- As a bonus, the cauldron also has a pretty nice multiplier (2.25%, I think). Got her as soon as I saw she was available.
- she also has 3 great outdoor visual tasks (4 including trick or treating) - speed up crops, stir the cauldron and ride her broom. She's a great character IMO.
- Can someone explain how the speed up crops works? Can I use it over and over to shorten corn growing?

yes she takes 4 hours off of long crops and halves shorter ones. Best Skin plus the caldron, a must have. She is unusable while speeding up crops but earning as she speeds them up so she can't trick or treat and speed up a crop as the same time, those are two different takes. On speeding up crops she takes off 4 hours each time you assignee her that task. Corn 90 days. Marge brings it down to 89 days and 20 hours. But you can keep reassigning the task every 4 hours to keep taking 4 more hours off each time. It's a slow grind but helpful. She really came in handy back when we kept having to grow rosebushes and Carrots.- For her eight hours task, she flies around on a broom. 4 hour task speeds up crops.
- thanks everyone!

So just to make sure I understand this correctly, if I plant corn and then start Witch Marge on her 4 hour speed up task over and over without a break, I'd be able to harvest the corn in 45 days instead of 90? If it takes off 4 hours for every 4 hours she spends speeding up crops it should eventually meet in the middle. Correct?barszap785 wrote:

that would be correct if you have someone to take a shift or you never sleep. (lol). There was aglitch where the second speedup instead added 4 hours but I believe that has been fixed.
the 4 hour speed up is better than the 4 hour GMO plant in my opiniondatasurgeon wrote:

By the way harvesting corn is rubbish for the amount of time/work that goes into it, you could earn more by planting tobacco every 30 mins in the long run. Even in my main town with a 350 percent multiplier it doesn't seem to make a dent in my cash or XP. But you still should get witch Marge. I wish more characters had super powers.- Good to know about Marge being able to trick or treat! I bought her a couple days ago and never really bothered to look at her tasks! Thanks for that reminder
