the real cost is time and sanity 
ya fr ahaa 
so naturally i threw some hops in the greenhouse for some frequent yearround harvests
CA knew what he was doing 
well then maybe this explains why i dont like kegs and jars much
that man loves IPA's bahahha
i mean, i cant argue with the profits, but its a pain in the ass lol
LOL
I prefer animals too so dont process many crops
yaya if you're doing hops that explains LOL
ive been trying to force myself to sheepmax for so long
ima be real i'm super confused still
i'm not too sure what the jars and kegs do still
LMAO bro learned the hard way (but it was worth)
multiplies value of the crop, depending if fruit or veg
jars make vegetables into pickles, fruit into jelly, roe into aged roe
kegs make vegetables into juice, fruit into wine, and assorted products
kegs unlock at farming level 8
you put in crops and it spits out jelly, beer, preserves, etc. increasing their value
or forage
so, do i just put the pumps in jars then sell? or is it more worth it to put them in kegs
the price difference isn't that big, for pumpkin it's a crop that works with both so just use what you have
and crans?
do cranberries in jars and pumpkins in kegs since u have both
in most cases, veges are better pickled
Was it worth it to aged wine in casket room for profit rather than just selling it raw?
still haven't reached lvl8 farming, hope i can soon
yes yes we were just talking abouut it aha
cranberries my preference is dehydrating them, jarring is fine too
btw, how do i get a ton of coal? need for jars
kill
on levels 45/55/65 of the mines
45-55-65-0 (to reset the mines) - 45 again
[[Dust Sprite]] drops them
it's free money that u can just set and forget, so just fit whatever u can into ur basement and sell the rest as-is
kegs do 3x crop value
jars do 2x crop value +50
So, if the crop is very cheap, jars are better because the base amount that is added, but if the crop is high value, getting 3x from a keg is better
for fruit^
ngl for forage i just make tea saplings in normal runs
and sell the saplings?
yep
havent done any of that yet. i have a couple tea plants around, but they seem rather underwhelming
not bad i guess. 250 seems so low when youre aiming for millions xD
dont you have to get like 6 hearts with jodi?
2 hearts with caroline
ah
it used to be 500...
I might try do tea sapling next run. Not a big fan of it as it took entire season to grow one

i sell the saplings as-is
man its crazy how many heart events triggered very late for me
i didnt see clints first 2 heart event until he was already at 10
i know when i first started playing i just straight up never noticed caroline's sunroom
so i never saw her 2H until very late lol
yeah, i remember reading that after 2 hearts you can enter their rooms. so i made the goal to get at least 2 hearts with everyone quickly
and then promptly never went in their rooms
It's one of my most important thing on least on run apart of growing crops
Got lots of recipe earlier game
Lol now I'm at max heart with everyone on town
daffodil OP
im new to game, what is the point of htis game, im on year 1 day 28 of summer with total of 58k\
you invest your money into things that will make more money, then you can decorate your farm (or the world), you can delve into dungeons, or just enjoy the atmosphere
theres no wrong way to play the game
Enjoy the life of farming while you slowly advance
i suppose the point of stardew is to enjoy it. seems simple, but it was built to be non-punishing and cosy
you can choose to min-max your way through, completing everything you can first year, or take 15 years just to fish. whatever makes you happy; do it
I play it cus I love decorating farms
Kinda hurt me earlier game when I wanted to decorate with something but too broke to buy catalogue lol
my farm is ugly 🙁
im just now at a point where i feel like i can afford to burn materials to decorate, but everything is organized hideously
its very efficient, but it looks like crap xD
Hey yall! New here, I’ve been trying to progress in Stardew but have been feeling overwhelmed with how much I need to get thru LOL any tips on not getting over whelmed? My farm still has alot of that crunchy grass (dunno what else to call it 🤣) and I still need to chop down alot of my trees :,)
Doing minimal stuff like fishing
every season the farm will get more of that tall grass, as well as more logs and stones. Early game you really only need to clear out an area you want to work with, dont worry as much about the rest of the farm
Wait that’s so helpful! Thank you! I don’t need to worry about completely clearing it out? I’m still super early in the game rn
I just got chickens tho! Very happy ab that :D
the extra trees and stones out there will serve as good building materials. rigth now jsut focus on elarning the basics of growing crops, and spend some time meeting the villagers
Yeah just clear enough land to plant something
that was where i started really enjoying the game too 😄
Meeting villagers has been so fun. I’ll continue to do this!
How big do you recommend your farm to be for starters like me?
theres no wrong way to play! if youre feeling overwhelmed just remember that you can put off whatever you want until later
that’s so true! I think I’m very type A in that I wanna follow the exact steps 😂😭
thanks for the helpful tips guys!!!
is there a server where I can see everyone’s farms?
well, thats a topic of much debate no doubt. but my personal opinion would be to spend as much money as you can on seeds at the start of the next season, and keep em rolling. just make sure you dont plant something so late in the season it wont grow in time. (at the end of the season all crops will die if they cant survive that season)
lots of people post theirs in #farms-and-outfits !
im not a big fan of fishing, but if you like the fishing minigame then thats a great way to make some early cash, especially late in the season when its too late to grow new crops
if you're interested in lore-type of stuff, there's 1 cutscene that is tied to having 3 hearts with sam
that can only be viewed before winter in y1.
outside of that, and the decision about your farm cave (don't worry about this for the time being if you've not unlocked it yet), there's no things you can permanently miss/can't change and things will always come back, so there's no rush
whats this about the farm cave decision?
I think the coolest thing about the game is how timing works with planting stuff. I think something I’ve learned is that some of my crops have certainly died bc I didn’t give them time to grow. What di you recommend for knowing when to start planting on your farm? I hope that makes sense
you can't change your farm cave (after you've decided it) whereas everything else, e.g. professions can be changed, buildings can be built/moved/demolished, festivals can do in future years, etc.
(outside of save file editing that is)
WOAH farm cave 👀👀👀
As you can tell, I haven’t gotten that far in the game 🤣
no worries at all! it's tied to 25k total earnings so don't worry about it, it's the infamous "fruit bats vs. mushrooms" situation haha
i usually just use the addition method, it never fails for me
the day that i plant and water (e.g. parsnips on day 1)
- 4 days (stated on seed packet) = they will be ready on day 5 ^^
(this is assuming u watered all days, as not watering will halt plant growth)
well, i like to get crops that yield multiple harvests, so i try to always plant everything i intend to grow that whole season on day 1. So for example, i plant coffee in the spring because it will give a lot of harvests through spring AND summer, then the same with corn. Corn can grow in the summer and fall both, so it also lasts a long time and yields a lot of harvests.
since the last day of each season is the 28th, i always spend that day getting prepared for the morning. fill your inventory with the seed you have, make sure you have your tools, maybe even till some of the area (most of it will get ruined, but i do it anyways), and if you have anything left to sell, sell it off before the 1st so you will have plenty of money to buy mroe seeds.
wall of text GO!
my pleasure!
How long have you been playing?
WOW
wanna play with me?
not tonight, but yes ill play sometime soon
I feel like it took me a while to figure the farming stuff out
its 3:30 am here 😅
I’ve been playing on and off since 2024 but I plan to grind this game this year
dont feel bad, im like this with all games. hahaha
Omg are you EST?
apparently i shoulda been working on getting oak resin 💔
mvst be nolifer = 
what should i name my two cows im getting
You’ll get there
What app is this????
its just stardewvalleywiki.com
Website, SDV wiki
Do you guys recommend the Stardew app? I forgot what it’s called
Gunther's library?
If so then absolutely, it's so useful especially when looking for npcs
I didn’t know there was an app 
I just looked it up and it’s called “database for Stardew valley”
i use it too, it helps me track whatever i need for perfection
gunthers library i mean
But then there’s Gunther’s library and another one called Stardew guide: gifts and planner
wiki
what's that?
!checkup
Curious about your in-game achievement status? Tracking perfection? Both *Stardew Checkup * and Stardew.app can help you find what you’re missing.
If you want a more granular checklist/spreadsheet, check out this tracker.
BEWARE OF SPOILERS.
so it's a big checklist?
It helps you track where you are along your progress?
Oooo
ngl i'm not sure if i can get kegs in time
that sounds like adding more hassle to a game thats supposed to be relaxing.
(dont look at my notepad and open stardew wiki tabs)
how much oak resin do i get from a tapper usually?
Is that the only Stardew app you guys recommend? the Gunther one?
HAHA REAL
1
1 resin every 7 days is rough
HI
The time tappers take depends on the tree. Mahogany trees only take 1 night.
Though Not sure why you'd want to tap resin.
kegs
For some reason my mind went to Sap instead of the correct resin....
You are right. Oak trees are commonly tapped for Kegs lol
And takes 7 days
Yeah. Just completely wrong item in my brain flashed up when i read the comment.
ye
can shift click (hold) also, to buy more
If you're on PC. Shift is 5x buy. Shift+ctrl is 25x buy. Shift+ctrl+1 is buy 999.
so when it comes to farming dust sprites for coal, do i just keep going down floors or do i redo 1 floor or smth
i do 45/55/65, then go back up to 0, and repeat
since they are elevator floors
I usually just reset floor 41 over and over. If you get a free ladder you can take it. Then just return to floor 0 once the freebies stop.
The alternative would be if you know there's a monster infested floor.
like, go to them with the ele?
Ye
ic
if u want to also farm iron, then i'd do 45 -> 55 -> 65 -> 41 or 61 -> 0 -> 45
bc iron nodes don't spawn at elevator floors
can bomb kill my chickens running on the field? I want to clear farm after season using it
hello
apparenty not
I need that red quartz which level of cave should I go ?
81
Thanks
can reset 81 itself or floors below 81 also can have
gng what happened to seasoned farmers
they changed it what no why
i linked why lol
Community centre complition is worthit ? I see there are sooo many varieties of stuff
yeah
yep
Yes it unlock more possibility of exploration
i do joja but cc is also rlly fun
Hmm alright will complete it day by day
Jojo ?
It's a corporation that the player were work for before they became farmer

ye
Ohh
Both completion will have unique cutscene

i havent checked this server for over 6 months
Welcome back to the Valley!
Gonna add slime hutch in my world but I didn't know what exactly it's used for
In my 3rd play through and I haven't got a clue what it is meant for lmao
It’s not really the most useful building
Ohhh. Heard it can help with farming ores and stuff but didn't look like it's the efficient way to get it
I see
For the sake of this channel no
Am I the only one who like mallet, hammers and maces more than swords
This is discussion for #stardew-spoilers
Got it
For slow and heavy damage, yes
But I like faster attack
what's/who's everyone's go to bachelor/bachelorette? i'm curious, mine's sebastian
Mine's leah
eyyy i love chatting with her!
sebastian<3
not really, hammers are quite popular bc of the special attack
Gonna pick him on my next run as a female character someday
sebastian lovers unite!! it's crazy bc he's been my bachelor choice since i was 15
from my very first save 🙂↕️
what i would do to experience my first playthrough again
i used to have shane as a favorite lol
he's still a good character but sam's taken the lead for most fave
shane fueled my i-can-fix-him phase, i am not proud 😂
LMFAOOO i always saw shane as a family figure more than a bachelor tbf
Big bonk stick ftw
Helloo
The message about weeds destroying your farm isn't necessarily about crops right? For some reason I thought weeds would infest my crops and I was paranoid
i've never had weeds destroy crops before so i'd say no!
It only happen to my pathways all the time so I guess no
I wanted to answer but I don't know if your message count as a spoiler or not
so write and delete, I'll do the same
If I planted cauliflower seeds day 1 of spring, I won't be able to get the cash from those before the egg festival right? I have money to buy strawberry seeds but id like to buy even more for the start of next spring
yep bc u'd only harvest on the 13th itself and can't sell it in time
Figured, thanks. I have enough money for 192 seeds for this spring and 192 seeds for next spring but would like to get more in case I have more sprinklers
Guys do I lose infinity sword or infinity hammer on death?
helllo my fellow dewdrops
you might, just restart the day if it does
Is there a way to recover it? And how much gold is it
if its the same xp bot i use in my server then it‘s messages sent, not letters. you wont get more xp if you spam the chat, iirc it only counts one message in a certain timeframe, like a minute or so. but this is the wrong channel to ask :)
just lost like, 2-3 super cucumbers in a row
pain
these things genuinely moving like prime lebron
if you send any message you you get 10 xp per min , each level is 300 xp
so lvl 5 is 2 hours ( you start at lvl 1 )
I am about to harvest potato and cabbage any tips for what to do with their rarity stars like should I sell all or sell rare one only and converting others into some stuff and then sell?
I am at year 2 spring season
I'd probably sell and get as many strawberry seeds as you cam
Can
I'm lazy though
Buy a trap bobber! Helped me with the Legendaries too
How many shed do you think are too many? I’m up to my third (it too will be filled with kegs)
As long as you have enough crops to keep them filled then there can never be enough
3 will probably enough though, especially if you've upgraded them
But then you could want a shed for chests, furnaces etc..
They’re all upgraded. Part of it is prepping for my field of ancient fruit. I plant 300+ I think.
I think a big shed is like 150ish kegs
137
this game can get kinda addictive
So 411 kegs across three sheds. I'd maybe get some more ancient fruit seeds
Otherwise 2 full sheds will be fine
Very very addictive
what do u guys do with the crab pots
I always say it's my last day then ill get off, next thing I know a full season has gone
Use them to help with cc bundle then ignore
hmmm i see
Never use them unless I'm playing modded. You can finish the bundle in vanilla without touching the crab pot
They can be good for lobsters though for cooking
should I make a recycling machine for trash
Yes for quartz
It's nice sure
is it beneficial tho
Well yeah lol
Oh ye, you'll need quartz
You get useful items from trash
i get a lot of quartz from mining anyway
Nice is often a synonym with beneficial
There'll come a time you'll run out
Recycler is cheap, and you need a goodly amount of refined quarts for quality sprinklers depending on your exact route
hmm okay
I wouldn't go crazy with them but it definitely has its benefits
Also for lightning rods
And redacted for batteries later too 🤔 Yeah probably 200 or so quarts is about right, maybe 300
Trash them

Or hang up all of them in your house...
If you get the right skills you can use them in your farm to get clams which can be used in fertilizer.
You can use them in your farm without skills
And you can only get clams from them on beach farm
Nvm, am dumb
Yes, salt water
me and fishing have a toxic relationship i swear vro 💔😭
like it's so tedious and mind numbing but holy shit the money is insane
I find it so relaxing
Invest in passive income so you don't care about the money
Just keep at it, you'll get there
it's relaxing until you go for those dumb fucking mutated cucumbers in the ocean
Crops + sprinklers and preserve jars/kegs
fishing is nice but I wish I got the training rod earlier
i did already
Nothing a trap bobber can't fix
today sold my first keg batch (it's like 2 batche but wtv), got like 13k (some were cranberries, some were pumpkins)
pretty solid
wait shit
not kegs my bad
im not getting any pufferfish
jars
Heck yeah
Now you no longer really have to fish for money because just by existing and 3 days of work a season money will come rolling in
you can try to recover it from the adventure guild, but it will be a bit expensive
They only spawn from 12pm-4pm on sunny days at the beach
sunny, summer, after like, and it has a certain time in the day
i meant jars mb 💔
On topic of fishing. Caught the legend. It was pain. Now it’s in a pond while I harvest its eggs
Jars are pretty good too
still can't get kegs, i'm lvl7 farming
Age the roe too
im in year 3 and I just realised there's a bulletin board in cc
dunno, i can't really live off that, i'll still be fishing if i have nothing else to do
hi
nice work
So make more sprinklers and crops until you can live off it
The factory farm must grow
reminds me i still need the eel and other fall fish, it has rained ONCE during the entire fall and i forgot to catch them
the problem is i need more kegs, i got plenty of sprinks and farming land
I got some preservation jars in my shed for such a reason. Plant to make it a round six ponds with sturgeon for roe. Then I’ll have a pond with all legendary fish.
which is a problem since farming coal is extremely tedious and sometimes inefficient
||the children go in the tank||
Hi 👋 I joined bcs I was hoping to find 2 other ppl to play co op with! Is that allowed or do I have to look on reddit 😭
Ooh the money will be rolling in
You cna buy coal
yeah i dont think theres any guaranteed rain days in autumn so its kinda just up to chance
one time i had an autumn where it didnt rain once
If you got the money you can buy it
how much is it?
u get tons in quarry
150 y1, 250 y2
Ty!
Im pretty sure you can get eel in spring too though
Yeah they make 50k when I get a few in the day
it gets more expensive in the second year??
Around 100?
@bold steeple You leveled up to Cowpoke. You can now speak in our voice channels and share images in all channels!
Cowgrats
Inflation ey
nice congrats!
Yes
Kill sprites in the mines for coal
yeah that's what i'm doin
The have to increase cause mayor Lewis increased their taxes 😔
Yeah, stone and wood do too. But buying is still often worth it if you are lazy, because then your farm profits will feed into more farm profits
reason i was fishing so much was since i was upgrading my pickaxe to gold
Or play coop so the coal bags/carts restock
Wait a minute, do you have the vault bundle done? 👀
One thing to note time is money. If you got spare time, go in mines. If not use your money so you can still do other things.
Yo
yuhh
Howdy
i love bombing my quarries

Bello
ohhhh i see thank u thank u
How
I feel sleep and slept through the entirety of fall and second half of my summer ruining my second harvest of starfrut
How do so many people fall asleep whilst playing 😭
That's what it takes for the grind
I was playing at night and it's just such a calming game
But yeah now it's basically winter and I still have fish from fall I needed to catch for the community center sooo
It fulfilled its big dreams
Rip
And I was going to look for a save editor to rewind time but none of them seem to do that
Yeah I think once the save file is changed you can’t go back unless you have a previous copy
What do you mean by rewind specifically?
monster vegetable. i haven't got it yet
Go back to like summer 17 or whatever I was on
Because there's a high probability that you can just change the date
But you won't be able to rewind to a prior save state
Yeah I just want to change the date but none of the the mobile editors seem to be able to do it
Ohhh, mobile. Yeah if you were on PC I could help but consoles are second hand citizens
I mean I would be happy with even going back to summer 28 and then just giving myself the 256 starfruit I lost
I'm told modding in mobile is possible, if cjb cheats is available then that is your best bet
No I don't know anything about it though
Stardew valley save editor can help you there, even if you just give yourself back those 256 starfruit 😅
You could try smapi but I find that very confusing to try and use
In spring year 2, made 47k on my cauliflower harvest and bought 520 strawberry seeds, planted 192 and have 327 left for the start of next spring
When i have more sprinklers
Planted strawberries at night on day 13, how many harvests should I get?
2
If you speed grow you can get 3, but 2 otherwise
Ah I used fertilizer for quality but not growth speed
2 harvests should be a good haul with 192 plants
||It would have technically been worth it to swap perks since that would work too I suppose 🤔 ||
But yeah 192 is solid
What is the best way to get summer squash early in the game?
Seed spots I think
From the seed spots across the map
Those green worms that wiggle on the floor
I did pick the 10% growth speed level 10 farming perk
is there a channel for other games recommendation?
Then you actually get 3 harvests as long as you got them watered on the 13th 
lookling for something similarly addictive to stradew valley, not necessarly sandbox

Do regular help wanted boards give tickets? If they do you could prize machine it 🤔
Oh yeah, sprinklers all the way baby
Help wanted gives 1/3 ticket
As in 3 quests = one ticket
Idk if the seeds are on there tho
The first reward is a seasonal seed guaranteed
I can't figure out how to move my save file
Spring 24-Summer 20 will give the Summer Squash

But the android data folder is a pain in the butt and doesn't like me trying to move files from or into it

IMs o mad imchose
Uhhhh
I’m so mad I chose coopmaster over artists Ian
I have to get into the sewers
You can swap professions
And change thatttuuuhh
Ye
yeah
but after getting ||ganked by flying green gunks and dying within seconds|| I realized i'm not cut out for that shit yet
even had 3 pudge cakes
Starfruit next summer
?
||Sandy sells starfruit seeds || they are quite good

i need battery packs but my little lightning rods aren’t working
Do you guys, as veteran players of the game, have any recommendations for beginners? Like, I know NOTHING about the game, I haven't seen any gameplay and I have no idea what it's like.
What can I sell, what can I keep, what will be useful?
They work when storms happen, that's why theyre lightning rods
yeah i’ve had about 4 storms and they haven’t done anything
is it just a luck thing or
Could consider watching a little begginers guide
Are you sure it wasnt just rain? And how many rods do you have? The more the merrier
It's also a luck thing, but you usually always get packs
i can promise it was lighting hahaha
and i have 4
do they just drop next to it when it happens?
Nah it's like a machine, it shows up on top of it and you collect it from the rod
Well shit, now i got money but no idea what to buy
Animal buildings
496 grass starters
Tool upgrades
19 mills
Hay or wood
For… what? It’s like steak vs. ice cream
Referring to what to buy lol
They’re both essential for their own things. I wouldn’t recommend selling either of them though, or buying them if you can help it
oh yeah, where do i get animals?
You basically only want to buy hay if your animals are starving and you have no other options.
i got a coop
Buying wood is definitely better imo, you can use it to make kegs which makes more money. For hay, you can have animals eat grass and craft grass starter
a lil barren here
Robin sells the buildings, marnie sells the animals
Wood is only worth buying year 1.
still lvl7 farming sadly, waitin to level up to get kegs
Usually I find myself running out of wood pretty often so I usually buy some whenever I have extra money laying around.
If you have the money, buy like, a few chests of wood on winter of year 1 before its price shoots way up year 2
I don’t think I’ve ever purchased wood tbh
Just a little, you’re the most colorful thing in the coop
I’ve never bought wood or stone or anything like that ngl, I didn’t see a reason too when I could just gather the resources myself for free
Gathering enough wood can be hard, especially if you’re using wood to make coal
I think it may becomes a reason when your trying to craft dozens of kegs at a time
where marnie at 
fuck is it because it's monday
Replant trees before spending money on wood
Check the microwave
Her off days are monday and tuesday
did marnie become pizza or smth
Check Lewis’s bed 
I usually do! It’s just that my keg production can’t keep up with the deforestation efforts
Damn lmao
yikes
foul 😭
She likes to stare at the microwave in her spare time
Sometimes you wanna craft 500 kegs but have no wood and no more tree seeds, so being able to buy the wood for those 500 kegs right away means you start using them for wine much faster, making all your money back and more
It's an investment
highkey may just go fish
Fair enough
i ong dunno what to do rn
i could try the new cave but shit, ion think i'm built for it
Upgrade tools, gather ores for machines and sprinklers, clear the forest/secret woods
Mines or fishing is usually a safe bet. Or I do a community center run and drop off things I’ve been hoarding. Or talk to villager?
There's always something to do
All wounds can be healed with enough cheese
already gave abigail an amethyst today
may just work on terraforming my farm a bit more
I prioritize my pick axe and axe upgrades first getting them both to at least steel upgrade wise and I also choose professions to help get more wood and such, so it’s never really been much of an issue for me, I also don’t really have much of a problem finding coal in the mines so that saves me wood too
Hi, where can I find ||“mermaid’s pendant”||?
Oh yeah definitely, upgrade your axe/pick first
Wood can be a lot more scarce if you’re spamming preserve jars/dehydrators/kegs in order to make the most of your crops though
The old mariner sells it on the beach on rainy days
On the right side across the bridge
I mean yeah I guess it’s faster to just buy raw resources to invest in bulk but I just prefer to be cheap
How much?
5k
He needs the money
Oof, k, tysm!!!
that's a lil expensive i dunno if it's omega worth
True, usually trees are pretty abundant for me though and if not I replant them so it all works out for me
Biggest mistake when I first make my pile of kegs is I didn't bought a stacks of woods and stones before the price change
Are you on year 1?
wait, that dude?! Now Ik why he tells me about expanding my house
ye
If you’re insistent on buying coal, it’s much cheaper to buy wood from Robin’s and smelt it
Yeah you need the first house upgrade to get married
only got 1 kiln
Already did it so, ty for the info
Make a couple more with the wood
how expensive is wood?
That could be interesting to try. Never really smelt wood to coal cus wood is important
I mean if you were going to buy coal y1 you might as well
||Desert|| is a great place to plant trees for lots of wood, ironically
Plant all your tree seeds and get forester at lvl 5 foraging if you havent yet
👍
Noice
chopping trees just takes a ton of stam
Upgrade your axe
on the topic of stam, what kinda food do i make anyway?
steel atm
Get a barn with cows and start making cheese
They give milk everyday which you can make into cheese that gives like over 100 energy
When they start giving large milk, you'll make gold quality cheese which is like 200 energy and 100hp
I THOUGHT HE CLOSES AT 5 FUCKKKKKK
Yeah he's a weird one
Nope
I thought so before too
Much worse if the community center is completed
btw, how many of these should i have anyway? i been planning to just get as many as i can
Oh wow
That's a good plan yeah
They're very good
Eventually you'll start making kegs over jars tho
Normally I balance both of those so I can get a decent profit while trying to make more
If you like mining, the wintery floors have dust sprites which often drop coal, you can also get coal just from mining at rocks sometimes
how long does the corn take to grow anyway?? still waiting on it
neat fact about jars is you can buy all of the ingredients for them from villagers' shops
yeah i farmed that earlier
2 weeks
wood + stone from robin, coal from clint
problem is i don't wanna blow all my resources on jars
not sure how useful they'll be in the winter
damn
If you plant a lot in fall, you can process the rest of your fall crops throughout winter
btw can i liek, do anything with this discarded gear?? unable to sell it
If you’re running out of trees to chop down on your farm, checking by the wizard’s tower and on the path to the mountains is a good place for spare trees while you’re waiting for trees to regrow on your farm too
oh yeah
You can harvest it again every 4 days once it grown
can sell at marlon's
Sell the boots, swords and rings you dont use at the adventurer's guild
You can sell it to Marlon in the adventures guild
I'd use genie boots tho, they're the 2nd best
my plan for winter is just like, fish a lot and farm the available stuff prolly
strat been working out so far
Make smoked fish. It's more profitable
i'm highkey scared to sell things at all, for all i know ima need them for a future quest or a trade or sum
i've just been bait-hunting tiger trouts ti'll 6pm, then going for super cucumbers for the rest of the day
it's gotten me like 18k per day if i'm lucky
awesome
Wow that's quite a lot from just fishing raw
but yeah, what kinda food should i have for the desert cave?
Your luck is great
there's a shot it's actually from 2 batches sometimes mb
but still good cash
Cheese/salad for healing, spicy eel and coffee for buffs (||can get both from the desert trader for rubies and diamonds||)
super cucumbers genuinely be moving like fuckin prime lebron though i swear
For earlier, salad is easy as you can get those from gus
Or cheese from cows like I was talking about earlier
i just eat my iridium quality common mushrooms
i highkey sold all of my rubies and diamonds, only got told i shouldn't like today
Oh yikes 😭
It happens
this the first time i had more then 5k for more then a day
relatable XD
No worry. Getting broke is key to make lots of money in future
(but thats because i got half a million in dried mushrooms in a chest)
Glowstone ring is pretty good. Slammer is essentially the best weapon you can get pre-prismatic shard
Could get the burglar's ring for extra monster loot, comes from killing 500 dust sprites
Great way to farm coal + get a good ring
i seriously hope it rains again dude
Since you said you dont know what to do with your day, that's a good option
Best to do that cus you can work to get the ring while also collect coals in process
the one time it rained i forgot to fish for these 2 idiots
Lol I didn't get walleye cus it never rain once in fall
Trading cart lady save me on that one
Fall should really have a guaranteed rain day, I've seen so many people not get a single rain day in fall
i legit got the rain, SAID i was going to fish
Maybe it's my luck was terrible that time cus after year 2 I got lots of rain in fall later
then proceeded ot kill dust sprites for the entire rainy day
so, how do i get salads?
Purchase from gus
the saloon
hollon i get 1k for just 5 jars of cranberries??
damn i been missing out not using these jars earlier on
Well 1 cranberry is 75g, and preserves jars are 2x + 50, so that's 200g per jar
So yeah
With artisan good profession, it will rank up the number more
oh yo i reached farming lvl8
finally i can get kegs 😭
how do y'all make a ton of kegs btw?
the oak resin looks annoying as all hell
Make an oak tapper farm
Plant lots of tree then put tappers
46?!
What?
the cranberries
for how long has this cave been a thing?????????
thats a lottt
is this the fruit bat or mushrooms thing??
Times some cleaning lol
forever
Since you reached 25k total earnings and demetrius came to your farm asking about mushrooms or fruit bats
that has always been there😭
that's so long ago 😭
Lol how long has that been left unchecked
oooh i thought she planted 46+ plants
what's this btw? a workshop or smth?
Greenhouse
greenhouse
Greenhouse
ohh
are you new to the game?
do i liek, sell these?? 😭 or do i use em for sum else
better wording how long have you been playing?
yeah lmao
A lot can be used for cc bundles, tree fruits are great gifts, the rest you could use for food
i've made like 20 playthroughs and quit in the first season for each one of em, this is my first actual run
you can go to peairs or sell them in the bin to get the money the next day
Some can be donate for community center quest
only the peaches and pomes
Relatable
i think oranges to
Nah, all fruit trees can be used for the artisan bundle
idk
You can check the traveling cart too, you might get lucky
Ah. The pomegranate save 1 for the bulletin board
yeah
ye that's what i need it for
Yup
fuck i forgot about it
I am on year three and i havent finished the community center😭
what am i meant to bring to the fair again?? 😭
How much left you need to complete?
Those acorns I guess
Tbf in my first playthrough i had the same
It’s my first playthrough, I’m going through the same thing so you’re not alone
you want a variety of different things and you want them to be higher quality/sell value if you can
like the fish tank and um the board and the ummm the one above the first one
!Grangecalc
Calculate your items needed for the Stardew Valley Fair’s Grange Display:
i'll just bring high quality stuff
Bring at least six different categories of items
so not a bunch of these?
No
Nope
All item need to be different
The different categories is more important than the sell value of an item. [[Grange Display]]
Like one food, one mineral, one artificat etc
You can win with iridium quality fish tho
would these count as fish??
yeah, but the fish itself has to be above a certain sell value
Your best quality fish (even if it's silver), your best quality crop, 1 or 2 gems, a cooked item that you've picked up somewhere, jelly/ wine/ pickles
Where are your quality items?
do you think i keep my fish or something, i sell them immediately 💔
Rare fish investment…..
I think last time I won the fair I just had some iridium chubs and iridium bar
obviously used already
I wouldn’t know. You aren’t exactly sharing what you’re bringing.
here's my chests idk lmao
mb mb, thought it was obvious i'm broke in terms of high quality items since i said it 😭
my fishes got me 100 points, instead my carefully curated display got me 95 lol
both won but damn
i don't really have any fish on hand
Looks like you did have something to put on grange
can you be a lil more specific? 
Iridium bar, bomb, gold pumpkin, gold purple mushroom, chocolate cake, sea jelly, battery, aquamarine, gold cranberry
Willy would be pissed
That's what I would take if those were my chests in this situation
why would i use an iridium bar?? what does this event even give me, i'm not sure
you can fish before the fair (or you can do something like my pic 2), both won
1st year gives you stardrop, ticket for the ticket machine
Also you get the items back
how long do i have to submit?
You don't lose them
oh
you only submit it during the event, which u can enter anytime before 1.50pm
man i thought i lose the items
Gold purple mushroom, gold pumpkin, ruby, iridium bar, gold cranberry, maki roll, sea jelly, and then the rest doesn’t matter try and just do whatever is your highest selling
No. After the mayor judges your box and gives you a rating you can take the stuff back. If you forget to take them back, you can find the items in the lost and found in the mayor's house afterwards
Just put iridium quality fishes there
someone should make a mod where Lewis steals all your shit bahaha
this'll do idk
Then a second mod wear we can beat Lewis
wear 🥀
all sold
I have a head canon that Lewis and Linus are brothers and Linus couldn't deal with the richy-silver spoon fed life anymore which is why he chooses the lifestyle he does
Gonna put his special shorts there in return

You need 1 more item, you need 9!
yeah i'll take a solar
As long as all of it are different, you should be fine
You have play it's mini game there?
what?
The festival has some number of mini games that can also get tokens
LOL
That'll prolly do fine
you ignored like half of what I said
i don't think i did?? 😭
i brought the golden stuff like you asked
sea jelly erm
Oh okay this is better
Sorry the other looked different hehe
it was the only fishing thing I could find in their chest
idk about solar essence either but fingers crossed 🤞
Not sure if it work but it's better than put grass there lol
damn
my hoarder self cannot relate XD
oh, but I just realized I sent seven categories so it won’t matter
ur pfp so cute. how did u do it
Infinitely
Thank u sm! Me and a few others made it ( @knotty oxide @fossil flare @last fulcrum ) but I can link a site where u can make something similar for free 
pls do
!pfp
Hehe
ty
Ofc! I linked the other three artists in case you wanted to commission as well
Oooh that's a interesting app
I’ll be using that heheh
Definitely gonna try that later
oh no tnx i can draw too but never tried pixel art
i’m the opposite I love pixel art, but I can’t draw
i recently bought graphic tablet to draw
the star piece is 2k right?
maybe you can practice making Stardew stuff!
ohh its okk
yeaass its nice
100% worth to do this yeah?
you could AFK there and the day won’t pass
Yes
Yes
so what i'm hearing is i can just gamble
goddamnit
i always try the green in this haha xd
I just realised that I’m missing that stardrop in my current save cuz I haven’t been to that festival the two times it’s been on already
You're not gonna get far betting on Orange
you should always bet on green cause it’s rigged to green
oh damn
sorry, should’ve mentioned that earlier hah
so, which minigame do you reckon i should go for?
like, which one has a higher profit when it comes to stars
Absolutely
The wheel is by far the easiest. But the fishing one is pretty good for the amount of points it gives you
I like the fishing
i need stars to use the wheel 
highkey bet all i have on orange
Yeah fishing is easier
yeah, don’t bet everything
let’s go gambling
fr though i think optimally you want to bet like 61% on green
did ur grange finish judging yet?
u will get some tokens from there
Failed a 50/50, skill issue fr (jkjk)
holy shit fishing is insane
Not a 50/50 tho
Yeah it’s pretty good
don't think so
Yup!
I read the messages after that, was saying it as a joke.
i'm getting 1k and betting it all on green
Talk to 
The festival will not end if you speak to him
also, if you go to the Hammer guy and you get the weakest and strongest jackhammer score then you get two free tokens.
these two singular tokens have carried me before HAHA don’t underestimate the power of gambling
I was surprised that I still get a token with unbelievably low score lol
I love it ahah
I think I was like 9 off my goal amount last time and just got 9 max power hammers instead of playing another minigame
when I did it the first time I was like so confused
I’ve gotten strong, never weak
I love this weak dialogue line more than the strong line
Both inspiring and insulting while hand out the prize
W
And it's just one
LET IT RIDE (bet 1k)
Which color?
1 star token is so dumb
green
Fortune teller is my another favorite part of the festival
@north heart 
Gambling
Good choice
LET IT RIDE
(It’s biased to green)
I literally bet these two star tokens until I got 8000
FUCKKKKKK
LOL
(i bet 2k)
Loll that’s awesome
fuck it i'll gamble this 382 to 2k
My university being orange color has lost me so many star tokens
I told bro bet half and he bet double. he’s living the dangerous life 
Welp back to fishing
The devil on your shoulder /j
Umm if u have one idk
panics
check w/ lewis to see if u get more tokens to bet
I think the grange display is one time prize
HELL YEAH
was highkey hoping the stars weren't capped
i just bet 5k, i woulda gone to like 14k lmao
awesome i bought the entire shop out
First time seeing that many token prize lol
ima be real i was aiming for 100k
i REALLY wanted to go silent for like 5 minutes and then send a ss of 100k stars
yeah it is
i just meant if they haven't checked w/ him yet
they should
(cos they've been betting from tokens from fishing? i think
is that it? just 500 stars?
since you're second place, yeah
Yah
i'm betting 5k on orange hold on
Not bad actually
i highkey clicked green out of instinct, still won tho 🙏
Curious who exactly won 1st place tho
Let’s go gambling! /j

Who do u think
dude i wish the stars were uncapped
prolly the fatass cheese wheel person
i had a whole totem and some cool minerals how'd i lose to food dude 💔
Nah Lewis isn’t so partial to Marnie
Dw, you can gamble all you want later with a quest soon 
Wish that could be obtained in normal gameplay
so, is that it?
Yep!
Ugh
prolly bribed the mayor
Woo nice
Bahahahah
Made it to summer day 3 on new save. Kinda missing my old farm so time to check it out
What a luck
Working on getting perfection in this save, is there a way to keep track of which craftables you've already made?
bitchass pierre the only one with a custom box, has a whole name on it
Advanced crafting information in the settings. Don’t know why it’s turned off by default.
I don’t know why it’s even a setting to begin with to be honest
I didn’t even notice the name lmao
LMAO
you can beat him with 9 iridium chubs
Lol that's the reason I always try to put my best items for the grange out of spite
Mayor Lewis just LOVES his fish /s
the house always wins smh
Not the serious indicator loll
I wonder what Caroline is gonna say about it since you didn’t win first place
does first place give anything special?
!Tone sarcasm, not serious, hehe
Tone indicators can be placed at the end of a message to indicate your intended tone. You may see them used in chat, and are welcome (but never required) to use them yourself!
Some common tone indicators:
/gen or /g = genuine
/j = joking
/hj = half-joking
/lh = light-hearted
/s = sarcastic
/srs = serious
/t = teasing
/p = platonic
/ref = reference
/pos = positive
/nm = not mean
1000 coins and Pierre gets mad as fuck
Yup
The coins is whatever tho

It's satisfying
only good thing about pierre is his daughter 
And Caroline just says the same default dialogue like nothing happened
And wife 
O Ok. It’s different if you win though.
Eh really? Need to win again next time then
Mhm 
Yes do it
on god i had 4 oak resin where did 2 go
did you craft fertilizer or any kegs
not yet
Accidentally sold the other two?
i was about to make kegs
Not sure 
nah, sold nun yesterday
Chest maybe?
oh i'm fucking stupid nvm
Lol
i had to reset the day once so i forgot to reharvest 2 of them
oh yeah, you reset the day ha ha


shoulder?
