According to my own test grass will yield 50%more if you wait an extra day(3 instead of 2). The map will show the same ready to harvest state but the foliage will change optically from dark green to a slightly lighter green and the grass grows. So it is just like in FS19 where grass can be harvested a bit early only that in FS22 there is no difference shown on the map.
If you look on the explanation portion of the Seasonal Growth tab under seasons it says "Turns on a growth calendar that adheres to the seasons and the WITHERING of plants." You should not have had any withering once you turned off your Seasonal growth. Hope it makes more sense.
Thank you so much for truly analyzing the game and bringing us the data to make us more efficient/educated virtual farmers! I wish I could prioritize my time to do this!
From my own experiences I have 2 saves going one with seasons growth and one without, the one with seasons growth uses the withering function on crops playing without seasons growth will just leave your crops on a ready to harvest state. If I remember correctly you have 2 or 3 days of time before the crops need to be harvested with seasons growth on before it withers.
2 or 3 days of time before the crops wither or 2 or 3 months? Why he kept saying days and not months in this video is beyond me, causes too much confusion.
I’ve heard people say that their crops were still withering with seasons turned off. I just bought this game and I can definitely say I’m insanely disappointed with it, the growth time is far too long for a casual player as myself so I sure hope that they add some settings for casual players who just like to have fun and make some money. This game feels like a dammed sleep simulator it’s so awful imo.
I'm inclined to agree - either the crop passed its harvest window or the new game started with the crop already withered - when you start a game seasons is on, and is effective until the end of the first day. If you change to 3 day months, then August still runs 1 day, September will start as 3 days.
Out of curiosity, is it possible the withering on those crops was triggered by seasonal growth before you turned it off? There are so many new details to figure out right now that it feels like constant test right now. I’m loving the new changes but I have seen how much of a challenge this is for new players to figure out.
@@brentbennett5401 correct, but the test crops didn’t wither. He had other crops on the map showing as withered though even though his test crops didn’t.
I think turning the seasons off switches withering off. I have 2 canola fields on The French Plain map that went from the final Growing status to Withered with no harvest day in between even though I am still in Canola harvest season.
I guess I am the only one that still plants Oilseed Radish. I use it because I watched your video on it along time ago. Saves tons of money for a little added time. FYI Shows as last growth stage after you plant and ready to harvest after 1 day. Thanks again for the great videos 🚜
Thanks for the work. I was really wondering about the grass, because I don't remember ever seeing a ready to harvest state on grass before. Nice to see that now.
I'm interested to know with potatoes and other root crops that require topping before harvesting.. does topping the crop affect the withering time or not
OK, I have a weird, never experienced issue with my crops. They're growing, but you can't see them. NO visual growth coming out of the ground, but the info on the field is it's almost ready for harvest (ie dark green). Going to be quite difficult to harvest when I can't see the plant LOL NO, restarting the game didn't help.
I ran into withering in fs19. I found if I left it for x amount of time before changing the setting it will wither and I wouldn't have noticed till after I changed the no wither setting
I didn't understand ...sorry i am italian but my English comprehension is not so good. maybe you explained it. You tested crops with 28 days in a month at 1x speed or 1day = 1 month ??
So I just got a contract for harvesting potatos on Hautt on field 30. I went to check it in the map to see where it's at if I wanted to do it, and I noticed it's withered??? so that's interesting.
I would put a reminder that this DOES NOT include the month of planting. So while grass, as an example, takes 2 months to become ready to hatvest, that is three months if you include the month you plant in.
@@stimpyueediot hey another quick question since you seem to know stuff...is there a way to store slurry? If so, how? I've got a liquid manure tank/pit...I think that's right but I am not positive.
@@tristanheisler1004 yes slurry is "liquid Manure" and there are the slurry tanks like the Polycis 1550 that you can use to fill up. I do not store it though. I have a slurry spreader that i keep parked next to the cow pin and i transfer it into the trailer everyday and when it is full i drive it out to the fields and use it to fertilize the fields. free fertilizer. you can also buy a biogas plant to make other stuff with it.
@@tristanheisler1004 if you take it to elm creek you just sale the product. if you buy elm creek or your own, then you turn the slurry into dry fertilizer or whatever else it makes.
i'm giving it a crack on ps5, looks like you can only have withering off if you turn seasons off. I get the feeling that to include casual gamers a little better, they'll make withering a separate option at some point
@@midnightfarmer382 I realised the “days per season” was the reason for this try setting it on one day per season and then use the house to sleep 5 days! Then check the growth of your crops! 👍
Gday mate, just started game at Elm Creek, I have done all the prep for seeding, planted 3 different crops, 3 days have passed now and nothing has appeared in my fields, would u know the cause of this?
I'm stuck on wood chipping... lol. I spent 2 hours cutting down trees. Took 2 trees to fill the chipper the forestry package recommended, but I can't figure out how to unload my chips into a trailer afterwards. Lol.... not without driving clear out to the sawmill every 2 trees. 😂
Seasons it wont matter because you have to plant/harvest in specific months so to know how long it will take simply look at the seasonal growth calendar
I sold 24 bales each 5500 L, price was 395 for 1000 L so i should get like 52000 $. Each time i get different amount, 44k once, last i got 10 k so i wonder what is wrong here. Thank you
Ok for me withering occurs every night. I had two fields that just reached harvest state late in day one. The very next day they were withered. That was with season turned on. Means playing a 1 day season is risky. Withering without an ability to turn it off renders the game unplayable. There is no such thing as withering on real life after it reaches harvest state. You can leave it all winter and harvest in the spring.
I wouldn't call it unplayable... i have been playing with seasons turned on and one day months from the beginning. You just have to harvest during that one day. You can slow your days down to 0.5 so you have more time.
Why... just why did they take out the option for crop growth speed that was in every game until now??? Just so frustrating how these companies always think it is a good idea to take away a key option out of games. Flood the forum about this so they see it put it back in the game!
If you play this on xbox, the game is so bugged down and useless wait to purchase. It's a disaster. Nothing grows properly, jobs the calculation of jobs being done is useless when you drop grain off its gone and you're only at 87% with no crop left. Disaster.
Barley 6 months
Canola 8 months
Corn 6 months
Cotton 8 months
Grass 2 months
Grapes 5 months
Oat 4 months
Oilseed Radish 1 month
Olives 4 months
Potatoes 5 months
Sorghum 4 months

Sugar Beet 5 months
Sugarcane 7 months
Sunflowers 7 months
Wheat 7 months
This is for my notes, not to say "don't watch"
I appreciate the notes so I don’t have to rewatch multiple times.
why does your notes say sugar beets is 5 months when the test shows sugar beets to be 7 months?
Wait it takes in game months for it to crops to grow or is it just days?
In game months, the test was conducted with 3 day seasons so each day is a month in game
According to my own test grass will yield 50%more if you wait an extra day(3 instead of 2). The map will show the same ready to harvest state but the foliage will change optically from dark green to a slightly lighter green and the grass grows.

An extra day or extra month?

It all looks fun.. I'm waiting for my desktop to get repaired so I can play..
I hope they give you the option to remove withering. It’s not a big deal, but I’m a casual gamer so I don’t want to stress or anything😂
U can’t turn it off
@@jarod551 … which is why he’s saying he hopes they add the option.
You can literally slow time down. How on earth can you not harvest it before it withers..

Good video. but what about when seasons is ON ? When do the crops wither ?
Been waiting for this, thank you😀
Thanks for the work. I was really wondering about the grass, because I don't remember ever seeing a ready to harvest state on grass before. Nice to see that now.
Can you wait an extra month to harvest corn?
Thank you for this awesome video it helps a lot
Please do this test for Seasons, specifically grass.
It's the same is 22 there's no difference with seasons DJgoham already did it
So it takes time for crops to grow and depending on the month if I'm correct
Yes :)
Awesome video as always, takes a lol longer to grow stuff but I guess that adds a lol more realism to the game which o think is great
In the study you done about what’s best to feed cows, isn’t hay the best and easiest thing to feed them. I’m wanting to get some dairy cows.
So I've been doing some loose numbers on contracts, seems like you don't make very much money like it was on FS19?
I'm interested to know with potatoes and other root crops that require topping before harvesting.. does topping the crop affect the withering time or not

Nice video.
Now You have the perfect prepared test to see the yield of all crops :-)
can you make a video about how to change where mods save to like you did on fs19
Hi Framer cop I assume that you did the days in Realtime? Thanks for a great video. Keep up the great video's you do.
Het maakt niet uit hoe snel de tijd gaat.
@Farmer cop remember you set your months to 1 day. So one day is equal to one month of growth.
thank you very help full
Awesome and very clear video - loving the content. Thank you.
So did you try to fast forward further to see when they do wither? Or do they not wither without seasons on ?
They only wither with seasons turned on
Awesome as always. Thanks
I ran into withering in fs19. I found if I left it for x amount of time before changing the setting it will wither and I wouldn't have noticed till after I changed the no wither setting
Is growth daily or is it monthly? If I was to change my days to say 3, would my crops only grow every 3 days?
Technically its monthly, so if you run 2 day months double the amount of days it will take
wondering about the same, but with tree's, because there are so many trees you can plant now.
you can turn withering off on Xbox but i believe all platforms can
What difference would it be if you had more days per month would I still go by days or months at that point
they grow in months, had my months at 10 days each and was sitting in game for 2 hours waiting for my sugar beets to grow (I’m still waiting)
@@goofu ooff well then…
@@goofu you can just sleep you know when night comes
Great video just a quick question about the trees do the different woods sell at different prices ?
I am not sure, I have not tested it yet
@@FarmerCop ok cheers
I dont think so, however the amount of wood you get from each tree would probably differ
does season change is in cause of the withering state?
I didn't understand ...sorry i am italian but my English comprehension is not so good. maybe you explained it. You tested crops with 28 days in a month at 1x speed or 1day = 1 month ??
That is okay, I used 1 day = 1 month settings :)

Thank you for the science
Are you sure it don't fall under crop destruction?
Yes thats a different feature
Cant wait till theres a mod to put the fs2019 calendar and growth mechanics back in. Id have returned it if i knew it was gonna be like this.
My question is what if you’re running one day is one month I guess you only have that one day to do it
What system are you playing on, I have withering options.
I am on PC
Quick question because I can't seem to find the answer anywhere...does grass you plant in a field grow back after you harvest it?
yes grass and sugarcane never need to be replanted. but they do need fertilized to keep 100%

Do I have 1 of my settings maybe set wrong?
so the calender says plant wheat in September and Harvest in August, does it make a difference if i harvest early
It wont be ready until it is in the harvest window with seasons on
Someone please explain why grains take the longest. I would have thought they were the fastest crop since its basically just types of grass
1 day is equal to 1 month, right? I play with 28 day months so that would be 2 months
If you play with 28 day months, 28 days in game has to go by before it has been a month
@@FarmerCop this confuses me because 7 months has to go by for wheat but if I’m playing on 28 days then that’s 196 in game days?
My Canola has only 50% fertilized, how do I get it to 100 or do I not need to
Just fertilize it again after it groes another day
yes you can turn plant withering off
I wish plant withering could be turned off. Just a little switch in the menu.
Wait.....no withering option in FS22? This can't be right...can it? Surely Giants wouldn't have taken that step backwards.
i'm giving it a crack on ps5, looks like you can only have withering off if you turn seasons off.
I get the feeling that to include casual gamers a little better, they'll make withering a separate option at some point

My canola isn’t growing after many many days of growing why is that? And what do I do with withered grass?
Grass wont wither, and if something isnt growing make sure growing isnt set to off in the settings
Its keeps says growing and i see no different please help i cant do nothing with season on or off

I am such a genius that i set months to be 28 days and left seasons on and just couldn’t figure out why my crops didnt grow….
It happens :)
What about Xbox...... it doesn't have the option for months per day.
Yes it does, its lisyed under the season growtg in the settings to change how many days are in each month :)
Can you make them grow faster if you make the time go up to 360x faster
