23 NEW Tips & Tricks I STOLE From Pro Stardew Valley Players 

As someone with memory issues and ADHD, I'm just glad they added text signs

Green rain also promoted the growth of your trees, so if you plant, let's say, half a farm of trees, the next day about 90% of those seeds will have turned into a full grown tree. Great for a fast influx of wood without having to buy it.

Thank you for including both of my tips! The video is great as always, and I'm glad I could be a part of it!

Don’t trash you frog eggs!! You can put them in your aquariums, there are several different colors too

Added raisin protip. If you're converting to a ancient fruit farm for the endgame, remember that you only need raisins when the Junimos are working. This means you only need 9-10 raisins per Junimo Hut per year.

dont forget that u can also use the text signs in front of your crop fields to show how many farmable tiles are there!! this saves me so much time and stress from having to do mental math at the beginning of every season lol

Pro tip: If you need extra space in your inventory you can place your pan on your head 😉

fun fact: the portal that opens in the wizard's basement actually leads to Terraria :) and the Meowmere sword that you get is actually a nod to one of the best from that game! what a cool easter egg!

Ancient Dolls only sell for 60g (or 180g with the treasure book), but can infinitely be turned into terraria pylons that sell for 500g. Yes you do have to sit thru the 3 second bone dragon spawning animation though, i think it does take in-game time

Here are some tips, for early, mid-game and anytime. Early-game: -Until you get the 2nd backpack upgrade, always keep a chest near your favorite fishing spot (best one is mountain lake, and any river while its raining for catfish), you will run out of storage VERY QUICK! Mid-game: -At the start of any season, always buy at least a couple of every seeds (except flowers), the raccoon may ask for it which would require you to go through the whole process of having to grow it. He can ask for 5 of the best regrowable crop of the current season for the 2nd request, and can be absolutely any crop for the 4th. -If you also need some crab pot fish for the raccoon, put the first one you get of that crab pot fish in a bait maker, then using that bait in a crab pot will double, triple or even quadruple your chances to get that fish. Anytime: -If you ever need a certain forageable, you can go to the bottom of the options and there will be a screenshot menu, the screenshot will show a whole preview of the area you're in, including any forageables (as well as dragon teeth for the island obelisk). -ALWAYS go to the secret woods every day, it will give you 150 foraging xp every single day, and a bunch of hardwood, which you need a LOT of.

Another moss tip. If you plant mossy trees in your tree farm and DONT harvest the moss from them they will make wild trees in a 5x5 square (max 8 wild trees) the wild trees around it will grow moss faster, put mushroom logs between the trees leaving a row to walk and put tappers on the trees. This makes an awesome 3 in 1 farm for syrup mushrooms and moss. Ps pine trees with mushroom logs are best for money until you get the mastery magic seeds.

these are some great tips!! happy i could help!! ❤

The most important tip is to put what you get from treasure chest into your inventory first before clicking “Okay”. Especially the Dinosaur Egg 😌

Before the bait maker, I just used the fish ponds. I can pull out one squid and cook his favorite dish and the squids will repopulate the pond as time goes on. Pulls double duty in that I can have fish ponds for midnight carp and flounders too so I can have all of the materials for seafoam pudding fresh on the farm, and get the squid ink in place of roe. Fish ponds are also more useful than the well. Not really a fan of the fish smoker with fish ponds though, they lose any quality they had once they get hucked into the pond.

Honestly, I only open mystery boxes until I get the book to find more mystery boxes, then start banking them to trade for golden ones, then, I only open those until I have all the auto-petters I want and then it's all about the Magic Rock Candy. Yeah, there's some good stuff in them, but nothing you really need besides those.

Cabins are good... But you have to have a second character/player on that farm to actually go to Robin and buy those upgrades. I know it's possible to do even without actually getting somebody else to help you, but I'd rather do sheds for convenience - unless I am going for cabins as decor on the farm (then I might as well just go all out).

Giving junimos raisins will also allow them to harvest scythe crops too.

didn't know about the magic rock candy trade agains golden mystery boxes. Will do that from now on

They kind of nerfed the upgraded cabin benefits, though, by making it more difficult for the host farmer to use/decorate.

One of my favorite new things is the mannequin and their quick change clothes swap feature. I have about six I keep dressed in different outfits in my house so I can swap outfits easily. Lots of fun creating outfits now.

🐧didn't know the tip about pickling magma caps

During the green rain, i also like to use a weapon with a haymaker enchantment so that i can also get hay for the animals while I harvest fiber! Useful if you have lots of animals and run out of hay quickly. Also as an added bonus, weapons don’t destroy small trees

Oh and I want to talk a little about the trinket Magic Quiver. You see the Magic Quiver can be effected by the ring accessories that you wear and the weapons too. If you combine the Napalm with the Iridium Band and equip it then Magic Quiver will have more attack power and makes the Monsters explode when defeated. If your weapon has an enchantment like Crusader and you are holding it while your Magic Quiver is attacking a mummy then it can finish it off too. These are just some examples of how to use the Magic Quiver. I am still trying more things to do with it. But so far I think I'm having the most fun with this trinket. I thought I would share some of my findings. I would love to hear what other players have discovered too.

I discovered the power of fish ponds around year 2, and now have 8 built. Half are for roe production, the other half are for propagating crab pot fish for recipes/quality fertilizer Gotta get those crab cakes for the skull cavern dives

Omg its me!!!! Woah!!! I am humbled. Lava Eel ponds for life!!!! And on the day after my birthday too! Thanks so much!!!

I always always throw lava eel roe onto the preserves jar, in fact, lava eel is the only pond I keep rebuilding in all my saves. Preserved lava eel roe sells for $1,064, not much compared to magma caps but considering it's an item you get passively definitely works best for me. Also, lava eel ponds give spicy eel too from time to time AND you can toast an eel every four days. Honestly, lava eel ponds are a damn good investment.

Didn't know about the mystery box tip. Thanks! 🐧

I've been playing this since 1.2. I'm so glad there's always more to learn and do in this game. Best $12 I ever spent (had a coupon code when I got it).

Idk about Legend II being "easy" (regardless of build) with my mid reflexes, however you can also do that trick with Ms. Angler or maybe Radioactive Carp.

Man.. i wish meowmere can shoot nyan cat projectile in this game too

The magma cap thing is also a great way to get money from all the mushrooms (except red mushrooms). Preserve jars will effectively take all of your mushrooms 50g over the iridium sell price, making them a great option for all lower qualities. Compared to the dehydrator preserve jars lose on every crop on a per-day basis UNLESS they are gold quality (or higher) in which case dehydrators only give 25g profit (gold) or lose money (iridium), while preserve jars guarantee a minimum 50g profit (iridium) and an extra 33% compared to to the gold crop sell price. While the dehydrator is better for the mushroom farm caves normal quality shrooms, you can throw some preserve jars wherever other mushrooms spawn for some easy extra money. I did not know you could preserve jar mushrooms before watching this video. This apparently works with any forage-tagged item that gives positive energy/health when you eat it (as of 1.6), though this is not reflected on the wiki unless you go scrolling toward the history section* (which does not mention dandelion**). I recommend using extra preserve jars on winter roots and snow yams during winter. Even using an iridium-quality snow yam will net a 25% sell price increase due to the low initial sell price. I will now be giving this tip to all new players who fail the quality crops bundle in their first year and need winter income (and maybe on new farms I'll start keeping a couple at the mines if I'm too lazy to use them for other things). *This refers to the history section on the preserves jar page, not the version history page where I was unable to find this info among the patch notes. ** This history note does mention that you can age clams and I have not been able to test if this means roe or actual clams. Also, since clams are now considered fish you make be able to smoke clams which is also something I plan to test. Edit: tested 5/4/24 - Aged clam no (so the wiki is referring to roe), smoked clam yes (though I can't imagine this info is all that useful) Disclaimer: I do not edit for the wiki, so if anyone who does wishes to use any of this info, I encourage you to

2:31 if you do this in modded SDV, for some reason, it won't make your inventory larger. if you also replace a big chest with a small chest with the big chest already full, half of the items inside will be gone.

You're videos are so helpful! Thank you

I find using the sign to label sheds is moot (except for cosmetic sheds as opposed to functional ones) since usually you want to have a copy of whatever production item is in the shed sitting out front acting like a timer. Crystalarium, preserves jars, kegs, even crops. Similar but slept on application of this: On one of my farms I keep a single potted pineapple at my main farmhouse to function as a timer for my ancient fruit in the greenhouse and on the island, since the regrow rate is the same. Conveniently, you can overlap this if you are aging gold cheese to iridium in your casks since that also takes a week.

I would like to add something. So getting the Animal Catalog book is a must. Unfortunately you can't get it until year 2. So have some rain totems ready and use one at the end of year one. If you have unlocked Ginger island use one there too just incase and then Marnie will be at her shop for sure on the first day of year two. Buy it as soon as she opens her shop.

Hah, sorry about the green rain essay😂

I am overwhelmed over the information i just witnessed! I was resisting from spoiling the content until the updates get released on console, but I JUST CAN"T RESIST THE TEMPTATION ANYMORE!!! I didn't even know the mystery boxes work like geodes AND DID YOU JUST GET A MAGIC ROCK CANDY FROM ONE!?! WHAT IS A FISH SMOKER!?! GOLDEN ANIMAL CRACKERS IN PONDS? GOLDEN MYSTERY CRATES? LIKE WHATTTTT!!?!

Penguin! I learned so many new things! Thank you for this video! You're Awesome! 😊😊💜💜😊😊

I really think you would enjoy my time at sandrock, the sequel to my time at Portia, it’s got a very comfy community feel to it, it focuses more on being kind of a handyman in a desert town, and the community aspect of it is something I really like and feel it does better than stardew valley. Obviously different games, and I love stardew valley as well, but I think more people should give sandrock a try

your voice is so nice to understand! thanks for this video, greetings from brazil

8:50 _"...place mushroom logs next to any trees you tap (during green rain)"_ - I might be missing something, but I'm confused - what does that have to do with the green rain? Does tapping the special trees stop them from reverting back to normal or something?

Use challenge bait while fish frenzy and put in the fish smoker it would be easy to catch multiple fish and gain more money

Can you upgrade Cabins without farmhands?

Fun to get one of my comments in your latest vid. :)

Keep it up!

Thank you for the tips! Can I ask how to edit the shoes to look like that? It's so cute! I like it so bad! ;-;

Frog eggs or something are nice in the game frr

Szupper jo nezki nagyon jolett❤❤❤❤❤

May I ask, how you get that parrot? The one that follows you around or the name of it

when she was in the mines, she was getting gold from defeating monsters. is that in the new update or is it a mod? i havent played since the first version of 1.6 came out

This game is so overwhelming, I'm never going to complete it without wasting more hours of my life away as it is!

haley best pro tip🙏🙏

I wonder if the youtuber mentioned will see this video

PENGUIN several times. Cheers.

9/10 on magma caps? that item is really hard to get, not only that it is NOT farmable, you need to go to the volcano or the cave which does NOT resets daily. money making a starfruit, ancient fruit or even pumpkins works way better than those.

Penguin!

Penguin… 😲

🐧 It seems no matter how much you pay this game, there's still more to discover. Also, the penguin seems appropriate, as I'm playing it on Linux. 🙂

I love big chests

your voice is so sweet 🤌🌹

Does these tips not all of them work 1.5

HALEY SUPREMACY

Man, what a cornucopia of a game. Concernedape over here making AAA devs look like CHUMPS. SO MUCH STUFF IN ONE GAME.

Never been this early!

I'm sorry... PRO Stardew Valley gamers? How does one pro a casual, cozy game? I can't imagine a bunch of players on a stage playing against each other ala Dota or something. Does that really happen??

These are all so helpful! I had no idea about the chest one! Penguin. 🐧
