6th Gen Need some information on berry farming

[Thunderflare]

I've been trying to find information on growing berries but haven't been able to find much. I know that you can water them once every four hours, but I don't know how that effects the yield. I also have no clue how long each berry takes to grow.

I haven't tested this, but according to Bulbapedia a formula for calculating the berry yield in ORAS is:

yield = (max_yield - min_yield) / (growth_time / growth_cycle) * water_count + min_yield

The growth times for each berry type can be found here, and the growth cycles and min/max berry yields for ORAS can be found on Serebii's page.

So for example if we planted a Coba Berry (min yield of 2, max yield of 10, growth time of 32 hours, growth cycle of 8 hours) and we watered it 3 times (of a maximum possible 4 for this growth time/cycle), then the yield would be:

(10 - 2) / (32 / 8) * 3 + 2 = 8

For some berries you may need to round the result up to get the correct yield.
