I been growing tree's on fossil island for awhile now and none of them are getting diseased.
Is it worth it to not pay the gardener?

Growing palm tree's but my orders for papaya consistently go unfilled.

spending 17k on protection for a 37k tree seems like a losing position when ultracompost does a great job at keeping it healthy, and I can just try to use plant revive if it dies.

NEvermind I'm a shmuck Unless I'm missing something here.
I been paying for papaya this whole time (lvl 95 farming) on a 1.6% chance of fruit trees getting sick with ultracompost.
On top of that with plant revive I'd have 75% chance of revival on the 1.6% that do die

Could use iasor seed as well which would reduce chance of disease even more.

yeah gotta step up my hespori runs

First six palm trees, one died used crop revive on it, not lucky so far.
But if this works out I might even start doing magic trees
the chance of your crops dying isnt per growth stage is it?

It is.

Ok thanks looked it up looks like real risk of a tree getting disease and dying on a fruit tree run of 6 trees is 1 in 2.65
On magic tree run it would be 1 in 5.33, but would save 300k spent on coconuts per run
Now I'm on the fence about using the papaya I guess, plant revive works good for minimalizing losses other than the xp its gonna slow down the remaining time to get 99 but cut costs down by about a third.

Just want to 99 so I can plant spirit trees I'll never use because there are other teleports there anyways.

Nevermind magic tree runs are fucked without coconuts there's 12 disease phases instead of 4 on fruit trees.
