The Super Cucumber is a fish that can be caught in the ocean at The Beach or on the Beach Farm during Summer and Fall evenings, and on Ginger Island South, Southeast, West (ocean), and the Pirate Cove during any season. It can also randomly be found in Garbage Cans during Summer and Fall, or at the Traveling Cart for 750-1,250g. There is a 4% chance to catch a Super Cucumber during the deep-sea submarine ride at the Night Market during Winter 15-17 (7% if using a Curiosity Lure). The Statue Of Endless Fortune produces one Super Cucumber on Winter 17, the Wizard's birthday.
Super Cucumber can be caught regardless of time of day or season using Magic Bait.
Super Cucumber is used in the spool of the Sewing Machine with Cloth in the feed to create a dyeable Tube Top. It is a purple dye when used in the spool of the Sewing Machine with a dyeable clothing item in the feed. It can be placed in the purple dye pot at Emily's and Haley's house for use in dyeing.
Fish Pond
Super Cucumbers can be placed in a Fish Pond, where they will reproduce every 5 days. The initial pond capacity is 3 fish, but the capacity can be increased to 10 by completing three quests. When the population of the pond reaches 3, the color of the water changes to purple. The primary output is purple Super Cucumber Roe, but more valuable items are possible starting at population 9.
If a Super Cucumber is placed in the brown box located inside the fenced area north of the Blacksmith, the player will receive the ??HMTGF?? statue.
Trivia
Prior to 1.5.5, the Livin' Off The Landtelevision channel stated that the Super Cucumber comes out during Winter. It does not come out during that season, with the exception of the submarine ride at the Night Market.
1.4: Fixed bug where an entire stack of Super Cucumbers would be consumed when interacting with the brown box. Added iridium quality. Can now be used in Tailoring.
1.4.4: Fixed a mistake in the game data that prevented super cucumber-specific fish pond data from being applied (in earlier versions, super cucumber used the same fish pond data as all generic ocean fish).
1.5: Can now be caught on Ginger Island during any season on Island West (ocean), South, Southeast, and in the Pirate Cove. Chance of catching it in the submarine can now be increased by using a Curiosity Lure.
