@SoulGal7 Thanks for asking @Brennachan Thank you for answering
Luckily I had enough to cover (barely) so I paid and moved forward. I did debate rolling back the save.
As for not paying the bills I have never played that way. Not really sure what actually happens. Read somewhere (?) it also will not let your household use power/ water on other lots if yours is shut off.

A big part of the challenge is deciding whether to pay your bills or not. It will affect the outcome of Challenge 2. Since your lot is off grid, nothing on there will be affected by power or water being shut off. You can still water your plants, and use the grill and bonfire with everything shut off.
If you decide not to pay your bills every time, you will need to get rid of the cooler that the Murkland Mercantile Company stocks for you.
@EuphorialQueen -- on a perfect trash plant bush, a trash plant will be labeled as "normal." However, when it goes into the inventory or if a trash plant fruit is placed in the world, it will show up with the perfect level and will be worth more.
The ones I planted before seemed okay but then again I only paid attention to the quality of the plant itself. Though I swear some fruits were Excellent at one point. I will just have to go to the Cliff Dwellers and explore there.
*I did pull out a Normal one (that should have been Very Nice at this point) and it was still Normal. Will try traveling and see if that helps.

There definitely is a glitch so @crinrict and @SimQARobo are incorrect in stating that. The trash fruits used to evolve with the trash plant bush.

Hello.
If a Normal trash fruit becomes Perfect when placing into inventory or into world, that is indeed strange. We can take a look at that.

Thank you so much @SimQARobo! We Murklanders appreciate very much it as the trash fruit is a huge part of our post-apocalyptic challenge!

The thread that was posted at AHQ was made on 09-13-2014 .. so shortly after release and I've tested it at that point and could verify that it was there from the start.
Are you sure it worked at one point ?
Don't wanna spam your challange thread so maybe come over to AHQ and post about this in the thread ?
@SimQARobo and @crinrict
A hearty welcome to you both in the fabulous murky Murkland world created by @Brennachan !
*passes around the beer and tofu dogs
@Brennachan and @EuphorialQueen
I wish to chime in to add that my personal inventory contains "Good" and "Very Nice" trash fruit from my trash plants plus "Perfect" trash fruit that I harvested "somewhere."
Brennachan, I'm so excited about the contest whatever it will be!!!
A big thanks to @lessthanzero1013 for assuming the mantle of judge!

@crinrict -- this fruit (pictured below) reads as normal on the bush but when in the inventory they are perfect -- but these are perfect trash plants I had saved from way before). @EuphorialQueen is saying that some of her evolved trash plants that she is currently evolving are not even changing to the right level once in her inventory.
@crinrict and @SimQARobo -- here are some saved trash plants that I had saved to my library in a room. The trash plant is perfect AND the fruit is perfect.
@BlueJeans04989 - that is correct about only making the deodorizing cream - it's in the rules, and we are not permitted to use potions. Welcome to Murkland!
@Brennachan Valeda and I trust you with our Murky existence. She has been jogging, fishing, socializing and learning Yoga while waiting for plants to mature so they can be evolved.
@EuphorialQueen That's great! I also had trouble finding some of the households on the galley. Especially the Turbo Pumpkins and the Infected, I could not find them at all. I suggest linking to the post on the front page of this thread!
Ohh and I just wanted to report on the trashplant fruit issue. I also have a bug in my game .... all of my plants are perfect quality, but the fruit is just normal, even after picking them ... they still say normal. It does not seem to matter if laying on a table or kept in my inventory they still say normal and sell for only $1 each. If there is a way to get rid of this game bug ... please share I would love to fix this issue in my game!

Trash Plants started from piles of trash and evolved to Nice quality yield Normal quality fruit.
(Not necessary but just to be thorough)
- Deleted all existing Trash Plants from lot.
- Started new trash piles to grow all new plants.
- Harvested all plants at Normal level and fertilized all plants.
- Evolved all plants to Nice quality.
- Harvested a single random Nice plant.
- Harvested fruit was only Normal quality.
My next step will be to test with a harvested wild plant. *Testing purposed only*Edit: Zero Mods / Zero CC
