What's everyone else's record on the 5 day rush? How did you do it? I attempted it last night and got to 54k (and got the achievement). Didn't think I was going to make it in all honesty.

As soon as I spawned in I cleared the Ranch of Pink slimes and picked up as much food as possible, competing with Pink Slimes, fed the Pink Gordo for its Slime Key and unlocked the Moss Blanket. Picked up a bunch of Honey Slimes and Boom Slimes, found a couple of Puddle Slimes and was even lucky enough to get Mint Mangoes. One-way teleported back and went straight to work on growing the Mint Mangoes, upgrading the HoneyBoomers' corral and bought a Pond as soon as I could afford it. As I got more money I got more gardens and corrals and got more Honey and Boom Slimes. Paired each corral with a fully upgraded Garden, then removed each garden's crop once the Mangoes became ripe then replanted them, which actually makes food growth cycles go faster.

Only did the Range Exchange once since majority of their requested trades were BS. Doable, but would've wasted too much time.

I could probably have bought the Overgrowth or the Grotto to expand the Ranch then gone to grab more Booms and Honeys, as there was quite a bit of time being wasted waiting for HoneyBoomers to eat and collect plorts. And where I was removing plots and replanting them I had a lot of spare Mint Mangoes (30 in each autofeeder, a lot inside corrals not being eaten) which could have done with being fed to more eager mouths.
