I put in 11 hours today searching for this pretty baby, and this is my first experiment with the InstaBomb. I only used 2 and nothing else, but it'll get better, I'm sure! Just a proud mama wanting to share - hope I got the link right!

I forgot to add that I had them priced at $600 just to take a shot, and honestly, 3 "Sold" signs went up BEFORE the people got through the gate! So I QUICKLY zoomed back to my garden, raised the price to $800, and they were gone in less than 3 minutes. I didn't think they stood a chance - boy, was I surprised! A $300 lay-out for thirteen $800 plants! That's do-able!!!

Oooh - I lied - one InstaBomb (both shots) and 1 room fertilizer - so that's more like $1650 - still not a bad return! I'm liking this game (a lot more than math!)

Interesting, I'd been selling these for about $500... with fertilizer they're going for $800? Not that I need any more cash at this point but still interesting to know. as a test, I left them for $600 when I left work Friday, when I came back Monday not a single one had sold (but I'm now #2 on most visitors to my Nursery :)).

How about that, sold 12 of 15 at $706 in 5 minutes. I'll have to bump them up next time :). Nice tip on the fertilizer.

No go for $811

I was selling them for $650 but inspired by a similar post I tried upping the price and now regularly get $850. That's without fertilizer. I tried higher prices a few times, including using fertilizer, but got no takers.

I'm not sure how you're getting $850.... I just tried $800 with 2 fertilizer bombs and they wouldn't move. $775 and they're finally moving. Like I said with no fertilizer I priced them at $600 on a Friday and when I got back to work Monday, not a single one sold. I also have every garden upgrade available so if that plays a part, then that's not the issue. Maybe there's a magic plant that inspires people to pay more that I don't have? (I have 4 of 6)

Ok, that's probably the answer. I was just able to sell 1 for $800 after waiting 10 minutes (Again with 2 fertilizer bombs).
