Awww, well, seems it's not just you. Check out this VN thread.

And just to cheer you up - altho I harvested a gazillion platinum nuggets over the past week - not one of them has sold, I'm guessing due to the massive increase on the market.

*****!!!!!Another interesting fact!!!!!*****
I just read a thread where someone did EXACTLY the same experiment - pots, seeds, days, crystals, the lot --- in 2 different towns --- and got completely different results. So this leads me to think the growing is also related to the nation where the pot originates from.

So for my next experiment I am moving my brass pots to Bastok! Mwahah!
