Farmville! It's fun and addicting, but it is also a huge time-sucker. It's fun to watch your little farmer run around the farm plowing, planting and harvesting, but when you need to harvest and replant in a hurry, you can follow these tips and save some time.
Instructions:
Things You'll Need:
Enough coins in your Farmville account to buy fence or hay bales
1) There are a few different ways to trap your farmer. If you are just starting out and you don't have a lot of coins, the cheapest way is to use hay bales. You need two hay bales from the market for this method. When you click on a corner of the farm, the farmer will move there. Once he is in the corner, click on a hay bale and then click move. Set the hay bale down next to the farmer, nice and close. Move the second hay bale so that it is touching the first and the farmer is closed in. That's all there is to it. go plant and harvest and the farmer can't move. you will need to move a hay bale and click in the corner each time you sign in to trap the farmer for that session.
2) If you have more coins and hay, you can trap the farmer in the square that he reports to at the beginning of each session. When you first sign in, the farmer shows up in the same square in the middle of the farm. If you have a crop planted there, delete it with the delete tool. Then move the farmer out of the square by clicking somewhere else. Next, move hay bales all around the edge of the square, leaving one bale out of a side. Click in the middle of the hay bale square to move the farmer back in. Move the last hay bale into place, and the farmer is trapped. The farmer will remain there in future sessions unless you move one of the hay bales to let him out.
3) My favorite method is to trap the farmer in the corral with the animals. I go in there to collect from them first anyway, so the farmer is usually right there. I left out one section of fence and I use 3 bales of hay in its place. I move one bale to let the farmer in and out. See the picture at the top of the article.
