With the introduction of the new Limited Edition and Magical Pots many players find that they don't have enough diamonds
to buy them and that the numbers of diamonds needed can look a bit scary! But it is not that hard to conserve diamonds and
save enough for any pot with a little patience :)
Here are a few tips:

Diamond Dusting friends plants
While it may seem like a sweet gesture, many people in the game actually meticulously plan out their gardens timings. If you DD their plants without them having asked you to, they might actually get upset. Here is an analogy for you: it's the same as if you were to go into your friend's kitchen and on a whim you throw a handful of salt into the entire pot of soup they spent all day making, when it was already salted to perfection. You ended up messing up their hard work and the expense they put into it, even though you had good intentions.
Reviving wilters every 3 hours
If you revive a wilting plant after you have collected your 3 hourly gold, most often a Hungry Snail pops up to earn you some gold. Finding some extra gold every 3 hours with a hungry snail is great for earning extra gold, but if you are low on diamonds and have gold then go ahead and revive with gold instead of with your diamonds. This will help save you a few diamonds. The best part is that you are still going to get some gold back as reviving costs 2 gold and you get back at least 3 gold, and then it will be 5 gold after you have completed all of your Herbalism.

Dusting plants
If you usually dust your plants until 'Fully Grown', try to use less diamond dusts - waiting a few hours for a plant to become 'fully grown' will conserve a lot of diamonds. These charts (below) are based on using a DD for a minimum gain of 12 hrs off the growth time. Using any more is just wasteful and will not help you towards your goals of being able to purchase Limited Edition and Magical Pots.

PINK DIAMONDS - Introduced 14th December 2012
If you time it right, you can have some plants 'Growing happily' while you have other plants
attracting something in your garden, saving even more dust.
Example of why the 12 hrs minimum rule for dusting is SO important!
Gathering Pixies Mushroom
(FG) Fully Grown after 7 days
with no diamond dust you will wait 7 days from the time you plant it until it deters M&M's
1 dust - 3 days 12 hours
2 dusts - 1 day 18 hours
3 dusts - 21 hours
4 dusts - 10.5 hours
5 dusts - 5.25 hours
6 dusts - 2.5 hours
7 dusts - 1.25 hours
8 dusts - 38 min
9 dusts - 19 min
10 dusts - 9.5 min
11 dusts - 4.25 min
12 dusts - 2.12 min
(It will actually take a total of 14 DD to bring it all the way to completely fully grown! That is 84 diamonds!!)
To clarify, the first 3 DD reduces the time down from 7 days to 21 hrs, but after that, it doesn't take anything substantial off the time.
It is very wasteful, if you are trying to save up ~ waiting that last little bit saves you 66 diamonds! Isn't it worth the wait?
Garden set-up
If you use plants that attract while RFH, it will save you from needing to use your diamonds to dust new ones once they lose their attraction powers. The only thing which will need to be regrown and dusted to FG is the mushroom in that scenario. Even if you are attracting something average, two organic plates of wildlife valued at 2 diamonds each will still give 20 diamonds per day just from gardening- no hunting required! The Hedgehog/Albino/Badger set-ups are good because you have a chance at albino wildlife that are worth 10 diamonds each and everything is RFH- its also 30 diamonds if you get an Albino Bagdger to show up, and 7 diamonds for the regular ones. Kiwis also work exceptionally well to accrue diamonds with only the mushroom needing to be regrown to keep its deterrent powers up. See the Kiwi Experiment for more info.
