To think I've been playing this game for two years now.

I took a couple week break recently to try and unlock bedhead, but apparently it wasn't long enough or something. That sucks, but I'm not going to resort to time travel. I really want that messy hair though.

Wow I didn't even know this was its own cut, I thought it was the mediumish messy cut that's always selectable, and the "bedhead" effect was just a vestigal easter egg. My partner sees it fairly often since she fell off. Just googled it and apparently you need to be logged out for a month to see that. I don't know if I can make myself pull that off, even though I'm basically just logging in to check Redd now.

I have a hybrid-flower question. I've just gotten my first hybrid-red windflower (from pink + blue windflower). I need hybrid reds in order to get purple windflowers. Can I *clone* the hybrid reds for this purpose, or does every one I use for this specifically need to come directly from pink+blue hybridisation?

You can clone them.

Thank goodness for that! It took so long just to get this first one, lol. You just made my day :dance:

Just make sure you have them separated. It’s been too long to remember how all of them work, but I know that at least some hybrid reds (roses maybe?) can produce regular reds if they breed instead of cloning.

Man, why is flower breeding the only part of the game where you're not completely forbidden from using your brain? I would've loved to make little habitats via decoration to attract specific insects or fish.

The chain for Purple Windflowers goes:

Seed White x Seed White = Blue

Blue x Seed Red = Hybrid Red*

Hybrid Red x Hybrid Red = Purple (only a 6% chance tho)


*I see from poking around a bit that Pink X Blue gets hybrid reds also.

But yes - clone them. To make sure they clone and not breed, there cannot be another Windflower in ANY of the 8 squares surrounding the flower. Or put simply: make sure there's at least one space between each. If you have another species you are trying to clone, you can stack them up to save space. Pretend you're also cloning Hyacinths, represented below by H. Just do a double row like this:

code:
W W
H H
W W
H H
W W
And you can water two pairs at a time with a regular can or three with a golden. I LOVE flower breeding in this game but there are some chains that are SO long. Only thing I am missing now is Blue Roses. Purple Pansies finally popped yesterday.

Many thanks for the additional info. I definitely could have fallen into a trap there, as my 'cloning beds' generally get filled out in a criss-cross manner, such as:

code:
X-X-X
-X-X-
X-X-X
...until they are just filled up with what I'm after (and I remove anything that appears that isn't what I want).

Edit: So far a my 'hybridation beds, I think I've also got enough black lilies at this point, so I'll replace my remaing red-red lilie pairs with some additional pink-blue windflower pairs.

Ah yeah the diamond/crisscross patterns are for breeding. I noticed you using dashes, so I should clarify. The double row should be:

code:
W-W
H-H
W-W
H-H
My bad for not making it clear the first time.

Started a new island today on my second switch. I was going to set things up so I could gift things to myself from my first island, but figured that would just make me burn out faster.

My starter buddies are Cherry and Rod. Pretty solid start.

I’ve found the best ways to order more than 5 things you want is to order the 5, then order 5 more of the same thing on the HHP island, or get other generous goons to gift you the items you’re looking for instantly.

Fiorina is open tonight!

Redd is here with a real Solemn Painting and 3 fake things. He also has unlimited hanger racks and key trays.
Celeste is wandering around if you’re looking to get some star-themed DIYs.
Tank is in boxes if you’ve got a slot ready for a jock rhino in your life.
Turnip prices are 128 if you’re looking for a quick ‘nip dump.

I’ll mostly be AFK but ping me if something goes fucky.

My own hybrid flower adventure continues. I've now gone from just a single hybrid red windflower to fifteen! Another day or two, and I'll have enough to set up my beds to get purple windflowers.

If you have time and space, there are ways to farm balloons fairly efficiently, but you still have to get lucky with them being recipes rather than clay or shirts or whatever. Cherry blossoms are definitely the worst offenders.

Fishing tournament today!

If I wanted to open up my island and give a code to the Dodo thread, what do I have to look out for? I know people can pick my flowers, shake the trees, and grab my crops. But my wife thinks that you can grab anything else, like stuff put down on tables, not just things that are dropped.

You can only grab things that are 'dropped' but not things that are 'placed'. It's a weird grey area but if you have furniture on display as an item but not as a leaf on the ground, then it can't be removed by anyone else.

If you happen to have a real Robust statue, a Great statue, or a real Gallant statue (Thanks!), that'd be awesome! If not, no biggie, enjoy the sale.
