i dont get how 2 read the chart i even printed it out and added lines 2 separate the seeds lol i aint got a clue how do u get that a maranta and a ball cactus makes a maple??? lol can u explain it in very simple terms coz unless some1 is actually showin me i cant figure it out and as no1 cn show me i need simple explanations lol im makin myself sound sooo stupid here lol but i really dont understand how it works

There are 2 different charts, one which has the plant species charted, and one that has the different flower combinations possible. If you know what kind of plant you want to create, check inside the plant chart until you find it. Follow the row across, and the column up to the headers until you locate the two plants you need to start with. (Sometimes, you have to search for other possibilities until you find a combination with plants that you already have )

Using the example of the maple ... (We already know what 2 plants we need, so we're ahead here) Look along the top row of the plants chart until you find the location of the maranta, or the ball cactus. Then look down the side until you find the other plant of the two. Now follow inside the chart until you locate where the two meet. You should see Maple listed at the junction.

When you want to create something new you just reverse that process, and locate the plant you want to create in the main body of the chart, then follow the row out, and the column up until you find the 2 needed plants (one along the left side, and one along the top).

For the type of flower (in this case, Citrus), if you breed two different plants both with the same type of flower, you'll get that same type of flower in your new seed (so, in this case, you don't need to even look at the other chart). Then, after you've pollenated your plants, planted and sprouted your new seed, and waited for it to mature, you should have the plant you wanted.

I hope that that actually helped, and not just confused you even more.

Hi Dilana,

Thanks for the tips, i have only just begun to write down what seed i bred with what and the results of it, i didnt think it was that important when i first began to play but boy was i wrong -lol.

I try to keep at least 1 or 2 seeds from every plant too that i have grown so far which is quite lucky for me as i have made several boo boos selling the wrong plant trashing the wrong seed when they all look the same etc..

I didnt think about the different types of pots for different species i might just try that next time

I still am not getting the guide i was given - does it have to a perticular type of flower and folage to get what your looking for.... for example:

When i crossed a rosaceae fanleaf with a fragrent fern i thought for sure i'd get a rosaceae fern i didnt i got a jalapa maranta instead.

The same with this one when i crossed a aureus gladius with a aurtherium scandens i thought for sure i would get a aureus scandans - i didnt i got a mela orchid instead.

yeah that really helped ty dilana i now have borgs charts as well so findin it even easier 2 find wat goes wit wat 2 make wat still dont get wat i want every time lol but gettin there im not really writin down wat im breedin but a few ive taken notes so i know lol just incase

If you explain why you thought you would get the results you said, it may help us explain to you where you made a mistake.

But let me try to explain the charts:

Go to the "flowers" tab. Find the name of the flower in the first column and then highlight that row. Then find the name of the second flower in the first/top row. Go down that colum until you hit the highlighted row. That will be the name of the flower you will get from the cross. i.e. In Borg's chart, rosaceae is in row 9, and fragrant is in column M, so the result you will get, jalapa is in cell M9.

Do the same thing for the foliage. Does that help?
