Any suggestions on how to store seeds. My 3 boxes are full and I am no where near finishing the game. I am worried I will delete some seeds and then I need them??!!!

I try keeping 1 of each seed but deleting duplicates. You do get paid for seeds you trash, but only $1-5 each. The exception to this is my most valuable plant. I always keep 15 of them on hand for a quick "money batch" whenever my cash gets low. Since plants produce so many seeds, you always have more than you need. Don't feel bad about selling some of them. \:\)

Thanks!! I have to start getting a bit more organised and get rid of some seeds. I have found 53 different plants, only 2 magic plants though. \:\)

I've found 104 species and only 3 magic plants, so you're doing good. \:\) One thing I do to organize my seeds is plant them and then self-pollinate the resulting plant to produce seeds that clearly show what plant they are. I keep 1 from each plant and sell the rest to the trash can. Then I sell the plant in the nursery. It's money both ways. \:\)

I beat you all - 118 species and 1 magic plant:( I am getting sooo close to using some of the "recipies" for magic plants. Just I don't want to finish the game too soon and once I start down that trail, I know I won't be able to resist using them to finish it all.

I am with you Barhi. I'm not sure how many species I've grown (I'm at work right now) but I still only have that level one Magic plant!

However, I am very organised and I have faith that my methodical approach will bear fruit (or flower!) in the long run.

I've been playing the game in multiple slots, and keeping a list of my breeding attempts and results separately, but combining the data in one worksheet for "species found." There are duplicates between the games, but it reduces the number of plants that I need to "test" to see if it is Magic or not.

I've been doing the same thing that Quaggy is doing for seed storage. Keep 15 of the most valuable species and only one each of the others.

And I'm sadly losing the race....60 species found and no magic plants. I've been focusing too much on building up my cash and spending it on enhancements. Not the fastest way to play the game, especially since my most valuable plant is only $102.

Once you get fully into the breeding program, more new species will emerge and the Magic Plants will surprise you. But the hard part is deciding which seeds to discard.

With a possible 500 combinations of plants, there's no way you'll be able to keep one of each seed in your seed trays. At some point you're going to have to discard some that you only have one of.

I am trying to keep one seed of all the "basic" plants, and keep a record of what I cross and what it gives me. That way, I can discard some of the crosses, and if I find I need them later on, at least I've got the "raw materials" there to recreate them.

And I also keep 15 of my highest-sellers for a quick money topup when I need it.
