This is only my second game (started playing in Jan), and my first by myself. I came up with this pattern to use the 4 & 8 sprinklers, while leaving space for honey (& scarecrows) for farm totem materials. It is a bit of a rough layout because I incorporated the pond so I could reach water if I needed in the beginning.
This way you don't have to scrap what you have already made. I have a grid scrap drawing I created to come up with this, but I'm not sure which is easier to understand, it or this picture lol.
Maybe when I get to iridium sprinklers I will figure out a better way to place things like green beans. I got carried away last time and put them in a line instead of every other like I had planned.
