Tending your plants

Fertilizers

• Fertilizers make your plants and trees grow much faster and larger. There are seven different coloured ferliziers, which are red, yellow, blue, green, brown, orange and purple; which you can purchase from Costalots General Store. There is also a special mix fertilzer which you can purchase Ivor Bargain. Generally the fertilizer you need is the same colour as the plant you want to fertilize, e.g. yellow fertilzer for the banana tree.

Use your Shovel

• If you use your shovel to dig a hole to plant your seed in; your plant will grow much faster. You can also use your shovel to tap a tree and fruit

will drop off it; doing this will make more fruit grow much sooner. But only do this if you can see the fruit on the tree and it looks ripe, else the fruit will just drop off and break.

Other Tips

• When it rains, you dont need to water your plants as they will already be wet from the rain. But make sure that you check your plants are kept watered

regularly until they are fully grown.

• Ruffians attack the buds that grow on your trees. These buds grow into new branches on your tree; so if it is

attacked by a Ruffian, then that branch will not grow.

• When planting your seeds you should take into account the size of the plant. The bigger the plant the larger amount of space that it needs to grow, e.g.

Oak trees need alot of space to grow and Daisys only need a small space.
