Farming 60 in 60 hours, or I delete my Main Profile [3]

Storyline (what the run is trying to accomplish)

The video follows a speed-run style challenge where the creator restarts from early farming progression and pushes to Farming Level 60 as fast as possible (target: 60 hours).

The run repeatedly advances through questlines—most notably Sam’s quest and multiple prerequisite tasks involving Beth—to unlock key garden power features such as:

• Greenhouse systems
• Mutation systems
• Later access to higher-tier armor

The “story beats” mostly revolve around:

• Efficiently building the farm (expanding plots/rows, clearing obstacles)
• Unlocking systems needed for fast XP (visitors, pests, greenhouse)

• Turning the run into a pest-farming economy (pests increase harvest value and reduce waiting time, enabling more XP/hour)

• Eventually switching to greenhouse crops and competition-focused farming to secure all required gold/achievement milestones

Gameplay highlights / key strategies

Core XP plan for reaching Farming 60 quickly

Traditional farming XP isn’t enough, so the creator relies on a combination of:

• Pests (farming experience + garden progression)
• Visitors (quest progression + copper funding)
• Greenhouse/mutations for stronger output and sawdust/upgrade pathways

This is explicitly optimization-focused because Farming 60 requires 111M XP, and 800k XP/hour × 60 hours is not sufficient.

Quest and progression unlocks used to enable the run

Key progression points include:

• Early goal: reach around Farming 13 to start Sam’s quest
• Garden expansion:
  • Unlocking Garden level 4 enables sawdust-related systems and “chips” (upgradeable stat bonuses)
  • Jeff quests unlock important mechanics, but require items like 250 copper and/or visitor handling
• Mutation prerequisites:
  • Multiple Beth visits are required to reach the point where the creator can use the mutation analyzer and unlock key mutations
• Greenhouse:
  • Obtained by talking to the carpenter in the hub
  • After placement, it’s used for mutation-based high-efficiency harvesting

Pest-hunting as the main engine

The strategy becomes farming pests constantly to:

• Increase harvest levels and garden level
• Unlock new crops/milestones
• Reduce visitor waiting time by 30 seconds, increasing XP/hour

To improve pest frequency, the creator stacks:

• Gear/sets and chance modifiers
• Pets, notably a mosquito with a brown bandana
• Gems/bonuses that increase pest spawn chance

They describe a “pest bestiary” goal to strengthen the brown bandana, aiming for roughly 95% pest chance eventually.

Critical gear/upgrade decisions

Important decisions include:

• Building around the Gauss carrot hoe as the main tool
• Using chips and other upgrades for:
  • Pest chance
  • Luck
  • Farming efficiency
• Addressing an early mask/attribute issue: once they buy the needed attribute solution (noted as Syphon of the curse mask), garden functionality improves significantly
• Avoiding getting stuck with unusable upgrades by pausing when requirements are unclear

Two-set “pests vs luck” optimization for sawdust/harvesting math

Because pests appear only about 5% of the time during normal farming, the creator keeps two gear sets:

• Moss set for high luck most of the time (sawdust scaling uses luck)
• Praying mantis set to maximize pest appearance chance, swapped in when pest cooldown hits 0 seconds

This improves average sawdust and makes chip leveling more efficient.

Mutation choice: Turtellini

They unlock and use the Turtellini mutation, planting it in three greenhouses.

Its key advantage (as described):

• Zero growth stages, so it’s harvest-ready immediately

Output impact mentioned:

• Roughly 11–12 harvests per stage
• About 700,000 sawdust from greenhouse cycles

Competition / gold achievement completion

Jacob’s competition objective

The creator must place first in a Jacob’s competition tied to 10 unique cultures (gold milestones).

Their approach:

• Use pest-driven growth + harvesting output early
• Shift to greenhouse crop farming near the end to reliably secure enough volume for gold

Final competition plan

In the final approach, they prepare plots for:

• Sunflowers
• Melons
• Wheat

They also reference a “Diamond in the melon challenge,” confirming they obtained all 10 unique gold rewards needed for Farming level 60 progress.

Key step-by-step moments (condensed)

• Restart/early growth
  • Start from early wheat harvesting → reach Farming ~13 → begin Sam’s quest
• Garden expansion
  • Push garden level forward → unlock sawdust + chips via Garden milestones (and Jeff-related progression)
• Resource enablement
  • Use visitors (e.g., bribes with Bachelor’s roses) to obtain copper and quest materials
• Greenhouse + mutation unlocks
  • Obtain greenhouse (talk to carpenter)
  • Complete repeated Beth prerequisites to access mutation analyzer
  • Unlock mutations—specifically Turtellini
• Optimization loop
  • Stack pest-chance modifiers (gear + pet + gems)
  • Farm pests to speed visitor timers and gain garden XP
  • Level chips using sawdust/greenhouse output
• Final milestone completion
  • Win gold in competitions across all required unique cultures
  • Finish with greenhouse-heavy farming
  • Use remaining time to reach Farming 60, then confirm against the playtime target

End state / result

The creator reports the run target as successful:

• Farming level 60 achieved under the intended time
  • Stated as 58 hours in the final check
• They also mention current farm condition with ~158 hours total playtime on the profile
