Changes

The number of berries obtained from each salmonberry bush increases as the player's [[Foraging#Foraging Skill|Foraging Skill]] increases.  At Level 4, two berries will be harvested from each bush instead of one.  At Level 8, three berries will be harvested from each bush.  If Foraging Skill is temporarily increased to 12 or more with a Foraging [[Buffs|Buff]] (by consuming [[Cooking|food]]), then 4 berries will be harvested from each bush.

Salmonberries harvested from bushes never grant any Foraging XP.

Salmonberries harvested from bushes grant 1 Foraging XP per berry harvested.

With the [[Skills#Foraging|Botanist]] profession all Salmonberries, from all sources, will be iridium quality.  Otherwise, berries shaken from bushes will always be regular quality, regardless of Foraging skill.  Therefore, the only source of silver and gold quality salmonberries is [[The Cave|the Farm Cave]].

==Tips==

*While the game suggests gathering Salmonberries to get extra cash, its low sell value also makes it a cheap source of energy and health, and an inexpensive gift to those who like it. Salmonberries can be especially valuable in year 1, when energy resources and gift options are limited. Raising Foraging to level 4 in the first two weeks of the game may yield a total harvest of over 400 salmonberries during harvest time (over 10,000 supplemental energy).

*Each bush has a 20% chance to spawn salmonberries on the overnight update. This increases to 50% on a reloaded save, meaning quitting and reloading the game will net an average of 2.5x more berries. Reloads will always generate identical spawns and will not change even if the game is reloaded again. (See [https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/whats-your-record-for-most-blackberries-or-salmonberries-in-one-season.10260/#post-62747 this forum post].)
