Am also back to PT after having moved on to VV series and then my computer died, so had to re-download. Really enjoying PT, seems I forget everything so it is like new!

Maybe I am off, but I use the fertilzer bomb right after seeds are planted. Before the plant matures, i.e. flowers, I first used the narrower green bottle ($65?)until I had enough money to use the organic larger green container. I have gotten pretty good results. But could be I am being too anal.

Question - If I use any fertilizer or plant food while the game is in "stop", am I getting the benefit of them, or does the game have to be at least on "slow"?
