....or to be more precise, they don't appear to grow anywhere but in front of the house you start with, not too far away from the original patch of dirt.
This is early in AS. I extended the platform to the left when you walk out of the house at the same level as the original patch of dirt and planted a sapling on a patch of dirt on a 7x7 cobblestone platform with nothing else on it and a clear view of the sky. The sapling there didn't grow in all the time my other trees on the original patch of land went through five growth cycles. I can bonemeal the problematic tree, but it won't grow on its own.
Another problem: I thought the small space to the right of the original house would be a good place for a tree, removed some of the roof decoration to have a clear view of the sky and planted a rubber seed there. Not only won't the tree grow, but using bonemeal on it does nothing but make it switch between "sacred rubber tree sapling" and "rubber tree sapling". The same procedure used around the original patch of dirt works, rubber trees grow there and can be bonemealed as well. Also, no normal tree will grow on the right side of the house.
At the moment, this is a minor annoyance, but it will become crippling when I get into tree farming. What am I doing wrong?
Edit:
And while I'm at it: this fishing quest is driving me crazy? I have a fishing rod and a 2x2 pond, now how the hell do I get fish? Throwing the hook appears to make it float above the water, even if I aim right. I'm not even sure that I do actually. Do I need to create a giant pool?
