Re: [ARCHIVED] Reapers rewards: grafting not producing orchids or pomegranates

@Knotwise13 Hi, I am working on that very thing right now, with seasons it is a pain too because they are all seasonal, I will post my season tricks in a new thread on EA answers. Grafting there is two kinds of grafting merging and creating special plants. Make sure you graft cherry to an Apple Tree plant, not the Spliced Apple Tree plant, that should change the tree to young again, and will say Pomegranate Tree. Now you graft a Lily onto a Snapdragon to get a Orchid. Than you graft the Pomegranate to the Orchid, and you will get a Death Flower, keep in mind you will only get 1 death flower from 1 deathflower bush, so how do you get more death flowers by splicing it to another plant, I usually choose the trash plant, because they bloom every season, and trash fruit might not taste great as it is but it has its uses, plus getting a death flower ever day is a winner! Also there is a rare chance you will find a death flower or poomegrante or Orchid fishing. I hope it helps. I try to graft my plants to the other seasonal plants so I can get them in all seasons, and always graft tree fruit to bush plants because you get more harvests faster.

    this post is saying that grafting the plants the correct way does not produce the right harvestables. Not that they don’t know how to do it. 

    I have tested this myself and grafting plants is broken. The plant will never produce anything new, even though the tooltip indicates that it will

    @rory_nutt Grafting is working just fine for me. When I get to that stage I will post back if I have any problems.

    Tried, & in greenhouse, pomegranate & orchids wouldn't be there to harvest, only the original fruit, even though plant says it was part pomegranate & orchid plants now. Tried 3 in game sim weeks. Gave up & used phone. If planting doesn't work plus all the reverting to dirt pile problems, we shouldn't be getting an event like this making us waste our precious time planting for nothing, & should have just told us to only buy the flower from the start & warn us planting is nearly impossible.🫤

    Update: 😏ok, NOW I get one pomegranate.😮‍💨. Days later. (..still no orchids though.)😬why is this being so hard..

    @jpkarlsen My plants are in a green house, they are sheltered. No orchids or pomegranates EVER. This is absurd. I’m counting the grafting skill as BROKEN

    So I got cuttings of both snapdragon and Lily plant and I get the snapdragon, Orchid, and Lilies.  I don't know I thought it was supposed to change the plant to Orchid?

    Nope. Grafted plants always give out everything that was grafted to them. You'll get an Orchid from the grafted plant and be able to plant the orchid to get a pure orchid plant. 

    If you graft a Snapdragon to a Dragonfruit you'll have a plant that gives you both Snapdragons and Dragonfruit but that also has a chance of giving you a Cowberry.. which is good because if it just changed into a Cowplant there'd be no way to farm cowberries.
