However, other planting effects will otherwise continue as normal, consuming petals at a rate proportional to [[squad]] size, and maintaining the seedling growth rate bonus. Zones do not affect other players or their planting, nor are they visible to other players. | ||
To place a privacy zone, a player must open the settings menu, followed by the "Privacy" and "Flower Planting" submenus, and then select "Create Privacy Zone". A zone's radius of effect can range between 50 to 300 metres. Zones will be named after their district location by default, but this can be changed by the player. A player may add as many as 5 concurrent privacy zones, which can be deleted or have their locations, sizes and names edited at any time. | To place a privacy zone, a player must open the settings menu, followed by the "Privacy" and "Flower Planting" submenus, and then select "Create Privacy Zone".

The doubling effect is done by planting 2 flowers in each cell instead of 1, not by increasing the planting radius. The cooldown period before the same player can plant into the same cell again remains the same. [[Big Flower]] flower counts, progress towards coins earned from flower planting, and progress towards Event Challenge missions are all affected by the doubled output. | The doubling effect is done by planting 2 flowers in each cell instead of 1, not by increasing the planting radius.

When sending your Pikmin on expeditions, be careful about sending Pikmin from your squad, since if your squad size is reduced below a certain threshold, your flower planting rate could drop significantly. Sending standby Pikmin or checking your squad after sending Pikmin on expeditions helps avoid this. | When sending your Pikmin on expeditions, be careful about sending Pikmin from your squad, since if your squad size is reduced below a certain threshold, your flower planting rate could drop significantly.

|Pikmin now receive one [[friendship]] point if they are in your active squad when you a flower planting session ends. One point can be earned for each Pikmin every 24 hours, resetting at midnight local time. New Pikmin can be swapped in after starting a flower planting session, and once the session is ended, one friendship point will be given to any Pikmin who have not received their daily friendship point. | |||
