After [[The Player|you]] accumulate {{price|25000}} in total earnings, [[Demetrius]] will visit [[the Farm]] in the morning and inform you that he would like to use the cave to set up research specimens. He'll give you the option to choose between fruit bats (which leave [[Fruits|fruit]] in the cave) or [[Foraging|mushrooms]]. This choice is permanent and cannot be reversed.

'''The Farm Cave''' is an underground location accessed through a passage near the northern edge of [[The Farm]].  Initially it is just a small empty cave.  After [[The Player|the player]] accumulates {{price|25000}} in total earnings, [[Demetrius]] will visit the farm in the morning and inform the player that he would like to use the cave to set up research specimens. He'll give the player the option to choose between fruit bats (which leave [[Fruits|fruit]] in the cave) or [[Foraging|mushrooms]]. This choice is permanent and cannot be reversed.

Fruit bats leave various fruit in the Cave on your farm overnight. This is a great option for making [[Artisan Goods]] as it gives you a slow but steady supply of [[Fruits|fruit]] even out of season. It also helps complete the {{Bundle|Artisan|16|y}} in the first year or two, before you have enough money to buy all the necessary [[Fruit Trees]].

Fruit bats leave various fruit in the Cave on the farm overnight. This is a great option for making [[Artisan Goods]] as it gives a slow but steady supply of [[Fruits|fruit]], particularly foraged berries, even out of their respective seasons. It also helps complete the {{Bundle|Artisan|16|y}} in the first year or two, before the player has enough money to buy all the necessary [[Fruit Trees]].  
    
[[Fruit Trees|Fruit Tree]] fruits make excellent gifts for villagers because they are universal likes, readily accessible early in the game, and do not require a [[Cooking|kitchen]]. Gifting may be the best late-game use for fruit, other than making [[Artisan Goods]], [[Shipping]] them, finishing the [[Bundles]], or eating them for extra energy (even though they don't replenish very much health).

   −
Fruit found in the cave can be of any quality (normal, silver, or gold). If the [[Foraging#Foraging Skill|Botanist Profession]] is chosen, the fruit will be iridium quality. Each fruit picked up from the floor of the Cave will give the player 7 [[Foraging]] experience points.  
+
Every night, there is a chance of new fruit spawning. If the cave is empty, there is a 48% chance of no new fruit; 25% chance of 1 fruit; 13% chance of 2 fruit; 7% chance of 3 fruit; 7% chance of 4 or more fruit.<ref name="fruitchances" /> The average spawn rate is 1.06 fruit per night. There is no hard limit on the maximum number of fruit in one night, other than the available floor space (50 tiles).
   −
Fruit bats will not leave fruit on [[Crafting#Decor|craftable flooring]].
+
Fruit spawned in the cave always remains there until the player collects it (the cave contents are never automatically reset, even at the end of the week or the end of the month). Uncollected fruit reduces the space available for new fruit to spawn. For example, ten uncollected fruit increases the chances of no new fruit from 48% to 54%.  Placing equipment or [[Crafting#Decor|craftable flooring]] in the cave also reduces the space available for fruit.

Six boxes will be added to the cave where certain types of [[Foraging|mushrooms]] will randomly grow. Five different types will appear, including all four that are required to craft the [[Life Elixir]].  Even though [[Common Mushroom]]s, [[Morel]]s, and [[Chanterelle]]s are the ones that most commonly appear, this is still the best way to craft the elixir as often as possible. This makes the Mushroom option a great one for those who love to go into [[The Mines]], especially since most mushrooms can be hard to find otherwise. This is also a good choice for players that have grown, or plan to grow, fruit trees and do not need the extra [[Fruits|fruit]] provided by the fruit bats.

This is also a good choice for players that have grown, or plan to grow, fruit trees and do not need the extra [[Fruits|fruit]] provided by the fruit bats. After the [[Seed Maker]] recipe is unlocked, the Common Mushrooms can also be processed into [[Fall Seeds]], and then crafted into [[Tea Sapling]]s to either plant or sell.
   −
Cave mushroom production takes one to two days.  Unlike other processing, the time when mushrooms are ready for harvest depends upon the time when the player goes to sleep: processing is faster if the player goes to sleep later.<ref name="mushroomtime" /> The earliest mushrooms can be ready is 12:40pm, if the player goes to sleep at 2am.  If the player goes to sleep at or before 6pm, mushrooms will not be ready until two days later, resulting in a missed day of production.  These processing times apply both to newly-placed mushroom boxes and to existing ones that were just harvested.
+
Cave mushroom boxes produce every second day.<ref name="mushroomtime" /> Mushrooms grown in the cave are always of normal quality, even if the [[Foraging#Foraging Skill|Botanist Profession]] is chosen.  Harvesting mushrooms from the Cave does not award the player with any [[Foraging]] experience points.

+
The mushroom cave comes with a free [[Dehydrator]].
