These are THEORIES, they are crude, basic and most probably mainly wrong. But they serve the purpose of getting us started.

Vegetable Yields

Carrots

Carrots have a yield that is time based. There is a carrot 'wave' that travels north/northeast/some combination of north and east. Yield of 14 has been found on the wave.

Onions

Dead easy. There are strips which run in a certain direction (really can't be bothered to find it out) or maybe just a patchwork of 1 coord squares which yield over double up to triple the harvest. There's one west of (old) Kush, which starts at -2, XXXX generally. Congrats to Shams on finding a 14 yield spot. We found a 19 onion site found at -24, -1981 in Khmun.

EDIT: They are diagonally running strips going in rush-weave style (ummm... I'm tired and been working on this all day. Basically there are patterns that run one direction and some that run in another. At the intersections something may happen, it's being worked on.)

Garlic

Avatar dependent definitely, possibly time/location dependent. Same place, same time, different avatar different yield. General rule of thumb is desert, plant where onion grows well (10+).

Leeks

Ok, leeks appear to do very well in the western desert, south of the onion area.

I was at -9, -4070 and got 3 leeks per seed I moved to -56, -4099 and got 26 leeks per seed

have not isolated the boundaries of the leek area - Hale

Cabbages

Same. Not got a clue

Things That Don't Work

We need to start pooling ideas and things that don't work so we can eliminate things when we find a decent yield.

  • Height

Sami

I asked Sami whether he had any hints for us concerning cabbage yield. He gave a very cryptic response. Whether it's of use or whether it's just ravings is up to you. Here is the transcription:

Yes I do infact...

As a boy, I much enjoyed some of the vegetable dishes that our chef would prepare...

Huge platters of the very finest and freshest cuisine, presented beautifully...

How often is it that children don't like vegetables...

But when prepared by a master like the family chef, they are a delight, to the old and the young

Discussions on Sami

He mentions age quite a bit. Hint somewhere there?
