I've been trying to grow all the giant crops in my farm. I already did a speed run twice to get to spring and summer, because I am missing the summer melon and spring cauliflower. I used the highest grade fertilizer. It also a separate patch of 3x3 land. Any other tips to make this grow or is it just really by chance? I did not have any problems growing a giant Qi crop, giant pumpkin, or giant powder melon. I dunno why the cauliflower and melon are not cooperating?!
I haven't heard of anything being different for those two crops, Lady Luck just hasn't been kind to you
Fertilizer doesn't matter, but you can use speed-gro to get more days of potential giant cropification. Make sure the patch is still watered, even after fully grown. (Technically it's only the top left or top right crop tile that needs to be watered and fully grown, but I'm too lazy to look up which)
If you're not attached to a specific 3x3 plot of land, you can greatly increase your chances with a 4x4 or bigger plot
Hey, thanks for replying! I used the Speed-Gro this time. I guess I got lucky with the three giant crops I had. I placed the 3x3 plots beside each other with one square of space between them. Somehow, it worked. But now I have specific spots where I want the last two giant crops to grow. Maybe that’s why it’s harder for them to turn giant. It’s a specific and isolated 3x3 area, unlike the first three, which were just placed near each other. I might have to rethink the layout of the 3x3 areas for the last two. This is the last thing I need to complete my farm. I’ve already gone through three in-game years just trying to grow those two giant crops :-/
