse can do!

Got the magma moat ready for them next year.
