    Tip 7: Sure, you don't need silos for the spring, summer and fall, but unless you want to fund Marnie's retirement you need one for the winter, or several if you plan to have lots of animals, and it's a good idea to keep lots of grass, other than what's there for the animals to eat, around to periodically mow down to fill the silos.

  • @bluevervain8317

    Cool little things I discovered that I haven’t seen mentioned:
    - There are hidden paths/shortcuts through the trees at the bottom of screen in Secret Woods and on the left hand side of the Forest Farm map.
    - You can make oil for cooking by putting corn or sunflower in the oil press.
    - Tea saplings can be used as permanent fences. To get the blueprint, get Caroline to 2 hearts and then visit her greenhouse (the door at the back of her kitchen). She’ll mail it to you the following day.
    - The saloon’s dish of the day is always a villager favorite. Check often for meals that are rare/hard to make (e.g. calamari for Pierre) and you can stock up for when birthdays roll around.

      This is an excellent tip! I've played several hundred hours of Stardew Valley but never noticed this. I buy plenty of the regular items for villager gifts, but I never realized the special item was always a fave too! Definitely keeping this in mind for the next time I play!

  • @justthisguy2976
    @justthisguy2976 2 роки тому +36

    A silo is not a particularly big investment early game and allowing the player to harvest extra hay, or to build up reserves for winter, is a good idea.
    Have your animals eat grass every day, but also build a silo.

    • @jadenfoxx9159
      @jadenfoxx9159 2 роки тому +3

      Honestly, from now on, I'll only ever build a single silo and use a chest to store any hay I do chop down. Much cheaper way of doing things so makes a lot more sense. Now I can use those 5 copper bars for something else that will make more money.

    After multiple farms, community center completions, and even a jojamart run, I *finally* learned that you can buy multiples of items from the traveling cart lady. Just buy something, "x" out of the purchase menu, then open it up again. Super useful if she has an early game apple, pomegranate, or pufferfish.

    Just so no one gets any misinformation, fruit trees increase the star quality of their fruits by one every year. Unless it's different for the greenhouse (which took a full year to get my fruit to silver quality) it should take three years before it's iridium quality fruit, not two.

    Bonus tip: Leave a chest in the mines. When you go mining, leave your unnecessary tools - like your scythe, hoe, axe, fishing rod, even watering can if you forgot to leave it at home. Don't be afraid to leave certain valuables in the chest if you have to prioritize other items; you can always come back later to pick them up!
    Remember; your inventory is never truly full as long as you have access to 50 wood in the area.

    Tea saplings are easy to make; 2 wild seeds, 5 fiber, 5 wood and they sell for 500 gold a piece. You just have to get Caroline to 2 hearts and then walk back into her secret sun room, past their kitchen, and she send you the recipe the next day. You can make bank as early as day 15, take about that long to get 2 hearts with the help of gold star Daffodils and Parsnips.

    on Tip 24, an additional method is to unlock linus's quest at the special orders board where you clear 20 pieces of trash from fishing. He will give you a fiber seeds recipe, this grows across ALL seasons including winter. And because they cross seasons you ALSO get to keep your fertilizer. So you plant them and let them grow (7 days), and on the first you harvest them, you now have tilled, watered and fertilized soil ready to go for planting.

    Here’s a random way for you to get some money and mess with the villagers for stardew starters: when you get the mail about the mayor’s shorts, take your time getting to 2 hearts with marnie you don’t want to rush your first run, and when you do get the shorts put the shorts away until the sdv fair, because when you put the shorts on the thing and tell Lewis you’re ready he’ll see it and give you a a fair amount of money, then you can do what ever you want with them. you can combine them with gold in Emily’s sewing machine if you have enough hearts with her and then you’ll be able to make them wearable to mess with Lewis, you can wait until the next luau to mess with him A LOT, or return them, or even wait until you get Lewis as your secret gift giver etc

    Tip 2: Not quite the right thing to do in my book. You SHOULD build a silo first, stock up hay until it's full, THEN take animals.
    Let them eat the grass until you reach winter. Then, on winter, you feed them with hay from the silo.
    You don't need to mow all the grass to fill the silo all the way in one go: you can free some space, gather some hay, then let the grass regrow: it's fast, you'll never run out if you do things gradually.

    Even better than planting your Sp/Su/Fa/Wi seeds: Get 2 starts with Caroline, visit her in her drug den and learn to craft tea saplings. 2 seasonal seeds (+5 fiber +5 wood) gives you a sapling you can sell for 500 gold. If you're fast, this can be done before the Egg Festival, but even if not, dutiful foragers can make buckets of g for hardly any effort (compare that to sowing those seeds, watering them and harvesting).
    This gets even better starting Fall 2 of Year 1. If you get the "Community Cleanup" quest from the board, you can craft fibre seeds, a crop that doesn't need water and grows in winter. You get ludicrous amounts of fibre out of it. Now you can even purchase the wood for the tea saplings and you still make a massive profit off them.

      @DrZaius3141 2 роки тому

      @KIRRA WIDJAJA It's a special order's quest, so starting on fall 2 of year 1 and every monday after that, you have 2 options on the board south of Lewis' mansion. There are 14 quests that are possible (fewer in winter), some of them can't repeat, so once you do them they don't pop up anymore.
      In other words, the probability that you get community cleanup within 7 weeks (even 8 weeks would be enough so you can plant the fiber on winter 22) is almost 90%. Unfortunately, it can't be guaranteed, but as long as you accept and complete the unrepeatable quests (see wiki for that), you have a solid chance.

    That might be true on PC, but it's not true on console. It takes fruit trees multiple years to reach iridium levels on the console version.

    RE: Not building Silos ... uh... you still need hay for when it rains, and it's nice to get free hay by building a silo. Also, you need enough silos for 28 days worth of Winter hay. For one full Deluxe Barn, and one full Coop, you need just over two silos. You could build 3 or you could build 2 and stick some hay in a chest. But if you have no silos, you'll have to buy hay anytime it rains or winter arrives because animals will not graze in the rain or winter and thus won't produce anything which means you will lose lots of money. Silos are only 3x3, stick them in some far corner of the farm.

    @Seriously_Unserious 2 роки тому +85

    In general, some good tips, however I'll correct you on the "Don't get a silo" part. You NEED a silo, or your animals will starve all winter. In the winter, everything's covered in snow and there's NO GRASS outdoors for them to eat, I repeat NO GRASS. plus the animals won't go outside in the winter and if you trap them outside, they'll hate you and stop producing. You NEED the silo as that's the ONLY way to store animal feed for the winter, when there is NO GRASS for them to eat. Also, you need to feed them during the other 3 seasons on rainy days, as the animals won't want to go outside and therefore can't eat the grass growing outside, so you'll have to feed them. You NEED a silo to feed them for the entire winter and during rainy days in the other seasons. On non-rainy days, they'll happily go outside and eat grass if they can.

      @@mattstanislen3165 Assuming they'll eat it, which I didn't know, is that really more economical? Grass doesn't spread if planted inside, so you'd have to keep planting. But grass starters cost 100g, whereas hay only costs 50. You could craft the starters, but at 10 fiber per that will add up really quickly since again, it won't spread.
      Also animals only eat hay anyway if they couldn't find grass that day, so the whole point of not getting a silo in the first place doesn't make much sense. Seriously, I've got a full barn and coop for 24 animals, and the hay count on my silos doesn't go down at all while there's still grass outside (except if it's a rainy day of course).

    Technically, you can upgrade the watering can on Day 27 on Sunny Spring and even on Summer and Fall, provided that you don't plant cross season plants. Because on Day 28, there is no point to watering, because the next day, those plants will die anyway. It's an old Harvest Moon trick I learned a while back.

    Actual protip for early game food. Field snacks are abysmally expensive. Save those seeds to grow trees for wood after year 1 when Robin DRASTICALLY increases the price of wood and stone.
    Instead, befriend Linus who will send you the recipe for Sashimi. This heals a moderate amount (by later standards. Early on it's a great deal.) and can be made with only a single fish. Literally any fish works. This also functions as a decent way to increase the value of your catches if you're hard on cash.

    That backpack thing is only really true if you don't then manage to haul more items, thus earning more than 2,000 extra gold by having those slots available. Say I was mining and had to go all the way back home to deposit loot. If I had more slots, I would be carrying more stuff back, and thus making more money, and so, as long as I made more than 2,000 total, I'd have earned a profit and thus buying the backpack is actually better than not.

      @@ems2911 That's 13 days of one row of items. Say it takes 6 days to scrape up 2k since you've sold the Parsnips and bought potatoes instead. You buy the pack, then you have 6 days to make that doubled inventory worth it. Considering how much cash you can make from fishing since time stops whilst you are reeling in a fish in SP, and the fact that the Fish Shop shuts at 5pm but you can reasonably fish until about midnight before running back, longer if you fish at the lake instead of the ocean, means you have 7 whole hours of fishing you can do without being able to sell them. That is usually plenty of time to fill up most if not all of those slots with different fish.
      As such, in the time between buying the bag and the Spring Festival, as long as you are good, you could catch a lot of fish and sell them, and probably make more money than you would have if you didn't have the backpack, simply because you can carry extra fish, since the different rarities don't stack, each fish species could take up 3 slots, that quickly eats through a bar of inventory, especially if you haven't put away tools and foraged items.

    Tip 7, is correct only at the start of the game, and unless you want to spend extra money when it rains or tons of money during winter, you will probably want a silo to store tons of extra hay, I would recommend about 1 silo per 8 animals. But I am still pretty new to the game.

    I always try to get a couple silos down as soon as I can so that when I am clearing land for crops, the potential hay doesn't go to waste.. I also don't cut grass unless I need to clear land for something else.. I do like to have a small area of my farm designated for wild grass to harvest every once in a while for more hay.. Hay is necessary to keeping your critters happy during winter since all the grass has died out.. I put my silos in a vertical line along the western edge of the basic/default map by Grandpa's Shrine.. And yes, I prefer the basic/default map because you get the most uninterrupted space to use for crops and such.. I like my massive fields of 480 crops! If I don't get pigs, I can mirror it for 960 crops!

    Usually, by the end of the first year, I've unlocked the ability to craft (or managed to find) a rain totem. Use it on Winter 28 to make it MUCH easier to plant on Spring 1, ESPECIALLY if you've got a very large farm. All you have to do is clear the debris, hoe the ground, add any fertilizers, and plant your seeds. Not having to water and having no hoed ground due to the season change to allow sprinklers to work, helps IMMENSELY! What used to take rigorous timing to ensure maximum efficiency so as to make sure every tile was filled now is not nearly as bad.

    Here's a weird little thing I don't see a lot of people talk about, the timing for using tools.
    If you click at the right moment just at the end of your swing/pour, usually right when you hear the tool sound, you skip the awkward pause at the end of each use.
    It's a very small time save and requires fairly good timing but I find it helps when doing things like mass cutting trees or planting/watering before tool upgrades. It's not as fast as animation cancelling but you don't need any macro scripts, which I assume also means it could be useful for console players.
