I think the act should be seeding, but that's one of my problems with English ;)#4: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Sep 30, 2021
@ Aurelian: And worms that are inside the guava.
No, I don't think I'd eat them, but you are more than welcome to have mine.#5: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Oct 2, 2021

Fun puzzle! Now for the classification of "needs moderate lookahead.#7: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Oct 3, 2021
With all but 2 left-half squares filled in, I used edge logic on column 20.
I also filled in all the black squares except two in R1/R3/C18/C19.
The arithmetic doesn't seem to allow for any line logic once you cover the left half. No hints when you push (L), either.
All the digits remaining sum to less than half of the consecutive open squares of each row they're in.
Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by dbouldin.#8: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Oct 3, 2021 [HINT]
after color and line logic i think i got to where andrew describes because i also only have two blank squares in the left half and hints are dry. here is the one advanced move i did to proceed:
- whether C19R3 or C20R3 is green, C18R4 is a dot
this prevents the green 11 in R3 from going into C18. fun solve!!
