FarmVille: Quick Growth in Week 1

FarmVille is a new social networking simulation farming game on Facebook. It was launched in June 2009 and has over seventy-six (76) million current monthly users. That is a ridiculous amount of growth in seven (7) months! This is a guide that will help you build a stable foundation for your farm. No cheat codes here. Just pure strategy!!

Getting started on the right path can go along ways towards building up your farm sooner and faster. First tip would be to plant strawberries only. Work on achieving the 3 Star "Mastery" level. This requires extra work and can begin to be boring. But the rewards are much "sweeter" if you can grind it out!

If you stay on top of it, you will be able to harvest strawberries 5 times a day. Gaining you 5 XP per square per day. You'll start off with a twelve by twelve (12 x 12) piece of property. That is one hundred forty-four (144) squares of farm land. Plus, you get one XP for every time you plow a square of soil. That will put you over 1500 XP in Day 1. I was at 2000 XP (Level 10) after Day 1, 5000 XP (Level 15) after Day 2 and 7000 XP (Level 17) after Day 3. That was growing mostly strawberries. It adds up quickly!!! Level 20 will be right around the corner.

Don't oversleep! 4 hours after harvest, the strawberries will wilt and you will lose your potential earnings. Keep an eye out for the new "unwither" feature. You can restore your crop if they wilt. A safer seed to plant while sleeping or at work would be the pumpkin. It will harvest every 8 hours.

Buy land expansions and farm equipment when you have saved enough coin. This will act as a multiplier effect on your harvest. If you are looking to gain quick coin growth. Plant raspberries. They will not earn you any XP but they can earn you double the coin earnings in comparison to the strawberry.

Don't get side tracked wasting money on things you don't really need. Stay focused, patient and disciplined for the first week. You will truely surprise yourself and your neighbors. Also, help your neighbors. That will gain you coins, XP, ribbons and a little respect. After the first week, I was at 18,000 XP (Level 24). Had 2 dairy farms, 1 horse stable, 1 chicken coop, 1 tractor, 1 spreader, 44 ribbons and an 18 x 18 farm. If you can make it through week 1, week two will be a breeze. Focus on the Fruits and the Rewards will be Sweet!

The picture at the top of the article is of Haiti's flag. They need all the support we can give them. The more we help, the quicker the people of that devastated country can get back on their feet. We can help to rebuild the country to be better than it was before.

Good Luck

Happy Farming

God Bless and pray for Haiti
