There are certain processes in the game, such as growing crops, producing items and resources, brewing tea, delivering goods by plane, and meeting up with characters, that can be quite time-consuming, and we all know that time is priceless.
For more efficiency, the game offers you several options to speed up these processes.
 
There are 5 processes that can be done faster:
  1. Speeding up harvests.
  2. Speeding up animals to accelerate production.
  3. Cooling down the fire pit to brew tea faster.
  4. Speeding up Sid Jones’s plane.
  5. Skipping the waiting time until the next friendly meetup.
Let’s look at each of these processes in more detail.
 
Speeding up harvests
When you tap on the vegetable patch to sow plants, you will see a timer counting down minutes and seconds until the plant can be harvested.
 
 
To speed up this process and harvest the crop instantly, just tap on the fertilizer:
 
 
You can get fertilizer as a reward for completing daily tasks, story line tasks in the journal, and as a bonus for participating in various in-game events. Fertilizer can also be found in expedition chests.
 
The number of fertilizers that you will need to instantly harvest the plant from one vegetable patch depends on the ripening time of the plant. You can check the number of available fertilizers in your inventory.
 
There is also an option to speed up harvesting for bucks.
 
Speeding up animals
Once you have fed the animal, it will automatically begin to produce foods (eggs, milk, etc.).
You can obtain the product instantly if you give the animal extra feed.
 
 
To do that, just tap on the animal producing food and select the fish icon:
 
 
You can get extra feed as a reward for completing daily tasks, story line tasks in the journal, as a bonus for participating in various in-game events, and from expedition chests.
The amount of extra feed for each animal depends on its production time. Extra feed is stored in your inventory.
 
You can also speed up animals for bucks.
 
Cooling down the fire pit
After brewing tea in the fire pit, the fire pit gets overheated, so it will require some time to get cooled down. You can cool it down instantly using ice:
 
 
To cool down the fire pit, tap on one of its sections and select ice:
 
 
You can purchase ice as part of some packs in the bank and also get is as a reward for participating in various time-limited events and activities.
One piece of ice is used for cooling down one fire pit section. You can check the amount of ice that you have in your inventory.
 
Speeding up plane
After sending off Sid Jones’s plane with the orders, normally you will have to wait several hours until it returns to be able to make new deliveries.
However, you can also reduce the waiting time using the walkie-talkie:
 
 
To make the plane return instantly, just tap on the walkie-talkie to get in touch with Sid:
 
 
You can obtain the walkie-talkie for completing certain in-game tasks and in special events. Just like any other item, the walkie-talkie can be found in your inventory.
 
There is also an option to speed up the plane for bucks.
 
Instant friendly meetups
You can meet up with the game characters and improve your relationships with them. Since you can only have one meetup once every 6 hours, you also have an option to come to the next meetup without waiting using a ticket:
 
 
To do that, open the relationship window after selecting a character and tap on the “Meeting for a ticket” button:
 
 
One ticket is required to have an instant meetup with the selected character. You can obtain tickets as a reward for participating in various in-game events.
Tickets are stored in your inventory.
