To remember my greenhouse I do a wine wendesday. The ancient fruit grows on a weekly rotation and the kegs take six days. It works out so well. I recommend starting a routine and sticking with it. Mine Monday, (go get that cooper ore, you need it!) Wine wendesday, and Fun Fridays (Gifting is super easy on Friday when most of the town is at the bar.)

When I die in the skull caverns I just turn off the game and restart the day. It's frustrating but better than losing the items because you'll have never gained them to lose them if you quit before it saves.

Tip: When the TV says that it's salmonberry or blackberry season, abuse the hell out this feature. You can easily get hundreds of free food that could last you a long time

I accidentally gave my Glacierfish to Willy, because I had this idea that I could somehow show it to him and he would be impressed, almost like a quest item or something. I thought that he had been telling me about the legendary fish recently, so I thought if I showed it to him, he would react. Well, he did. He was disgusted that I gave him a fish, even though it was the legendary glacierfish, and he was all like, 'What am I supposed to do with this?' or whatever he says.

Don't put driftwood in recycling machines, put it in woodchippers. 1 wood vs 5-9.

Correction: DO harvest the giant crops. They yield more, and will both block movement and reduce productive area if left alone. They are also a source of secret notes. Chop them down.

Ah yes, let me slowly take the walk of shame all the way up to the spa, just to fully recharge and realize it's now 10 or later at night

Adding to the 5:35 energy tip. You can also just lay in bed and click that you dont want to go to sleep. It will recover your stamina too <3

2:08 in latest 1.5.6 update, you can get back those accidentally sold items with no loss. just scroll down a bit until you find them.

Chest-sorting tip: Most items in the game have color-coded description titles (fruits are pink, vegetables are green, flowers are purple, etc). Using colored chests is an effective way of sorting your loot without the need for signs.

I barely found out about this game in 2022! Just like 3 weeks ago and I’ve been hooked ever since! Tbh, I would’ve never imagined myself playing a game like stardew valley but here I am. Thanks for the tips 👍🏻

[ghostlevelzero]

I didn't get into the game until I discovered the Wiki. Learning as I go just makes me feel lost. I planted parsnips, foraged, avoided fishing, was sad I could only talk to villagers once a day, then slept. In fact, I did a lot of sleeping. One day, grandpa's ghost appeared, shook his head sadly, and told me what to do when I was ready to try again, and I had no idea what he was talking about. YouTubers and the Wiki taught me how to play, and now I love it. Especially the fishing. :)

Hey! If you make a mistake with selling something you just bought, you can scroll down to the bottom and undo it by buying back what you sold at the same price you sold them! This was a quality of life change with the 1.5.5 update!
Also, I just discovered something cool that i haven't heard anyone talk about yet. Try clicking on the NPC sprites when you are in the menu (the menu where you can see the gifts you've given to that NPC). They do a special little animation! It's so cute! You should def include that in one of your future videos!

6:48 The reason why surrounding chests wit chairs works is because when a villager rushes after being stopped, they have no hitbox until they either make it to the end of their path or enter another area in order to stop you from obstructing the villager’s path repeatedly.

I should really remember to head to Sandy's in the desert at Thursdays to get that cheaper deluxe speed-gro. Thanks for reminding me! 😊👍

[JamieNotLamie]

I was doing the "give 50 loved gifts" qi quest, and I used up so many gifts I only had one person left to gift and I accidentally gifted them the wrong thing! I always talk to the people first before gifting so I wasn't paying attention.. luckily I had one more person I didn't gift and BARELY made the quest! And I've basically made the same mistakes! But I have so much food now the spa is collecting spiderwebs!

[PixiePrincess]

Actually, I've never once lost the Egg Festival, both before and after the update where Abigail is now a contestant! I just have my own path, from left to right, and just keep moving. The colorful eggs are very easy to see, you only need to make sure you don't walk into a wall/obstacle as you continue.
Also, while it's not cheap, and you may not get everything back, a recent update makes it so you can buy back some of your stuff you lost if you pass out in the mines! (I believe you have to go to the Adventurer's Guild for that. I'm not sure if there's a time limit before your loot is gone forever, so make sure to go there the next day, just in case.)

The farm computer is great, because you can use it to check the greenhouse without going inside. I have at least 3 in different places on my farm.

[thepuff]

Here's another suggestion, put a chest inside the entrance to skull caverns, that way, you can make trips and not lose important items.

[Sladamthebabe]

For the deluxe speed gro tip, the crafting recipe is quite easy to just make them (one coral and one oak resin) and you get 5 fertilizers
