The Harvest Moon Discussion Thread!

Of course when I get the music to unlock the mine, the weather calls for 4 days of snow in a row meaning no Harvest Sprites. -.-
 
Yeah, it's okay though, I have the mine now and am on Town Restoration #4.

But now I am torn between Felicity and Iroha, I think I'll go with Felicity though. <3
I just need to make some cheese, butter, mayo, etc.

If you have the bottles (10) I'd build both the cloth maker and cheese/butter/etc maker at the same time and opt for the seed maker later. It's easy to win the crop festival for the restoration plan if you have the best soil and fertilize at least one of them daily (this is assuming you have 1/2 - 1 star seeds. Your best bet is to plant a tree.

Felicity is an awesome choice. If I were playing as the boy main character I'd definitely be picking her up, too. <3
 
How long do I have to give Iroha roasted mushrooms in order to get a blueprint for an upgraded axe. I have given her one every day for a month and I keep talking to her. I need to upgrade my axe to chop down those pine trees. thank you to anyone who can help
 
I made the cloth and the cheese maker now. I give my cheeses and whatnot to Felicity. <3
I also got in the Travel Agency and the Tailor's today. I still have Gravel Soil, I am not sure how you get the better kinds of soil.I also just need one more platinum until I get that ultra hammer and then I can finally mine in the red mine.

Oh, and my dogs and cats are taking out all my grazing animals now YAY!
But, what do I put for them to eat? They aren't eating anything. Do I just plant the grass seed and leave it there?

I just give her rocks/small rocks/black rocks/etc. and she gave me all the blueprints within a season and a half I believe.
 
They will be available as blueprints once you've harvested a certain amount of crops. The soil field (best one you can get) is available after you harvest 1000 crops. There's also the regular field, obtainable by also harvesting crops, but I'm not sure on the exact amount. Significantly less than 1000, though.

As for your animals they'll eat the fully grown grass you plant. When they're first let out they all go for the closest grass available if they've yet to eat and if another animal gets to the grass they were going after they'll stop and be discouraged. However, after a little time they'll eventually go after a different portion.
 
Okay thank you, and does grass seed constantly need to be replanted then, and does it need to be watered?

Also, does anyone have a good quality winter crop at least 2 stars or higher, I accidentally shipped all my quality winter crops, and the crop festival is only 3 days away, and any foraged herb is only 1 star.

Grass seed does not need to be replanted or watered. It will grow back automatically. :)


I also have a 2 star big broccoli if you'd like it.

You don't need to give her Roasted Mushrooms. :P
All is needed is to give her gifts, just simply using magic blue flowers worked for me, but she will eventually start giving you blueprints, and it only takes a few days to get all of them from her.

Oh that'd be great thank you! I am not sure what I have on hand as usually everything goes into storage at the end of the day, but I'll go make a room now.

Also, such a relief that grass does not need to be replanted and that it regrows, oh and my tea leaf trees are fully grown and didn't need to be watered, but I fertilized them.
 
thank you superpenguin. I started giving her some copper and she gave me blueprints for upgraded watering can, hoe, and something else. no axe upgrade yet. I guess I will give her rocks and things . this is taking a long time.
 
thank you E765. Some where in these posts I was told to give mushroom dishes. Now I will give her rocks and things. She finally gave me some blueprints, just not the axe upgrade which is the one I really need inorder to place the newspaper carrier building. I just placed the salon but now have no more room for anything.
 
I just ordered A New Beginning! But after doing some research and video watching, I REALLY want to play Hero of Leaf Valley on the PSP.
Thing is, I don't own a PSP nor do I want to buy one just to play one game. Cause I'm difficult like that :p so I'll be happy with my 3DS game since this new game looks SWEET.

You'll love it! Just make sure you hoard everything!

Felicity is at a Purple heart now, woo!! Too bad my gardening tour was a total fail, I guess I really do have to change it every season.
 
When I was trying to get the blueprints from her I just gave her mushroom soup every other day and got them all within two seasons. :c
 
How far is everyone in the game? It seems like everyone's past me. >.<

I'm dating Neil, red heart, on Year 2 Spring 4, about 400k G (I spent 100k to buy a blue feather) , Town Plan #4... not much.

I'm dating Iroha, Green heart, Year 1 Fall 4, about 70k right now but I just bought a bunch of seeds, stuck on plan #2 due to honey products, haha

Tip: when you make honey, there's a way to get each bee(hive) to produce 2 jars of honey instead of one. You just have to align then perfectly like this:

x x o x x o x x
x x x x x x x x
x x o x x o x x
x x x x x x x x
x x o x x o x x
(o= beehive)

Basically, the corners need to match up, and there has to be a sort of invisible square between them. Now from these 6 beehives, you will get 12 jars of honey instead of 6. Sorry my explanation isn't the best, you can just look here http://fogu.com/hm11/farm/bees.php
