christ it looks like a minecraft farm


I had the last straw, I finally made a living out of selling weed and just as I thought everything was fine a loving cop came in, destroyed all my crops and jailed me.

That seriously killed the game for me, the cannabis license is way too expensive for me, and all the the other things just killed the game for me, I guess this farming server isn't for me, I'll still pop in every once in a while dren, you keep up the great work on the server.

So I quit the farm part of the game, and destroyed all my things, and gave everybody 500$ and one guy 1k.

Come on man, there's 5 other crops you could have grown.

I failed with all but weed, besides I never said I wasn't going to quit the server, I'll play every once in a while, just not all day like I did for a week.

If you didn't want to get arrested for growing illegal weed you shouldn't have put all your funds into it, or just not grow it.
i think its a great addition to make weed illegal without a permit. its gives you something to work for.

That would just confuse cops.

Q: How do i begin a farm?

A: Before you can begin you have to go to the agricultural area. Begin by placing a baseplate, choosing your main crop (Weed is not a good beginning crop) which you can find in the farming tab in the bricks menu. Once you place soil (Large soil is used for blueberries and grapes) till your dirt until it maxed and place your crop. From here it becomes more like cookie clicker and you can buy upgrades which are pretty self explanatory.

I love my farm.






so much more astetic than a loving farm tower

so much more astetic than a loving farm tower
Even if my farm tower doesn't look at good at a field of gold, it still produces a forgetton of cash and doesn't take up a lot of space

I have to agree that tower farms don't have a place in the server.
Examples of good farms are those made by Theepicman and TheTurtorn that are large fields on the ground.
Luckily my farm's efficiency wasn't affected by the new height limit.

Because what farm is in a skyscraper?
If you want to make a tower, make it in Residential. 
What about hydrophonic crops?  They could be done in a large building.
