1,how can i be a excellent player on facebook?
you will harvest what you plant the last time you logged on, your farm's capabilities will raise with your hard work, every player has the same goals, to obtain more coins to plant more crops, to gain experience to add more things you can do with your farm.
2,get more friends for your farm on facebook which is really useful to get more coins and experience. so many player even add strange as neighbours for their farmville. so communities is a place where you can get more friends, so take action to join some.
3,plant the right crops, different level can plant different crops, so it is hard to make a decision, you can plan the crops which can be harvest in a short time but can not give you more coins and experience, or you can plant the crop which will take a long time to grow up but can give you more coins and experience. farmers should know you gain 1 exp but cost you 15coins every time you plough the farm which means the crops grow fast can get you more exp but cost your more coins than the crops gorw slowly.
4, never give up! some farmers less of the insistance and patience. they will give up after one week or two, and finally come back. if your are that kind of player, i suggest that you plant the crops which take long time to grow up, and during the time you can take a break. and you log on regularly to plant and visit your neighbours' farm. also you can make your own plan to plant and predict the harvest time.
