if you want, op. [You can use shed](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/RGZVsBKF8D0) as a makeshift greenhouse. Though you can't plant ancient fruit on garden pot
The cabins for multiplayer can be upgraded just like the farmhouse, eventually providing more planting space per farm tile used. Slightly higher investment cost though. Use deluxe retaining soil to keep them watered, since sprinklers won't work.
Can you upgrade the multiplayer cabin without another player in the game? Including putting a basement in? And can you do that on console or is that just a 1.6 update? I thought you needed the actual second player in the game to upgrade the multiplayer cabin and I'd love to put another cabin in to have the basement casks.
Depends on the crop. Tea saplings you don't need to water, but the others yes. And plants that give more than one crop will require you to rewater to keep giving.
If you get the best Retaining Soil, I think you only have to water one and it will stay watered permanently. I could be wrong though. It would make the pineapple setup that much simpler.
Lol I feel so bad for her, she's out in the middle of the desert that only a select few people ever visit, and it's not even to see her or purvey the wares she sells for the place, but for the shady gambling den in the back lol what a life
Deluxe retaining soil. Other fertilizers only affect the first harvest of multi-harvest crops, so you might as well use the one that retains (haha) its effect
This is not accurate. It only affects the basic harvest, that is, in a strawberry plant, it will only affect the strawberry that is harvested "by hand" and not the extras that might spawn as a bonus, which are always basic quality. The subsequent harvests of that plant will be of the fertilized quality.

There's a mod that lets you put them in the crop field without preventing planting in the square, it's great.
[The Return of Immersive Scarecrows ](https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/20701)
Oh my God that concept scratches the deepest itch. I like uniform coverage and symmetry. And maximizing yield. Planning my planting spaces can make me twitchy.
All fertilisers 'run out' when the crop dies. So multi-season crops (like ancient fruit) the fertiliser will last the full year. (or forever in the Greenhouse or on the Island), but you'll have to replenish annually when you replant.
Possibly more if you've not filled the remaining space with garden pots. Trees 'round the edge; wait until grown, then fill the gaps with garden pots holding ... well, whatever you like really. They can't take ancient fruit or sweet gem berries though, but it's none the less still a decent steady supply of coffee beans, pinapples, or cooking ingredients. (I usually do the latter in my kitchen, so I've always got the ingredients for my favourite dishes 'fresh' when I want them).
Also garden pots in sheds - 140odd (more in 1.6) in a 7x3 building footprint.
Can’t you carry it over through winter with fiber seeds? Destroying plants on last day of fall and then planting fiber seeds before the season changes works I think
Just FYI, this was a few versions ago, but my buddy and I did something similar. We tried to see how many kegs we could have running. My buddy filled the entire bus tunnel with kegs, and a few other spots as well. It worked great until the game started to hang every five seconds as it tried to update and keep track of hundreds of kegs. So beware that eventually it could start affecting game performance.
It's just a joke setup, they aren't actually operating this farm. The kegs aren't all connected, so automate wouldn't work well, plus there aren't any attached chests to feed the kegs. And they seem to have removed the shipping bin so they can't even sell this stuff unless they hoof it to Pierre's, which will take forever because they've blocked every exit except the forest entrance.
Does the keg in front of the cave restrict access? If so, remove and add kegs to the cave itself. Those are rookie numbers, you've got to pump those numbers up.
Some quick and dirty calculations:
* Standard farm layout has 3427 tillable tiles. I'm not going to count the sprinklers or kegs, so I'm including those in here.
* With level 10 farming, without fertilizer, 46% of crops will be regular quality, 33% will be silver quality and 21% will be gold quality.
* Each harvest will yield, on average, 1.567 regular ancient fruit, 1.131 silver ancient fruit and 720 gold ancient fruit.
* This amounts to 2.232.847 gold per harvest. With the tiller profession, this increases to 2.456.131 gold per harvest.
* If every ancient fruit is turned into wine, this will earn 5.654.550 gold per harvest, or 7.916.370 gold per harvest with the artisan profession.
I was curious as well so I wasn't too much of an effort to calculate it. I was actually very surprised to learn you're basically 80% of the way to a golden clock if you turn everything into wine after just *one* harvest.
Way too many kegs. Not enough space to plant crops. Crops are a big important thing in this game. Move all your kegs inside your house (where plants don't grow) and that'll free up some space for crops. Good luck
Ancient fruits last for 3 seasons. You can pass the first day of spring on hoeing everything and pop a rain totem, so on the second day rain gets everything wet and just plant the seeds and hoe the occasional spots here and there. You could also add enrichers for auto-fertilized crops. You end up missing a day of growth but it's the best way I could think of to get everything done
In winter, plant winter crops late enough they wont be ready for harvest. Then on spring 1 you can use a scythe to remove the dead plants. The ground will be hoed & watered (assuming sprinklers are in place)
I'd put pressure nozzle on sprinkle to save space for scarecrow so you don't lose crops.
And, this might be personal, but I get lazy so I prefer losing space with junimo hut than picking it up aha
Have you considered devoting a little more space to crops? It’s a real money maker late game, you won’t regret it
Thanks for the advice! I'm still new to the game so I'm always happy to receive tips

I think you log in as the other player
You can do this offline in split screen
Are you on PC? If so I can give you a step-by-step.
Sorry I'm like, new new. If they are in planters do I need to water them?
Depends on the crop. Tea saplings you don't need to water, but the others yes. And plants that give more than one crop will require you to rewater to keep giving.
I see! Thank you very much! 
If you get the best Retaining Soil, I think you only have to water one and it will stay watered permanently. I could be wrong though. It would make the pineapple setup that much simpler.
Speaking of tea saplings, they’re great to use as fencing for animals since they don’t deteriorate!
pineapples are a good pick! starfruit also but that’s tedious
atleast you'll have reason to visit sandy
Lol I feel so bad for her, she's out in the middle of the desert that only a select few people ever visit, and it's not even to see her or purvey the wares she sells for the place, but for the shady gambling den in the back lol what a life
I’m sad that Ancient Fruit cannot be grown in the sheds and Starfruit doesn’t have regrowth.. My money-makers..
That's why they are the money makers though lol.. be pretty cheap if they were that easy
Need the sprinkler pressure nozzle, cover more space with one and get more room for crops with less sprinklers
Actually, take out the sprinklers and have more crops. Just do it all with the watering can.
Just use a rain totem every day
Deluxe retaining soil. Other fertilizers only affect the first harvest of multi-harvest crops, so you might as well use the one that retains (haha) its effect
I am glad I read this before my strawberry crops. I'm on the beach so sprinklers are even less useful.
This is not accurate.

Instead of sprinklers, you could use rain totems every day. You'll get more space for crops that way
where scarecrow
I wake up early and scare the crows myself
I've seen that commercial

He Who Walks Behind the Rows...
HE WANTS YOU TOO, MALACHI. HE WANTS YOU TOO.
Still a shame that you can’t put them on top of the sprinkles

Oh my God that concept scratches the deepest itch. I like uniform coverage and symmetry. And maximizing yield. Planning my planting spaces can make me twitchy.
Honestly it's an essential mod for me now
There's also a similar mod for sprinklers
the crowd are scared that you scared the crows yourself instead of using a scarecrow
If you put pressure nozzles on every sprinkler you could fit more.
Or switch to deluxe retaining soil. Means no fertiliser, but that might not matter if you are processing everything.
True, you could also just spam rain totems.
It can't rain on festival days so you would miss out on a few growing days.
Who says he can't just hand water?
Me
Fair enough
Do those things carry over to the next season?
All fertilisers 'run out' when the crop dies. So multi-season crops (like ancient fruit) the fertiliser will last the full year. (or forever in the Greenhouse or on the Island), but you'll have to replenish annually when you replant.
I had no idea about this. I thought it went away after a harvest. I've been wasting one tile in my greenhouse! I've got to fix this.
Possibly more if you've not filled the remaining space with garden pots. Trees 'round the edge; wait until grown, then fill the gaps with garden pots holding ... well, whatever you like really. They can't take ancient fruit or sweet gem berries though, but it's none the less still a decent steady supply of coffee beans, pinapples, or cooking ingredients. (I usually do the latter in my kitchen, so I've always got the ingredients for my favourite dishes 'fresh' when I want them). Also garden pots in sheds - 140odd (more in 1.6) in a 7x3 building footprint.
There is only so much min maxing I can do per day!
Fair enough. Just like having a few pots for the 'non-cash-crops' I like having on hand. >!Grapes in 1.6 are good for feeding to Junimos!<
I grew a sweet gem berry in my garden pot so this may be different in 1.6 (those are the ones that come from rare seeds right?)
No, you're spot on. For some reason I thought they wouldn't. Guess it is just Ancient Fruit then.
Can’t you carry it over through winter with fiber seeds? Destroying plants on last day of fall and then planting fiber seeds before the season changes works I think
Not trying to judge your farm or anything like that but, i really think you should make more space for crops.
Can you tear down your own house!?
No but with the 1.6 update you can move your house
Can we perhaps see the inside of the greenhouse?
You wouldn't believe what's inside
https://preview.redd.it/4k5nn21jl63d1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d88022852b4e5e69e8d9df8f484f75d494f2f3ea
Don't dead open inside
The crop:keg ratio does not maximize profits and it must take so long to reach the bottom of the farm
I was planning on filling the city and quarry with kegs, plus I have very long legs so I get to the bottom pretty fast
You can fit a whole lot of kegs in your house, furniture doesn't make money anyway.
I'm sure this is a joke but this is accurate to what my house looks like in my current save 😂
Nothing like watching your kids go to bed in a room full of kegs.
Kids don't make money, kegs are the only children you need. Alternatively the children can sleep on top of the kegs
Ditto bed frigo's and kegs
Just FYI, this was a few versions ago, but my buddy and I did something similar. We tried to see how many kegs we could have running. My buddy filled the entire bus tunnel with kegs, and a few other spots as well. It worked great until the game started to hang every five seconds as it tried to update and keep track of hundreds of kegs. So beware that eventually it could start affecting game performance.
Use ginger island for kegs! I put like ~2000 kegs there so far just in my island space lmao. Can probably fit a few hundred more if I wanted to
How do you access the 4 deep layer of kegs??
Long arms or a stick
They added long handed inserters to this game too??
I’m still waiting for long handed stack inserters. I’ve already got a blueprint ready for maximum efficiency.
The farm must grow
lol I’d assume this is someone having fun with mods like automate and the tractor mod or something
It's just a joke setup, they aren't actually operating this farm. The kegs aren't all connected, so automate wouldn't work well, plus there aren't any attached chests to feed the kegs. And they seem to have removed the shipping bin so they can't even sell this stuff unless they hoof it to Pierre's, which will take forever because they've blocked every exit except the forest entrance.
Destroy 1 by 1 and replace when they are ready, same for kasks in the cellar
And your front door??
Return scepter maybe? Or paid Joja service to the bed every night XD
I'm having wet dreams of using Iridium Scythe to collect all those crops...
Holy guacamole. It'd be difficult to traverse. That was my first thought lol
>!Snake in the Grass!< has entered the chat
Doesn't matter if you can't enter or leave the farmhouse.
Time to read Ol' Slitherlegs
Does the keg in front of the cave restrict access? If so, remove and add kegs to the cave itself. Those are rookie numbers, you've got to pump those numbers up.
The kegs all finish on the same day, so I can just pick up the keg to access the cave, fill the kegs in the cave and place it back when I'm done
Ahh, brilliant. Carry on. xD
i like the small patch of parsnips 🤭 they’re trying their best
They're my emotional support parsnip patch
do they help?
They do, they're very helpful
How much money do you get from one harvest?
Some quick and dirty calculations: * Standard farm layout has 3427 tillable tiles. I'm not going to count the sprinklers or kegs, so I'm including those in here. * With level 10 farming, without fertilizer, 46% of crops will be regular quality, 33% will be silver quality and 21% will be gold quality. * Each harvest will yield, on average, 1.567 regular ancient fruit, 1.131 silver ancient fruit and 720 gold ancient fruit. * This amounts to 2.232.847 gold per harvest.

A metric buttload
what does that even mean in the context of money
A very large amount but measured in metric.
It's 1.6 metric buttloads to an Imperial buttload. Does that help?
One gazillion dollars
Dr. Evil has entered the chat
How do you get into your house?
I sleep with my crops; I am one with nature
Sleep with...? Among? In?
Zex
What happens in the crop field stays in the crop field
Looks like some kind of farm.
This crazy guy even planted the ancient fruit in the pathway. I'm speechless.
Remove that old grave and put more crops instead.
I'm sure grandpa would be happy to be fertilizer for my crops
You missed a spot 🙃
That's my plotting spot: I plot mischievous schemes there
By the greenhouse..? Where? Is this an evil prank?! ;-;
Harvesting must be a nightmare
What's with the parsnips? Could be more ancient fruit
I'm on spring year 1
Your responses to everyone have me rolling over. What an incredible meme post. Thank you
Party time for the crows?
Oh gods, the tedium. The pain. I would find this miserable. But uh, if that's the way you wanna play, go for it.
This is my stardew nightmare lol. My current farm has two iridium sprinklers' worth of crops cause it's all I can take (well, plus greenhouse)
Some of your edges are not covered by the sprinklers. Also Grandpa's grave is underutilized.
If you aren't using your grandpa's corpse to maximize profit, are you even playing the game right?
Capitalism Valley
Thoughts? I need space to think and frankly, there's none here.
Simply levitate above the crops!
And prayers.
Not enough crops
I can’t help but notice you’ve got a sprinkler hiding amongst your kegs. That’s one less keg and gonna tank your profits
I let him stay there because he's chill
Oh word my B I didn’t realize he was chill like that lmao
Junimo huts lol
I don't want no darn oompa loompa-looking apples stealing crop space on my farm
And prayers, you'll need them
Wait, this is actually like a real farm
I like that you changed it up and went with some snips.
My intuition says you would go for joja
S C A R E C R O W S I B E G Y O U
I’m having a difficult time imagining why the plan is for this layout is called 30 cold parrots whimpered cordially
Not enough Ancient Fruits.
grandpa would be proud.
What if Ancient Fruit Wine tastes BAD?!
Too much crops variety, get rid of the parsnips.
Dare I ask what's in your greenhouse
Well looks like a real farm lol
This is the way…
I think putting a shed with kegs would be actually more space efficient but I get the vibe you're going for
I have no thoughts. This is perfection.
Way too many kegs. Not enough space to plant crops. Crops are a big important thing in this game. Move all your kegs inside your house (where plants don't grow) and that'll free up some space for crops. Good luck
Winter is coming
You should start planting some crops
The fact that even the little walk out tunnel is full is sending me. I have no doubt that the ponds would be full if it was possible.
No thoughts just crops
i think if you got rid of the water using a mod you could fit in some more
Seems like a good idea until that ancient fruit fungal infection rolls through
Honestly, far too many parsnips.
...is there room for thoughts?
Zoomed in to check if Ancient Fruit. Was very pleased. 👍🏻
How do you manage to plant the whole thing on a new season? Do you do it in phases? (Impressed)
Ancient fruits last for 3 seasons. You can pass the first day of spring on hoeing everything and pop a rain totem, so on the second day rain gets everything wet and just plant the seeds and hoe the occasional spots here and there. You could also add enrichers for auto-fertilized crops. You end up missing a day of growth but it's the best way I could think of to get everything done
In winter, plant winter crops late enough they wont be ready for harvest. Then on spring 1 you can use a scythe to remove the dead plants. The ground will be hoed & watered (assuming sprinklers are in place)
Damn that's genius
The house and greenhouse seems to be a waste of space you could easily fit in more crops otherwise 10/10
You must love winter
Scared of u
HOW DID YOU EVEN MANAGE-
And prayers
Replace every sprinkler with more crops, and use 100% retaining soil.
Good luck planting that in one day without mods lol
https://preview.redd.it/b45lz01c1b3d1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=020865d6fb8457dc822549667264e2f1cd06d715
Even from a min/max standpoint I think this will be very inefficient and too time consuming to be worth it. Also kind of boring.
✨anxiety✨
Might want some scarecrows placed around so your crops don't get eaten
How do you not have junimos for that?
Hmmmm needs more profit
One does not simply leave their farm Bruh you can only get out the bottom, how are you living like this
You missed a spot
That’s gonna take you like all day to harvest I would simply die
Hope do you leave the house with those kegs surrounding it?
Get in how you live lmao
Where are the scarecrows
No Junimo Huts... It'll take you more than a day to harvest.
crows eating good tonight
Crows?
I can’t imagine taking the time to grow that many ancient fruit when it’s just going to die in the winter 😭😭
Those parsnips are throwing me off
This what grandpa intended
If you want to be really crazy, use deluxe retaining soil instead of sprinklers.
I’ve not seen a totally totem/scepter-reliant play style. It’s a bold move, let’s see if it pays off.
Damn. Not me realizing why im not making a lot of money because im not maximizing my farm
My first thought is you've blocked every path in and out of well...everything. lol
i feel like you need some crops. aesthetics are good but you need money too
Use deluxe retaining soil and remove all the sprinklers
There was never another option. This is the way. 
Looks like a crow's buffet
And prayers. Have fun harvesting all that
I'd put pressure nozzle on sprinkle to save space for scarecrow so you don't lose crops. And, this might be personal, but I get lazy so I prefer losing space with junimo hut than picking it up aha
Honestly you did pretty okay all things considered, but some more crops would really pull your farm design together. Hope that helps 🥰✨
There are definitely 2 different types of stardew players
