I’m glad to see some fellow Mark fans 😭🫡
Recently, I gave both the blacksmith brother's daffodils and then rummaged through the trash only to get a daffodil and I just went "😨 who did this". Good to know it can happen to anyone 😂
I think I would add - as cute as the trash pathing and fencing is, DON'T waste your trash on making them. Once you've cleared the ocean, it is so hard to get trash in any quantity, and you need so much scrap and so much compost (if you want to make fertilizer) that I wish I hadn't lost so much early on. I wish we could break the path and fencing back down into trash again. However - ABSOLUTELY make the trash chest very first thing, as storage is so important. You CANNOT drop an item on the ground and pick it up later if your inventory is full, so having a place you can stash your good stuff is important. You can store things in your selling box, just remember to remove them again before bed. I've also stopped making fertilizer for plants that are one time crop yields. I only use it for repeating crops because it just takes too much trash to make it over and over again.

The caves actually spawn an infinite amount of trash, so it’s not that difficult to get more but I definitely agree that people should hold off on them Edit: I’m a dummy who didn’t realize this was a year ago. My point still stands but yes

Another one is: "Do NOT wait on finishing those temple bundles!" Everytime you finish a seasonal bundle you get access to more seeds. The further in the month you wait the less likely you'll be able to plant those new seeds. I say this out of experience of doing this myself :(

I've done a pacifist run right down to the current bottom of the mines without my sword, so it's definitely doable. Did not know that there was a no-combat mode in development. That's nice to hear.
re: Seeds - The Wild Seeds can also give you crops that you cant access yet via the town rank system. It's very much worth it to plant those
I haven’t accidentally killed a crop with a tool but I have definitely wasted stamina by using my tools on the ground by mistake 😂 Happens a lot when I’m in a hurry with mining a big group of rocks together. Eventually my mouse will miss and I’ll just pickaxe the ground lol

Very helpful indeed, thanks! For me the most important tips were 'naming the chests' (for some reason I had not seen that option -.-) and 'upgrading the lab'.
3:26 In the top left corner of the mines there is a "crack" In the dirt, if you strike it with your pickaxe it will move keep striking it and it will lead you to a bonus ore spot!!! It took me wayyyyyy to long to realize that! But it's really helpful and a neat little feature :3

you actually want to upgrade your watering can the day BEFORE a rainy day, that way you can water, upgrade, have it rain the next day, then pick it up the next day after, assuming that next day is not a Friday. Make sure not to do this on a Friday as you won't be able to pick it up on Sunday.

Sweet Tips!! Hats off to you my lady 👑for all you provide to us!
Ah wish I saw this earlier!! I've gotten the game and been slow in certain areas, appreciate your advice!
i'd like to add one to the list. try digging the sand at the beach too!! so far i've got some coffers, kelps, books, trash(ofcourse😅), a fossil node and something else out of it!!

THANK YOU for the lab upgrade tip! I assumed it was for a single stack or type of seeds (don't know why), so having that clarified was great! It's these differences from Stardew Valley that tripe up, lol
Thank you Sarah and yes as Joker pointed out Stairway is watching
holy crap, after trying to harvest the clovers, I just gave up -thank you for this! Also, was totally ignoring the Lab and hadn't realized the hot springs was open for stamina. (I do keep hitting my plots with the pick ax but that's because of the lag) Super useful tips!
good to know what to avoid, great video as always
It was through one of your earlier videos that I realise you can till the clover spots!
I didn't know that was how the lab upgrades work! I thought it was one upgrade per seed, not for all of them. Thanks for covering that!

Might I add another thing not to do. Do not upgrade your Water Can to Silver or Gold if the next day is not raining or not the final day of the month. Every day plants go without water is a noticable delay on crop growth, it is not worth upgrading them and not being able to water crops. Crops don't need to be watered on the last day of the month since most die after day anyways if they aren't finished growing, there is no need to worry about watering that day. It is also un-needed to water on rainy days. Hope this helps with judging when to upgrade your Watering Can to Silver and Gold.
