You can check my park if you wish, so you can see my shrines. Yes, the use of gems speeded this process up, but I only used them to speed up the breeding process, but even then, I didn't need to use them. For food, Beanstalk = 100,000 food per hour. I'm level 30 and have 11 of the largest treat farms(I believe that's the maximum). That's 1,100,000 per hour. I tend to check in on this hourly, collecting the coins and creating more food. After about 5-6 hours, I would have 6,600,000 food, which I would then feed to, say a firefly dragon, taking 2 shrines at once (lightning and fire). And as the incubation time for this dragon is so low, you can make more food for that dragon. Feeding dragons with low incubatuion times, such as Seaweed, Air, Firefly, Flower, and regular earth dragons (I've missed a few, but that's not the point) is more effective than waiting for say, a tree dragon to breed/incubate then feed to level 10-15. And I don't spend dollars, I'm British ;p
