The Christmas wieners and beans are stewing in the crock pot and all is well on the hearth and farm…whatever in Christophers name that means…I been hittin’ the pipe today since I jimmied my back shoveling snow….probably not making too much sense right now….but HEY! Tis’ the season to be jolly, am I right?
So, here in my chair in front of the fire I bin gittin’ philosophical..pondering the year and all of it’s glorious green bounties. Pondering the good health and well being of family and friends, missing old mates and lost relations.. and wondering where the heck I left my truck…
But you know – I really just wanted to say Merry Christmas to you all – and I know… not everyone that stops by here gives a hoot about Christmas…but in the non-denominational sense of brother and sisterly spirit I do wish the best to you and yours at this finite juncture of holiday and year-endish reality,
This is a special time of year, one that allows us a day or two to appreciate the great abundance in our lives, sit back with family and friends and enjoy the simple pleasure of being well fed and cared for.
Ezra, the family turkey, survived another year – we just didn’t have the stomach to serve him up with brussel sprouts and mashed potatoes after his heroics in the Fall.
Oh, maybe I forgot to mention Ezra’s amazing watch dog skills.
Well, back on Halloween – we had been doing a bit of “harvesting” on plantation zero in the afternoon. We heard a hell of a commotion at around 8pm or so and at first we thought maybe some kids were pulling some Halloween shenanigans. I took the dog around back to check it out and suddenly 3 guys come blazing through the field with Ezra hot on their heels gobble-ing and flapping and looking like a mad mother hen only about 20 pounds meaner. It appears the poachers were after the harvest – and Ezra wasn’t lettin’ them have any of it.
Good old Ezra.
Anyways this Thanksgiving, we ate the brussel sprouts and the mashed potatoes – only we had pizza instead of Turkey. And Ezra got a piece of apple pie for his good work.
Howdy Pot Farm Freaks! It’s Halloween!
Now I don’t get a heck of a lot of little visitors on Halloween night since I don’t exactly have the farm advertised. But I do like munchies and I don’t mind curling up on the bean bag with the dog and bong and watching a good thriller on satellite.
Now in the spirit of trickery and such, I found this little nugget relating to Pot Farm cheats and thought I’d repost in case it made sense to anyone that cares about such things. I don’t personally advocate cheating, since, well…my mama raised me right, but lord knows I ain’t the only one in the world with an idea on how things should be. Try it at your own risk, I won’t.

Phineas here,
I get all sorts of letters from Pot Farm players – some askin’ me how to fix their game problems (answer: No Idea..I’m not the developer, but thanks for stoppin’ by)
Others are about certain tips and strategies or facts I’ve screwed up on the site and some are just funny. Here are a couple from this last week. Keep ‘em coming farmers…
- “So I figured out that those surveys was a pretty neat way to get some extra pot bucks for my farm. But after i filled out for about 70 pot bucks and waited a couple of hours and realised i didn’t get ma’ pot bucks i was starting to wonder if I would ever receive my precious pot bucks?
Btw thnx for awesome time to spend my days at work
- “Facebook restricted it so how am I supposed to play!? Im trippin out here lol.
-”To whomever it may concern,
I just leveled up to 28 today and bought the land upgrade; however, when I went to help my friends and then returned to my farm, the 3rd land upgrade was gone along with my purple mushroom protection that I put around the border, and on top of that the Time Warp I planted is in the forested area?! I don’t know if this is just a Facebook error thing or if version 1.0.17 software upgrade had a bug that caused this to happen. Just thought I would let you guys know. Let me know when the issue is fixed so I can get back to the game…”
Got a clip here sent to me by one of my pals down south – some quality canine viewing. My 2 dogs mostly just sleep all day or roll in stuff they shouldn’t, maybe I need to play more merengue music.
The coolest thing I ever saw a dog do (other than save a life or something, like on TV) was fetch a 6 pack out of the fridge for my buddy n’ me. That dog required a full beer as payment though so you had to get your own beer if you were running low. Anyhow, check it out.
Some dude sent me this a while back. Players may find it interesting.
“a lot of people dont know that if u buy 1 whiskey still and grow 1 corn and 1 time warp u can put them in the whiskey still to make pot whiskey, this gives u aprox 35 xp and a lot more doe than u can make from any plant when u sell it, on my farm i have 5 stills and 80 corn plants and 80 time warp plants every time i harvest i gain hundreds of xp and aprox 120000$ just harvest ur corn and time warp then click on the still, this also works with potcorn but u will net the biggest profit from the still. mind u i have not unlocked the nacho machine yet.”
Whoa man, I’ve just got back from a trek to the Shangri-La of Pot Farm’s. Thirty days and thirty nights on camel back – with little water and only a box of Oreo’s.
The farm was on a 60 acre oasis immersed within the palm trees, there were freaks dancing under the full moon and every manner of hookah pipe and water bong blew heavenly smoke day and night.
On 29 June 1950, at the FIFA world cup in Brazil, the
USA defeated England 1–0 in a group match.
This unexpected result has led to the match being described as the “Miracle on Grass”.
Sixty years later, a small group of game developers release a controversial new “grass” farming game on Facebook – just weeks before the commencement of the 2010 FIFA games in South Africa. The USA team once again upsets England in a 1-1 draw.
Coincidence?
“Sorry I got distracted mates, I thought I saw Ranger Dick”
Howdy Pot Farmers, Phineas here. So all is well on my two farms (heh, heh – yup, 2 is better than one).
The game loaded passed “stiffling giggles”, I got to harvest without getting the bummer “refresh your browser message” a hundred times and it appears my friends are right where I left them (dude, one of them is at level 117!)
Checkin’ out the boards, as I like to do every now and then to get the vibe from our Pot Farm fan community, it seems that many folks are having better luck game-wise. Hopefully this positive upturn will last and more goodies will get rolled out soon.
Well, all this time I’ve been talking about Pot Farm game issues and updates I’ve never actually had any trouble with the game loading or gifts and friends disappearing.
Until now….

I managed to get my free “Casual With Boots” outfit on before everything went weird. If I do manage to load the game – I can maybe plant one plant before I get this message.
Ah well. As Pot Farm HQ says – they are a small team that got a bit overwhelmed with the sudden popularity of the game. I know little about servers and mainframes and databases – as I’ve mentioned – but I’m sure if building multi-user games were easy, everyone would be doing it – so obviously there’s something to it.
But I would like to put our problems into perspective here, it’s a game, it’s free, if xp points or gifts disappear – it’s not like we paid for them – there is no race or grand prize at the end that we will miss out on if we miss a day or a week, our families nor our own personal safety is in any danger if we don’t play, it is summer, there are other things to do and our lives will go on.
So to all of you lunatics that are cussin’ mad on the Pot Farm fan boards – get a life, for everyone’s sake.
