remember in fish tycoon how you could only get the greenfins from eggs? or by crossing with other greenfins. there were 3 like that and once you had those 3, you could cross to make anything. (I think they were greenfin, silky and shark but its been a long time since I've played)

I'm finding that this game follows a lot of the same patterns and I wonder if anyone has figured out which 3 flower types are the base ones? I keep breeding and breeding and I'm coming up with the same 10 flower types all the time so I think I must be missing one of the base flowers and need to just keep buying seeds until I get them.

I hope this isn't too confusing. Its hard to articulate exactly what I mean.

There are 4, just as there were in Fish Tycoon, and you can find them in the Guides Section. However, Plant Tycoon has an additional "twist" in that there are quite a few rare species (we refer to them as Tier 4) that can be obtained only from seeds or mutation.

Thanks for the quick reply. I looked in the guides section and I found a great list of the Perfect Plants mutations/etc and I downloaded some grids but even looking at the grids I'm still not seeing the 4 I'm looking for. Could you possibly link me to where I should be looking?

If you carefully examine sfrose's Breeding & Mutation Key Pocket Guide, it should become clear which ones can't be obtained by breeding. The tiers are explained in her seed catalog, which should help you, as well.

Where is the guide section found?

Click Forum List and scroll to the bottom of the page. There's a separate guide forum for each game.

The Plant Tycoon Guides section can be found here, funnyface.

Edit: Looks like LadyCFII beat me to it.

Thank you!

POSSIBLE Spoiler!!!!! I have all three seed trays. They are all full. I keep getting new seed types. I have nowhere to put them. How do you know which ones to keep in the seed bins?

you sorta have to guess and risk it if you're not keeping track of the crossbreeding and the seeds created. I've had three full trays for days now. I feel bad tossing the seeds out.
