15 New Crops to Plant and Master - FarmVille English Countryside

We've been bringing you FarmVille Sneak Peeks for the past few weeks concerning the unreleased crops that we thought would be releasing as part of the English Countryside expansion, and now we've found that 18 crops have officially launched in the game, many of which we correctly predicted.

The 15 crops are all labeled as "English Countryside" crops, and are available to view in your Home Farm's marketplace, but can't be planted. You'll have to make the trip to England yourself in order to plant and master these new crops. There are six new flowers here, some grains, vegetables, and even some tasty Black Tea that can be grown in this new market section. We have all of the details about these new crops for you behind the break.

Here's a look at the new crops in the English Countryside, in no particular order:

Black Tea: Plant for 50 coins. Harvest in 8 hours for 110 coins.
First star of mastery at 900 harvests.

Field Beans: Plant for 80 coins. Harvest in 16 hours for 210 coins.
First star at 600 harvests.

English Peas: Plant for 200 coins. Harvest in 12 hours for 290 coins.
First star at 750 harvests.

Radish: Plant for 90 coins. Harvest in 18 hours for 230 coins.
First star at 600 harvests.

Turnips: Plant for 160 coins. Harvest in 16 hours for 290 coins.
First star at 600 harvests.

Red Currant: Plant for 40 coins. Harvest in 4 hours for 75 coins.
First star at 1100 harvests.

Cornflower: Plant for 60 coins. Harvest in 16 hours for 110 coins.
First star at 600 harvests.

Foxglove: Plant for 101 coins. Harvest in 12 hours for 202 coins.
First star at 660 harvests.

English Roses: Plant for 125 coins. Harvest in 6 hours for 165 coins.
First star at 950 harvests.

Cara Potatoes: Plant for 250 coins. Harvest in 2 days for 620 coins.
First star at 450 harvests.

Barley: Plant for 80 coins. Harvest in 12 hours for 170 coins.
First star at 750 harvests.

Hops: Plant for 150 coins. Harvest in 10 hours for 220 coins.
First star at 780 harvests.

Pink Asters: Plant for 50 coins. Harvest in 1 day for 130 coins.
First star at 310 harvests.

Bluebells: Plant for 120 coins. Harvest in 12 hours for 210 coins.
First star at 850 harvests.

Spring Squill: Plant for 140 coins. Harvest in 12 hours for 220 coins.
First star at 780 harvests.

As you can see, these crops offer anywhere from 1-3 experience points per square planted, so while they may be relatively normal in that respect, it is nice to see some lower mastery requirements for the first star. Just how quickly these crops can truly be mastered, however, will be dependent on whether or not you choose to leave the English farm running, while your other farm is paused.

FarmVille Super Crops - Earn more XP and Bushels With These Super-sized Crops

Earlier this month, we brought you a sneak peek of a new Super Crops feature that we suspected would be launching in FarmVille sometime the near future. Well, our prediction holds true, as some users on the FarmVille forums are starting to receive the new Super Crop feature via a slow rollout (which means you could have received them too!). With this new feature, you'll be able to grow updated, super versions of a few crops, so long as you've already completely mastered their "normal" forms. For instance, you won't be able to plant Super Strawberries until you've already completely mastered the original Strawberry crop.

You'll also have to do a bit of work to unlock these Super Crops, even after you've fulfilled the prior mastery requirement. You'll need to earn the help of six friends, who must approve of your Super Crops before you can actually grow them. Once done, you'll be able to grow these Super Crops from the game's store just as any other crop. For our convenience, there's even a new "Super Crop" sorting option in the store's Seeds & Trees section, but it currently only functions (of course) if the Super Crops have actually rolled around to your farm. Unfortunately, it won't "force" the update as has been the case with other features in the past.

As of right now, it looks like only the following crops are available in Super forms (although we expect many more to be released in the future): Cotton, Cranberries, Grapes, Peppers, Pink Asters, Pumpkins, Strawberries, Watermelon and Yellow Melon.

As you plant these Super Crops, you'll be able to track your progress via the game's Mastery Menu [pictured above], and will earn all new dark brown and gold mastery signs for your trouble (you know, so you don't have two identical strawberry or pumpkin signs sitting right next to each other). If you're a dedicated farmer that has mastered all of the originally available crops in the game, along with those launched in the English Countryside, this will definitely give you something to work on for a while.

How to Get More Free Farmville Cash Quickly - Planting the Best CropsFor More FV Cash

Everyone that plays FarmVille wants to know How to Get More Free FarmVille Cash Quickly. FarmVille has become an online phenomenon very quickly and is being played by millions of users every day. Users like the fact that they can escape their everyday problems and routine and enjoy the peace and tranquility of the FarmVille life. You will learn that although enjoyable, FarmVille can be a challenge and far from your ordinary video game.

You will need money for almost about everything you do, Money is needed to buy supplies, seeds to sow and to purchase the land that you intend to farm. The costs involved in operating your farm in FarmVille can be easily managed because with a good harvest you will earn more than it costs to plant the crops. There are other items in FarmVille that can be purchased at the market to equip and build your farm, however some require a good amount of cash.

When you make purchases and grow the best crops in FarmVille you will receive experience points that are needed to advance to a higher level. So earning enough money is critical to level up in FarmVille The fact that money is so important in FarmVille, maximizing your earning potential on the farm is a primary goal that should be implemented. A good strategy to use is to find a high per hour payout crop and plan your farm accordingly. If you have a crop like strawberries that take about four hours to grow and sell for 35 coins/plot or Pumpkins that take 8 hours to grow and sell for 68 coins per plot you will see that strawberries will be the best choice.

The strawberries will earn you 8.75 coins in an hour and pumpkins only 8.5. These are the things that may seem minor but can earn you the extra needed coins to level up. The one point to remember is that if the crops are not attended and harvested and replanted in a timely manner, the profit will not be maximized. So plan to harvest as soon as the crops are ready and than replant. In determining what to plant try to plan the next time that you will be at the farm to work.

If it will be an extended time than a crop that takes longer to harvest can be a better choice if the payouts are higher. An important point to remember is that you need to harvest as close to the maturing time as possible as the time lapses the hour rate of return will go down the longer you wait to harvest. The only way to make money fast with crops is to plant fast growers and tend to them often so that you can get the next crop in as soon as possible.

If you plan your crop rotations wisely before you purchase the seed at the FarmVille market. your profits will be greater and you will earn the coins you need.

How to Plant Crops in FrontierVille on Facebook

The Facebook game "FrontierVille," which is now part of "Pioneer Trail," lets you create a virtual homestead and embark on adventures. Within your homestead, you can build a cabin, feed farm animals and even grow and then harvest crops for money. When you harvest a crop, the ground goes back to being simple grass. This can make trying to plant more crops confusing, as you cannot simply click the ground and then select the crop of your choice.

Instructions:

1) Click the "Market" icon in the lower-right corner of the game screen.

2) Click the "Crops" tab in the "Market" section that opens.

3) Click "Buy" within the description of crop that you wish to plant. Options include clover, tomatoes, pumpkin, potatoes, corn and wheat.

4) Click the piece of cleared land where you wish to plant the crop you selected. You cannot plant it in an area containing rocks, trees, tall grass or anything else. Click another piece of land to plant another section of the same crop.

5) Click the cursor icon in the lower-right corner when you are done planting. This allows you to click within your homestead area without planting more of the crop you selected.
