[2.0][3.0] New furnishings have been added.


[2.0] A new furnishing, the flowerpot, has been added, allowing players to now cultivate crops indoors.
The flowerpot can be placed within free company estates, private estates, and even private chambers. This furnishing allows players to grow the exact same plants and crops as those in garden plots indoors. In addition to this, there are certain seeds which can only be cultivated in flowerpots. These plants will yield materials to craft gear.
* Intercrossing cannot be done using flowerpots.

Obtaining Flowerpots

Players can now purchase flowerpots from the following NPCs:

- Mist (X:10.8 Y:11.5) – Housing Merchant
- The Lavender Beds (X:11.8 Y:8.4) – Housing Merchant
- The Goblet (X:11.4 Y:9.4) – Housing Merchant

The number of flowerpots that may be placed in private estates and chambers is as follows:

Chamber Size > Number of Flowerpots
Private Chambers > 2
Small > 2
Medium > 3
Large > 4

Seeds

Players will be able to obtain a variety of seeds with which they can begin cultivating their crops. Different types of seeds will yield different types of crops. Seeds will occasionally appear at certain locations where their plants yield crops.

Example:
La Noscean orange seeds can be obtained from the same trees as La Noscean oranges.
* Certain seeds may prove difficult to obtain.

Soil

Players will also need to prepare soil for their flowerpots. Soil type and grade will affect yield quality and quantity.

Cultivation Process

• Planting Seeds

With the flowerpot selected, choose a bag of seeds and your desired soil to begin planting.

• Raising Crops

Plant growth can be promoted through constant tending and the use of fertilizer. The rate of growth, amount of produce yielded, and harvest periods will vary between plants.

• Fertilize Crop

Enrich soil and accelerate growth.
*Can only be applied to a plant once per hour (Earth time).

• Tending Crops

Tend and water plants. Neglected plants will eventually wither.

• Remove Crop

A plant can be removed from its bed before it yields crops. Doing so will result in the loss of any crops currently being grown.
* Seeds and the soil grade selected by players will remain unaffected.

• Harvest Crop

When plants have fully grown, players can harvest their crops to obtain produce. Plants may yield high quality produce depending on how they were cultivated. Players can cultivate one crop per flowerpot.

Flowerpot Plants

Players can use their flowerpot to cultivate seeds, which will yield materials for gear as well as flowers for their estate flower vases. Oldrose seeds, which can only be cultivated in flowerpots, are available in eight color variations, and players will be able to influence the ratio of these colors and the total crop yield by using the following fertilizers:

- Red Pomace: increases the frequency of red
- Blue Pomace: increases the frequency of blue
- Mountain Pomace: increases the frequency of yellow

* Fertilizers other than those listed above may be used on flowerpot plants, but will not influence color.

* Please be advised there is a possibility the timer will be suspended again at a later date should the need arise.

Scheduled Patch Release Date

Tuesday, September 27, 2016
* The exact date and time for the maintenance coinciding with the patch release will be announced at a later time.

Auto-Demolition Counter and Current Home Owners

The auto-demolition timer will be reset for the following players:

Please be advised that the timer will resume immediately after patch data is made available during the scheduled maintenance for patch 3.4. Because of this, there is a possibility the auto-demolition timer may expire for certain estates before maintenance has ended. For those players whose estate will be prepared for auto-demolition within ten days of the scheduled maintenance, an e-mail notification will be delivered to the e-mail address registered to their Square Enix account. We strongly suggest those players log in and access their housing before the scheduled maintenance for patch 3.4.
* The e-mail notification will be delivered to the registered e-mail addresses of all free company estate owners and their free company members, as well as private estate owners.

Confirming Time Until Auto-Demolition

For players who have not accessed their estate in at least thirty days, the status under the Estate tab of the Timers window will indicate the estate is being prepared for auto-demolition and denote the number of days remaining. This status will no longer be displayed upon accessing the estate.

Size > Space Occupied
S > 1
M > 2

Aquariums are available in four sizes, the smallest holding only a single small fish, and the largest holding up to four. Because larger fish take up more room in the aquarium, one must choose carefully which fish they will put on display.
