Actually, there are a lot of people that make arguments for facing directions while synthing, though the usefulness if existant is probably exaggerated. And according to the common belief, south is the correct direction for an earth crystal synth.

ok i have heard from people tht moon phase effects crafting, some say its better to be a full or a new moon, others say closest to 50% is best, is either true?
And i have gained ok profit from these, i get about 3k-4k profit per synth off of these, linen thread still makes higher profit per a stack but also takes more gil to make. With me and my mule selling hose in different countries, they dont sell slow at all.
The lvl it says here is not what lvl u can make it, it's the lvl cap, mean at what lvl you will stop gaining exp. from it. You can making anything as long as when u put in the ingrident, playonline does not pop up a msg saying that your lvl is too low. The only thing with synthesising at much lower lvl is that the failure rate is also higher. But given the right day and synthesis support, you can still make it if you are a couple of lvls below the lvl cap.
right day? is that decided by the item you are trying to make, guild item is under, or just random luck? anything to help raise skill is good to know ^_^
By 'right day' he means choose to synthesize on the day where the recipe will have the highest chance of success.
The day of the week PRIOR to the crystal's elemental type is considered the best day to synth an item with a skill cap higher than your present skill. In this case you want to make these on Firesday for best results.
The day of the week OF the crystals's elemental type is also reportedly a great day to synth. So Earthsday is right up your alley.
Personally I have not noticed a substantial difference bewteen synthing the day before and the day of, so I treat it like 2 full game day's time as my window of opportunity for highest yield from ingredients.
Of course advanced imagery support helps a lot, to boot.
There are numerous posts on the tradeskill forums on optimizing your synths, go have a look. ^^
The information here is wrong, i can make this at lvl 20 clothcraft with advanced synthesis support. The NPC in the clothcrafters guild gave me the recipe.
The NPC's always give you recipes that are at or above your level. Certain NPC's in the guild always give you recipes that are way above your level while other NPC's give you recipes that are just above your level. This is true for every guild
