I'm a newbie here too, (though not to the game, I've been playing it for months, but just started playing all day every day,this past week, since I found a couple of forums about the game) and I downloaded the VST several days ago. I downloaded the one without the spoilers first, then found the one with the spoilers the next day. I don't use the spoilers, but I do enjoy having them.
I just wish that we could print out the chart, when we first start a game, that way, we can keep up with our crosses on paper, without having to shut down PT and open up VST to check the chart.
I love VST (as you can save all of the seeds you want), because I started the game under a new ID yesterday, and I saved 15 of each of my beginning seeds, and sold my plants and the extra seeds, until I could get the blue soil and water, then crossed, my favorite magic plant which I'm now selling at a very good price. I've already upgraded my nursery all the way, and am saving up so I can start cross pollinating the fancy plants. I want to have about 200k before I start, so I can be sure to buy the mutation liquid when ever I need it, plus anything else.
Again, thank you Borg for the VST, we sure needed it.
