For fiber, I always try to do the "Community cleanup" quest from Linus as soon as I can bc all you have to do is fish up 20 pieces of trash & the reward for that is a recipe for fiber seeds. I think they take a week to grow & you don't have to water them. I always blow through fiber on my playthroughs & don't always feel like fiber farming in the mines lol. There are some really great tips in this video though!

Oh that is a very good idea! I think I’ve only done it on one save file because I get tilted when I get trash from fishing 😭😭 but that actually is worth it so thank you for the idea. Thanks for the kind words ❤️

actualy with botanist blackberrys and salmonberrys are both an amazing source of energy and health because once youve hit lvl 10 forage yu get 3 from each bush which makes them stack up very quickly and yu basically don't ever need to buy food after a good couple blackberry harvests (bonus tip yu can also use a crystallarium with emeralds totrade for cheese at the desert trader)

[@SpellThiefGames]

Ohh I never noticed that cheese trade for emeralds that is a good tip!! Fair enough about the blackberries too I am too impatient to gather them haha

for #13, if you're a little later on and really don't want to use money or spend time growing crops for recipes, cheese. Iridium cheese is my main go to, as it can easily top off your hp and a massive chunk of energy.
Once your cows start producing large milk the cheese produced will always be gold quality, and it takes I believe around a week for it to age to iridium if you also get to the point that you have casks.
while there are other options, gold/iridium cheese are a good quick source of healing foods for the mines and caverns.
And a bunch of cheese can be great for money anyways later on too. Stick with cow cheese for your healing imo, as you can age and sell any goat cheese for more money than cow cheese.

I think that is a very good idea I am so lazy with my cows but that is so gold efficient and easy need to make my barn closer to my house 😂 good advice!

it's already so easy making money in this game that the strawberries aren't even that important. Hell, I had to set it to 25% profit margin, and add in a bunch of rules to follow, and still, making money is too easy.
