I cannot believe I wasn’t awarded the 7th Billy Goat to finish the Fairytale.
Clearly it has happened before to others & to myself.
So today I will start the whole process again, for the third time with a heavy heart :(

You can.  It has been suggested, though, that if your big goat doesn't come before one buttercup is RTH, you can leave it in your garden together with your next buttercup, and when the fully grown one is attracting the big goat it will be attracted by the flowering one but will harvest the RTH one.  So you'd get the big goat for both buttercups, even though the one was seemingly too old to be of any use.  You'd have to leave the RTH one to the left of the fully grown one, otherwise the goat would take the fully grown buttercup.

You don't get any more goats than buttercups that way.  But if it works, then it would suggest that you can still get one big goat per buttercup even if the plant goes RTH.

You could only do it by not having the full deterrent setup though, because there's not room in the garden otherwise.

Benni, in another thread, Stef said that she had a big billy goat come to a big RFH buttercup, so it seems that you don't have to have it done before the buttercup is RFH, as long as it's BIG by the time it goes rfh (not confirmed that it may still grow from other goats once it is RFH)

Could you please look into why I have had no Big Billy show up on an entire platter of Superfood?
This is the second time I have tried to get my last Big Billy on a total platter of Superfood.
Thank you for your time

Thank you for spotting :)
