How many times can marge speed up a crop?

Was just wondering if marge can reduce a crops growing time by more than four hours, ie can she be sent to speed up a single crop more than once, it would be a great help with growing roses!

yes she can

    Yes, as long as you reset her task after 4 hours. If she sits idle after 4 hours, no extra bonus.

    You can do it 6 times a day. Each time takes off 4 hours in addition to the 4 hours of natural time. Can be used on Silvertongue, Tiffids, Moonshine, Corn and the Rose Bush.

    That's good to know, I might even consider growing corn after the valentines event!

    I can also confirm Marge can be effectively used for a crop multiple times. Including Rose Bushes.

    Source: I've been doing it.

    Marge's task will probably be gone then.

    Um, no. Her 'Speed Up Crop' task isn't going anywhere. It's been in place since the costume was released during the first Halloween event.

    The only problem with witch marge on 24/7 crop duty is you can't send her on her romantic evening with homer task.

    I'm with john there. I have been sending Marge so much I didn't even realize I could send Marge and Homer on that task more than once. Once she's done with the tomacco, I'm putting her on it with Homer

    FYI I had 3 hours and 40 minutes left on the roses, used her to speed up the crop, and it only cut it down to 1 hour and 40 minutes...

    If there is less than 4 hours remaining she cuts the remaining time in half.

    Probably the best skin purchase I ever made, definitely in terms of ROI.
