Omg I thought about trying this with my iron bucket, but after 4 scoops the water level barely even budged, so I knew it would take WAY too long. Thanks for trying it anyway. Lol
No, the easier way is you can just ship 1 coal to the bin, and the general store will sell it the next day. It's not true that it's hard to get coal in the game.
I like that you can collect the chests every time, but I wish there was a way to remove the lakes. Maybe someday in an update. Thank you for this video, now I can stop trying to remove the lake 😅
I was today years old when I found out you could hammer the small pools to remove them after draining. The villagers say they will go away on their own after a few days (actually overnight), but I didn't know you could expedite this.
Thanks for the video! I emptied the area 2 pond today and wondered why the pump wasn’t working after it filed back up. Also never realized you can hit the smaller ponds with the hammer to get rid of it. Ive been emptying them and waiting for the next day for then to go away
your videos are so helpful, I recently started pioneers of Olive town (my first SOS game as I'm a big Stardew fan and thought this would be fun, which I'm loving it so yes it was) and I had the message come up about using the pumps to purify the water but the game didn't tell me how to make them at all and I didn't have the crafting recipe either so I've been confused bout them. now I know you unlock the recipe levelling up the skill (which I didn't realize draining those large puddles with the chests was a skill)
Yeah I was hoping to remove the one on the second area 🤣🤣 Well, I actually hoped to replace one of my animal stalls where the empty pond will be then. But that's fine this way too 🌞🌞 Thank you for this video 🤗🤗
Not being able to remove them is a massive dealbreaker for me with this game. I know it probably seems stupid to people but, they are so obnoxious, I can't plan my farm the way I want to, they're just right in the middle of everything.
I don't mind having to have them. I just wish we could move them. The one in area 3 particularly bothers me when trying to lay down an efficient path to the mine.
Oh, you unlock the pump at lv 5 bucket skill? When I found area 2, I didn't have my skill that high, and I just used the bucket to drain the lake. Right after I drained it, I unlocked the pump recipe. So I thought that they intended for you to drain the lake with a bucket to unlock the pump recipe. xD
I had a big stockpile of coal for the longest time and never knew what to do with it so eventually sold it... now that I know what it’s for it is damn near impossible to find :(
@@JoshGamingGarden maybe I just haven't waited long enough but I've waited about a month in game and the pond is still clear but I emptied it out and let it fill with rain water and it's been clear blue still. Have you tried it?
You can process jewels in the jewel maker and they're quite valuable when you sell them! Especially diamond, you can sell for 10k! Some can be used for crafting recipes such as the giant jewel maker and there is also a wedding dress, but unless you really want to save for these, they're safe to sell!
This question isn’t related to the big ponds, but to the smaller ponds (seen at 7:27) that you can easily use your bucket to remove water from. It’s been in-game weeks - maybe even one season - since the hole has been there, and I am unable to hammer the hole away. It has yet to fill back up with water. Is this a glitch? Has this happened to anyone? Is it possible for me to get rid of the hole?
I'm afraid that sounds like a glitch. 😭 Usually they would go away on their own, or by hammering them. Not sure what to do... Have you tried to see if you could place a building or something on top to make it disappear? I don't think it would work, but might be worth a try.
Btw god... i hate that appraisal girls voice... makes me cringe everytime i hear it & it sounds just as worst in english. I turn the sound down when i have a lot of bags for appraisal. It sort of reminds me of valley girl voice but 10 times worst. I mean i'm not knocking the style of voice tho, as i sometimes get that way when im in a good mood lol. I'd like to think its not as bad as that..
Honestly it drives me crazy that Animal Crossing has had ways to check all fossils at once for ages and this game you have to click 1 at a time? I love this game but that’s inexcusable in this day and age. All that does is waste way too much of my time.
What platform are you playing this on? Seems like the game has serious trouble loading in new areas. It's very choppy. Was thinking of getting this for the Switch, but if it's this laggy, I may have to pass on this one. My Time At Portia has soured me to these types of games on the Switch unfortunately... Looks like it would be fun though.
It's only available for the Switch at the moment. 😔 However the developers have announced plans to work on this and hopefully performance should get better in the coming months!
Why is your pond so big? , you know what they say about guys who have ponds that big lol ( sorry i had to say that!😂) See i deffo would have noticed if there was a pond that big on my third level🤔.
This heavily has the look and feel of a mobile game. With those rows of machines and objects with their slowly filling status bar to indicate progress is dictated by excessive time wasting. I havent played the game but that looks extremely offputting to me.
You could use pumps.. And then there's me who just emptied the pond on the second area with the bucket.
omg haha, I wanted to try with the bucket but I don't have that patience! How long did it take you?
@@JoshGamingGarden It only took me 3 days besides doing nothing but watering my crops. It's probably still not the most efficient thing to do. 😅
Omg I thought about trying this with my iron bucket, but after 4 scoops the water level barely even budged, so I knew it would take WAY too long. Thanks for trying it anyway. Lol
I’m glad someone tried, I wanted to but was too lazy once I saw it barely move 😂
i did this when i got my gold bucket, lol. was faster than the 1 pump i put down
Coal can be bought for super cheap from the big sprite man in sprite field. You can get more than enough to power what you need.
No, the easier way is you can just ship 1 coal to the bin, and the general store will sell it the next day. It's not true that it's hard to get coal in the game.
I like that you can collect the chests every time, but I wish there was a way to remove the lakes. Maybe someday in an update.
Thank you for this video, now I can stop trying to remove the lake 😅
It should be a reward for completing the museum 😞
I was today years old when I found out you could hammer the small pools to remove them after draining. The villagers say they will go away on their own after a few days (actually overnight), but I didn't know you could expedite this.
Ponds contains sometimes rare sprarkling fish. Mostly crawfish, giant shrimp prawns, dace, and yellow perch.
I get 6 sparkling fish on a single sit on the river between area 1 and 2, ditch the pond
Thanks for the video! I emptied the area 2 pond today and wondered why the pump wasn’t working after it filed back up. Also never realized you can hit the smaller ponds with the hammer to get rid of it. Ive been emptying them and waiting for the next day for then to go away
I'm just here looking at your farm taking notes
your videos are so helpful, I recently started pioneers of Olive town (my first SOS game as I'm a big Stardew fan and thought this would be fun, which I'm loving it so yes it was) and I had the message come up about using the pumps to purify the water but the game didn't tell me how to make them at all and I didn't have the crafting recipe either so I've been confused bout them. now I know you unlock the recipe levelling up the skill (which I didn't realize draining those large puddles with the chests was a skill)
You can fish at the ponds in your farm. I caught 9stars crawfish. The level of fishes varies.
True! You can even fish in the small puddles!
Eels, too.
Yeah I was hoping to remove the one on the second area 🤣🤣 Well, I actually hoped to replace one of my animal stalls where the empty pond will be then. But that's fine this way too 🌞🌞 Thank you for this video 🤗🤗
Thank you! Yeah I really wish we could either remove or move them!
Hmm that kinda sucks. The ponds are in my way. Maybe in an update we will be able to remove them.
Just noticed my boi Jack standing there in his DOG costume and I screamed with laughter omg XD.
Really liking these tips. I’m almost done with the big pond so looking forward to that.
LOL I can't haha you put a pump on that puddle XD Thanks for trying to see what happens with the ponds for almost a month :)
Not being able to remove them is a massive dealbreaker for me with this game. I know it probably seems stupid to people but, they are so obnoxious, I can't plan my farm the way I want to, they're just right in the middle of everything.
Yes it's such a shame we can't remove them, or at least keep them clean permanently. You're not the only one :(
I don't mind having to have them. I just wish we could move them. The one in area 3 particularly bothers me when trying to lay down an efficient path to the mine.
i emptied all the ponds out with the bucket XD including the giant one. was my first time playing and i just kinda felt like it.
It's pretty sad how you can't remove them cause they take so much space 😔
you can also get the coal from the sprite shop for 10 pts(?)
It is sad. 😥 And you're right, you can get coal from the sprite shop as well!
I love how you said: “ Pioneers of Olive Town.”
Honestly I just want to make them disappear. They take a big part of the farm I could use ;-;
I didn't know how to do it when I first started so I spent 3 days doing it with the bucket in the third area
Oh, you unlock the pump at lv 5 bucket skill?
When I found area 2, I didn't have my skill that high, and I just used the bucket to drain the lake. Right after I drained it, I unlocked the pump recipe. So I thought that they intended for you to drain the lake with a bucket to unlock the pump recipe. xD
Jeeze. How long did that take?
@@OminousSoul Like maybe 3 in game days? And a bunch of food.
I had a big stockpile of coal for the longest time and never knew what to do with it so eventually sold it... now that I know what it’s for it is damn near impossible to find :(
I think the pounds is there to help if you stop all the little holes appearing with chest
Thank you for the video! I was wondering if you could remove the little ponds!
You can also fish in the ponds. and even the puddles
The elder sprite will sell coal for the coins you get from them, tbh I don't like the large ponds I wish I could get rid of them.
I'm not sure if you figured it out already but you can actually keep the waters with clean water
how? :o
@@JoshGamingGarden maybe I just haven't waited long enough but I've waited about a month in game and the pond is still clear but I emptied it out and let it fill with rain water and it's been clear blue still. Have you tried it?
The largest two I used my bucket to Finnish emptying. When they have about 1/5 left. Also maxed my bucket skill.
Omg gj I'm not even close ugh
I didn't know coal was rare im glad I have kept all of them. But I'll definitely sell one just in case. What are jewels like diamond and the pink one?
You can process jewels in the jewel maker and they're quite valuable when you sell them! Especially diamond, you can sell for 10k! Some can be used for crafting recipes such as the giant jewel maker and there is also a wedding dress, but unless you really want to save for these, they're safe to sell!
My eyes widen when I saw that gaint bird.
Can you take the pumps off after?
Yes you can!
Don't underestimate a man with a bucket and determination
Are the ponds can be close after suction pump?
Shame they didnt make voiceover. Look at My time at Portia
Great coverage
I cleared both lakes in both areas. The lake in Area 3 never refills back, and how to get to the special lake area?
You can actually fish in the pond while the water is clear
You can also fish in it while it's not clear. 😄 Not quite sure if it has different fish though.
@@JoshGamingGarden...wow I guess we all learn a lot today with you... I actually got higher quality fish on it than the sea lol 😆
Great video! How do I get a bucket? I am at day 10 but I don't have a bucket..
Clemens will bring it to you after your first rainy day! It can take a while if you're not lucky with the weather. 😅
Omg I got my bucket on the 2nd day did u get it yet
"Yaaaah" very much better
Bah. I was hoping to use the spot where the ancient lake was for farming.
Did you try hammering out the mid size ponds?
You cant. 😥
@@JoshGamingGarden whaaat so even after you drain them the space remains?!
@@JoshGamingGarden that is frustrating. Wouldn't be so bad if it would stay clean, but returning to dirty is annoying
Wow thanks for the videos hahah must take you forever but thanks
Josh is it just me or your audio is getting better?
Wait is that a dog or a wolf? You can ride the dogs????
Man I wish I had the patience to make my farm look so neat but Im waaaay too lazy
Haha it's a wolf, even though it looks and sounds like a dog!
Little sad that you cant simple use the charcoal, what you can create by yourself.

Haha I somewhat like the voice. But yeah it can get on your nerves when you have 20 bags to get appraised. 😆
I hate her voice and i also hate Damon voice xD I lost my interest on him mostly because of his ugly "voice"
Honestly it drives me crazy that Animal Crossing has had ways to check all fossils at once for ages and this game you have to click 1 at a time? I love this game but that’s inexcusable in this day and age. All that does is waste way too much of my time.
I find that Reina's voice is more tolerable than in the english version. I really hate her english voice and her personality...or lack thereof
What do I do with the Raw White Opal…?
I wanna know how you get to ride a freaking giant wolf O.o
Heyy lol, im going to double check right now but i don't remember a pond in my third area🤔
You should have the same one. 😅
I really want to remove it but when i do fishing there i got a high value fishes
How in the heccaroni are you riding a wolf is my question
You can buy it from thr shrine above townhall. You have to unlock the sprite goddess lady
Great tip video!
So it takes like a month to get treasure
It's too bad you can't pick up the empty ponds and move them like most other things in the game.
I felt bad that I bought a heap of the coal from the store.
Can u remove the small water ponds?
How can I remove these little ponds?

I still don't have the option to create coal when do I unlock this?
Should be when area 2 unlock right ?
I forgot but i think i unlock the craft very early.
For me it unlocked when I got my first coal in the second mine. Then I was able to craft the lump of coal. Same with the glass
Why is your pond so big? , you know what they say about guys who have ponds that big lol ( sorry i had to say that!😂)
See i deffo would have noticed if there was a pond that big on my third level🤔.
I believe when you clear one of the ponds, the sprites open a new area for you with that third pond.
@@badbotfelipe Oopsie.. yeah i noticed it lol. Im such a dip..
How to get raw white opal?
You can get white opal in the first mine!
I'll save you nine minutes and thirty-two seconds
No
This heavily has the look and feel of a mobile game. With those rows of machines and objects with their slowly filling status bar to indicate progress is dictated by excessive time wasting. I havent played the game but that looks extremely offputting to me.
