| + | Crafting Fertilizer is always cheaper than purchasing it. [[Sap]] is easy to come by (from cutting [[Trees]] and killing [[Slimes]]) early in game, so it's a good idea to craft [[Basic Fertilizer]] as soon as you reach Farming Level 1. It's also a good idea to craft [[Crab Pot]]s as soon as you reach Fishing Level 3, to catch [[Fish]] and make [[Quality Fertilizer]]. |
| | | |
− | Crafting Fertilizers is always a better option than buying them, and will save you a lot of money throughout the course of the game.
| + | Each time you craft [[Speed-Gro]] or [[Deluxe Speed-Gro]], you receive 5 fertilizers, though the "5" does not show up on the crafting menu until you have the required ingredients in inventory. |
| | | |
− | [[Sap]] is very easy to come by (from cutting Trees and killing [[Slime]]), so remember to craft [[Basic Fertilizer]] as soon as you hit Farming Level 1. It is well worth it.
| + | The table below shows the cost benefit of crafting Speed-Gro or Deluxe Speed-Gro rather than purchasing it. The table assumes that Clam and Coral are of normal quality. |
− | | |
− | When you reach Fishing Level 3, a good tip is to craft a number of Crab Pots and place them in the small lakes within your farm + a few by the ocean. Use the caught Periwinkles, Snails, Shrimps, Mussels and Oysters (classified as [[Fish]]) to combine with [[Sap]] to make [[Quality Fertilizer]]. Easy and cheap.

− | [[Speed-Gro]] and [[Deluxe Speed-Gro]] variants are also cheaper to craft than to buy.
| |
− | | |
− | For each [[Pine Tar]]/[[Clam]] combo, you actually get five [[Speed-Gro]] packs (1 [[Pine Tar]] + 1 [[Clam]] = 5 [[Speed-Gro]]), which saves both money and resources. Same goes for [[Deluxe Speed-Gro]] (1 [[Oak Resin]] + 1 [[Coral]] = 5 [[Deluxe Speed-Gro]]), so get those Tappers up and running.
