Almond orchard

Orchards Gourmet farm

A solid building for players who already have fertilizer production running and want to turn it into almonds - without a guaranteed fertilizer supply it is pointless though.

What it's for

Fertilizer will help you grow almonds in this orchard, plus you will receive fallen leaves for the composter as well. Fertilizer is made in the silo from dung.

Produces

Almonds

Fallen leaves

The almond orchard is a fruit orchard on the Gourmet farm where almonds grow from the fertilizer you feed in (that one is made from manure in the silo) and leaves drop into the composter as a by-product. It sits at the very end of the fertilizer chain - without a working silo and a steady supply of manure it will just stand idle. It suits players who already have fertilizer production up and running and need almonds for further processing on the gourmet farm. It takes up 7x7 and you can buy it straight from the shop, so there is nothing stopping you from having several side by side.

When to build it

The orchard unlocks at player level 24, which is also the earliest point where building it makes any sense - you cannot build it sooner anyway. It is worth putting up as soon as you have steady fertilizer production in the silo, because otherwise it just takes up space. If you have manure to spare, feel free to build two or three next to each other so you harvest more almonds at once - the shop allows it and the level 1 price (50 000 dollars) is not high at all.

Is it worth upgrading

Upgrading pays off as you go, because every level noticeably raises the yield - from 234 almonds per 10 seaweed fertilizer at level 1 you work your way up to 512 almonds from the same batch at max. The price and build time climb steeply though (from 50 000 dollars and 1h 40m at level 1 up to 11 million and over two days at level 9) and the last two levels also require player level 86 and 140, so realistically you will only get there late in the game. Until then it is enough to keep the orchard at a lower level that your fertilizer production can sustain.

Tip from a veteran player The best thing to feed the orchard is seaweed fertilizer - it makes more almonds than regular fertilizer for the same amount of leaves and on top of that it finishes instantly with an experience bonus, so use it whenever you have some to hand and keep the regular four-hour fertilizer for topping up when the seaweed runs out.

Most common mistake The most common mistake is building the orchard before you have fertilizer production sorted out in the silo - the building then stands empty most of the time, because you have nothing to feed it with.
