Hello yes I heard there was a lovely trainwreck here and...

My pet theory is that Harvey has a mustache because someone told him facial hair would make him look older. He has not gotten a second opinion more recently.

On my last playthrough, I got a storm in the middle of the season and got a lightning strike on one of my crops. It was the free starfruit you get from the museum. I was very annoyed.

Are you going to plant grass in front of the chicken coop at some point? Or is that not actually a plantable thing?

You can buy plantable grass, yeah. There's just plenty of it on the farm when you start off, so it's kind of a waste of money unless you clear-cut your farm before you get a silo and animals.

There's a way to get around it, but you're not likely to have it unlocked before the first thunderstorm hits.

Lightning's also more likely to hit trees than crops if the wiki's to be believed, so don't clear-cut your farm I guess.

Also, yeah, the Slimepedia entry for each slime does tell you what their plorts are used for. My personal favourite are Puddle plorts, which are "used to create an absurdly expensive brand of bottled drinking water that is sought after by the elite back on Earth".

The enemy of my enemy is my enemy.
The Ancient Water springs are designed where you can get to 3-4 of the revival plants. You might need the full time to get one but they're spaced as such that you can get every one of them. The big puzzle is finding the right spring for the right set of flowers since the Tangle Plort one is pretty devious. It's kind of the training wheels for the platforming required to get some of those treasure pods.

Mosaic and Tangle Plorts are always good money makers. Even if you absolutely crash their prices they're still going to be worth 30-40 or so slimebux per plort.

i think it's a combination of both? once you reach the glass desert and start going into it, reading the hobson notes, it seems like the final stretch of casey letters starts picking up even if it's been a while since you've had any. there might be some triggers in the slime key doors and the like that will enable more letters to show up. it's all meant to roughly culminate in the player finding that last point out at the end and getting the final messages.

i think i first found that final spot when it was night and the giant slime-faced moon took up like half the screen. it looked pretty great.

Not very expensive at all. I stock up on them pretty soon. The kegs cost oak resin though, so those take some time.

If you sell more than 15 of any non-gold plort the market forces the price to drop by half the next day until it hits the floor for that variety.

It is technically possible to crash the market on gold plorts but you have to sell upwards of 500 at once.
