Sorry Pam, but I wasn't trying to discuss recipes, just saying that there is a huge degree of luck involved in this challenge. The optimum price of a players best nectar being one of the factors. There's also a load of other factors, like special seeds for example. Out of the first 12 special seeds I planted, 5 of them were death flowers which proved absolutely useless for this challenge. Another player might only find 3 out of his first 12 are death flowers, and a really lucky player might not get a single one. Also I had a high incidence of money trees, which meant I could afford nectar racks. But I had longer to wait to fill them with good quality nectar because of the low incidence of life fruit.
I think NancyJ has a point when she speculates that different computers might influence the price of any given batch of nectar, regardless of recipe. It will impede some players if they're never able to find a nectar which produces a high simolean return. I apologize if this has breached the protocol of the thread, it was never intended to do so. It was just meant as a discussion about factors which may or may not impede or favour some players final total. Even something as trivial as how often a players nectar machines malfunction compared to anothers is of consideration. At the end of the day, like all challenges, the final total relies on an awful amount of luck as well as good game play.
