Apparently melons can also do that. Not sure what else.

I'm gonna say pumpkins and cabbage probably can too.

Is it random when crops don't all sprout at the same time, or have different harvest times? I mean in Harvest Moon, it could be due to fertilizer, but there isn't any in Stardew Valley, as far as I know.

There is fertilizer later. But the growing speed seems to have some level of randomization. It seems to be plus or minus a day from an average grow time.

Northeast, up by the mine. He's usually hanging out near the lake there.

people with coal problems, if you turn in the Construction Bundle in the community center you get a charcoal kiln which lets you make coal out of 20 wood. I just basically live in the mine though so coal hasn't been a huge issue for me. :shrug:

Aaaah this game is so stressful. I can barely go out and do anything before it's turning to night, just exploring a few areas wastes the entire day. I even have to make a mad dash to NPCs in their homes to avoid wasting time, just going into their houses wastes like 10-20 minutes. :aaa: This is supposed to be a relaxing game. Is there a timesaving thing I'm missing?

You're not really able to do everything each day. Tend to the farm before 9am and then pick one thing to do that day instead of running about.


If you plant a rare seed in fall, does it have to be Day 1? Or any day?

Also how the heck do you mill wheat?



I had a meteorite crash in my backyard, but I ain't got a manly enough pickaxe to deal with it. I must know what lies inside.

And as a tip, making Mayo from small eggs is pretty quick and turns them from 25 gold each to 100 gold each. I will have a Mayo Empire.

I am also the mayoman. It's a good life, but I wish mayonnaise makers didn't take ~4 ingame hours.

I think your foraging skill comes into it since there's food boosters for it. Also if you check the fortune teller on TV she'll tell you if it's your lucky day or not.

Should I be doing something like upgrading my sword before trying to go deeper into the mine? I stopped at level like 15 or whenever you first see the crab enemies because those and slimes take like 10 hits to kill and I assumed I was going too deep too fast

You can make it pretty far with just the first sword if you're careful, but the adventurers store sells better swords too. Also those crab enemies, you can hit the rock they hide under with a pickaxe a few times and break it and then they become pretty harmless.

how do you people have time to go into the mines and get poo poo. I have like 150 active crops up right now, and even with the bronze watering can it takes me forever to get it done and I use up most of my stamina before eating all the eggs I get to recover.

You need the fiberglass rod. When you have it, get the bait on your cursor and then right-click the rod.
