This can be done pretty easily by making spiral trench patterns and putting one seed with a bunch of fertilizer sticks in the rest of the trench which will boost the seed very quickly from Gombe's sad half star seed to fancy five star within one season, possibly even one grow cycle if it's a longer growing crop like pumpkin. I recommend if you choose Konohana to in the first few years just focus on getting 5 star crops/seeds once you have the seed maker. I blitzed the cooking festivals with my bluebell charachter so I could also quickly run through the mountain pass and turned the Kono farm into an orchard so I wouldn't have to worry about forgetting to water them. Take care of you animals and expand expand expand.
Bluebell with the animals is pretty straightforward how to get the money rolling in. The way I handled the two different town choices was by making my first save a girl character starting in Bluebell and a boy character starting in Konohana. If you don't care about the mountain path expansions and want to focus on farm and house upgrades, you can absolutely just ignore the cooking festivals until you have what you want. ToTT is a bit obnoxious in the once per month upgrades, cooking festival or no that doesn't change. It's a bit obnoxious honestly bringing a five star dish and than losing because Ying is a child and Hiro can't cook well either but if you really want to rush the cooking festivals you can restart the game at the beginning of the day so RNG might give the opponents worse dishes and your teammates better dishes.įor a mountain shortcut before you get the pass open, if you buy an owl pet you only have to walk to the top of the mountain and you can call your owl from there to take you to either of the towns instantly, essentially cutting the time in half that it takes to go back and forth. Don't worry about your cooking skill to much, honestly winning the cooking festivals is complete RNG.
