1.Make the shop's prices lower.Common plants go for 8 bucks,and I'm expected to get 800 to be able to experiment with crossbreeds(Level 2 soil).What doesn't help is your coustomers are braindead.They are staring right at a plant and don't know the giant plant is there.It's understandable in Fish tycoon,I myself can barley see the things,but bright plants?On the subject of coustomers,there is a coustmer possibility that looks a lot like Mario.Hope you got a good lawyer.
2.Take off the "Doses" system on level 1 items.If you're going to put a price of a hard earned 85 bucks just so a plant can('t) see the light of day with insect poison means that likley another one is infested.And another.You're going to have at least the whole bottle down in 3 hours.But now you're broke,and the most expensive plant is dead.
Why not make it so that you can get refills at lower prices?
Speaking of spray,the "Use _bug_ spray" arrow in the tutorial points to plant food.Took me the whole bottle to find out it was a seperate item.

1) The ability to move tools around, or at least move the bugnet away from the pruning sheers. It may be because I use a tablet and it has sensitivity settings but I almost always end up grabbing the sheers instead of that net when a rare _bug_ flutters across the screen...I have many bald plants from it \:\(

2) More space for plants! 15 pots isnt enough, Ive already got 7 favorites, and it sadden me that every so often I have to go sell them because I just have no room and I need more cash. In Fish Tycoon you at least had other tanks, if you wanted to keep some faves you could do so without being handicapped for the rest of the game, I wish that were true in this too. There are just so many lovelies this time around, I was sad when I realized I couldnt purchase another greenhouse or anything.

3) Similar to the above, how about a directory that lists all the plants you have bred in the game. Completing the listing would not only help us go back to see some of our favorite plants but it would give us one more goal in the game. Not just unlocking the secrets to breed all 700 plants, but actually growing them all at least once.

4)Ability to sell things when you're not in the nursery area. Maybe a hired hand, and you would have to pay him some of your profits to keep him working? It would be nice to place my plants for sale and not have to remain in the selling area for such a long time, the growing babies need attention.

5)How about a magnifying glass in the shop? LOL Im not the only one who has a hard time discerning whether a strand of grass is healthy Im sure. On some plants its really tricky to figure out whats alive or dead, and whether its *this* leaf or the one behind it.

6) One minor little petpeeve is that...in both this and Fish Tycoon you're a guy. Cmon now, let me be a girl. Have the little person be randomly generated maybe, but I would at least like a 50/50 chance of being a woman. We can manage businesses too, you know :P

My biggest personal peeve, the ability to store more seeds!

It would also be cool if you could continue to see the breeding/pollination history of the plants like you could in fish tycoon.

Totally addicted to the game anyway!

1) It would be nicer if you could double click on the seeds produced to send them to the seed box or the trash rather than having to drag them across the screen. It's very tedious when you have 5 seeds per plant from 15 plants and want to maximize your profits.

2) Instead of (or in addition to) the "sold" signs in the nursery, you should have a tally of how many plants are left to sell (like in Fish Tycoon). There have been MANY times that I scan the nursery thinking everything is sold and come to find out that one was still left. It's more difficult to sell one plant alone than it is to sell when the nursery is full.

I agree with the suggestion to have the ability to buy more space for plants so that we can grow more than 15 at a time. I also agree that we need a magnifying glass or ability to view one plant close-up at a time.

I can't agree with the OP's suggestions... if you want it easy, then play on Easy mode...

But I agree with many other people. ESPECIALLY being able to hire someone for your shop so you can sell and grow at the same time.

Thinking about it, being able to move your plants out of the greenhouse "breeding area" and into another area (while they sell) would do the same thing.

Actually i decided to have that little peep behind the counter because he looks soooooo much like Arthur and I thought it was very cute to have "Arthur" in the game \:\) I see of course your point...

First off, this is a beautifully wonderful game. I have read most of the suggestions for PT2 but I don't agree with them all. Please(fellow gamers) be patient and don't bite my head off. But most of the suggestion would make the game easier, but most will detract from the mystery and adventure in the game. I am keeping track of my plants, mutations, seeds, sales, etc in spreadsheets and notes. Its like doing research, its totally enjoyable to me. I know it is so tempting to want the big money and basic items quick, fast and in a hurry. But having to work for them makes the reward and lasting game experience much more desirable and satisfying. Most of you have numerous magic plants, I have yet to find one. In my discovery process I am having the time of my life. As for moving the tools around I like being able to just click in the general area and the tool goes back in place.

I think the best suggestion was to have an option for a second nursery the way you could the seed boxes....

Otherwise the game is fantastic! I am having a wonderful time playing!!

I think it would be interesting if you could export and import seeds. Don't you think trading seeds would be fun? You could actually share your favorite plant with people, not just show a picture.

I think the coolest would be earning enough money to visit Isola and training to raise plants say tier IV plants there. Two tasks in one for our programmers. Adding a gardener job to the villagers for VV3 raising herbs and exotics and a surprise new visitor who would have to learn to live on Isola and take home the skills for the shop to thrive.
