EDIT: Just saw your post, Bale. Thanks. Can you clarify how it works in baby steps, please? Would it be something like what I say above?



If I understand your question correctly, then I think that yes, you should be able to alternate between peppermint and pumpkins on a daily (or every 4 days) basis.



Edit: But like the other guy said - if you pick your pumpkins and then plant peppermint, you won't be getting any peppermint that day - as I, among others, have have learned in a disappointing manner. Whenever you plant the peppermint seeds, you are given back a packet of pumpkin seeds. I think it's safe to assume that planting pumpkin seeds while you are currently growing peppermint will give you back a packet of peppermint seeds.If I understand your question correctly, then I think that yes, you should be able to alternate between peppermint and pumpkins on a daily (or every 4 days) basis.Edit: But like the other guy said - if you pick your pumpkins and then plant peppermint, you won't be getting any peppermint that day - as I, among others, have have learned in a disappointing manner.
