I cannot keep enough food.....how do i find the golden berries? Please, I need some tips fast.+

Which game are you playing? VV3? You posted in the VV1 forum, which has different food sources, none of which involve golden berries.

I don't think ANY of the games involve golden berries - but perhaps you were under the impression, as was I for a time, that the plant which 'might bear fruit' and has a somewhat golden hue is intended to be a food source? That is a puzzle that has nothing to do with food.

The only other thing I can think of, is that you've gotten the Golden Child confused in with one of the other puzzles.

-Or lesasho is speaking of the plant we may have with the Magic faction in VV3! It's what I tought too! I spent a lot of time with this plant!!

You're right - if this was meant for VV3, that could be the case.

In which case, since this is tagged spoiler, I'll let the cat out of the bag - the berries, for the magic faction, or the pitcher plant, for nature, don't show up until you reach level two of that faction.

You should read the tech descriptions more often. I often had to re-read every single one in deciding which tech to try for next.
