Buying Greenhouse from Joja...

[tools guy-kun]

Is buying the Greenhouse from Joja the start of a Joja based story? I unlocked the bus station and mine carts through the bundles, and I don’t know want to play a Joja story if I simply buy the Greenhouse.

The seasons have already passed to get the quality crops, so do I have to wait these next few seasons to play a Stardew story?

Once you buy the membership at Joja, which you need to do before you can buy the greenhouse from them, the community center is permanently replaced by a warehouse, and you can no longer put any bundles in there.

And if you want to do bundles but you missed a chance to get certain seasonal items for them, you'll have to either wait for that season to come around again, or hope you get lucky and find what you need by rummaging through trash cans or seeing if the travelling merchant is selling it at some point.

I can get the other crops just fine by using the item ID spawner method with animals, but it's the quality crops that are the problem. I can't get those right now because they specifically have to be gold and I'm a PS4 player so I can't use CJB item spawner or save editor. Oh well, guess I'm SOL then. Thanks for telling me this.

Okay here you go
Joja Story: You purchase a Joja merbership in the Jojamart, it then replaces the community center with the warehouse. Instead of putting in item bundles you will then have to pay for each thing to be repaired or otherwise.
Stardew Story: You just make the bundles and let the Junimos work their magic as you complete the rooms.

As far as the quality crops bundle, as long as its the same with PC, which would be gold star parsnip, corn, pumpkin and melon I think? to choose from. But you only need to turn in 3, thats if its the same as PC. Therefore as long as its summer and you have enough time to grow a melon crop you're okay. I'd say have about 10 fertilized plots for melon and corn then you can grow 2 in 1 season and just wait for fall to get pumpkins. If you dont have the time left in summer then you are pretty much SOL.

Again this being only if the bundles are the same for PS4 as they are for PC

Yeah it's the same but I think I need to turn in all 4 of the gold quality crops. Or maybe 3, but I'm sure it's four I have to double check. Honestly though this gives me a reason to actually start working in the game and try to earn something, so I'm kind of using it as a reason to play the game. I wish you could change the quality of the items you get from the item ID method. If I had a save editor that worked for PS4, we wouldn't be having this conversation :/ Don't the quality of your crops have a higher chance of being gold and above the higher your farmer level? My farmer's level is at 6 right now and I'm in winter (I played the fisherman's route most of the game).

I don't think the level matters, i think its luck that matters when it comes to quality of anything. Like i said 10-15 fertilizer should net you enough of the crop if youre lucky enough. But its always good to have more just in case. But I culd be mistaken about the level, possibly skill level but idk about farmer level.

You need 3 x 5 gold level crops, but there are a choice of 4 types of crop to do this with. It is possible to complete this bundle during Spring and Summer.

I just started my second year of Spring Day 2, so I will get started right away. Would the Farmer's Lunch improve the quality of crops I sow from the ground? Or would that be the Lucky Lunch instead?

I have no idea if what you eat helps the quality of crops sown, but I think food is more related to improving your stats than anything else.

I don't know what Farming level you're at, but have a look at your crafting menu and see what fertaliser/s you can make. Quality fertaliser will help you gain gold star crops.

The regular fertaliser you make from tree sap will make a difference, as will re-using the soil. I.e.; Use regular fertaliser on the soil, plant parsnips then, after harvesting them, re-plant parsnips. I've found this also works to give you gold star crops.

You can also check to see what fertalisers Pierre has in stock.

Don't think higher level farming increases chances of high quality produce. Or if it does it's not as important as fertilizer and daily luck.

That being said you can eat food that gives +luck.

Edit: my mistake farming level does infact influence crop quality and daily luck doesnt. You should use fertilizer though to bring the average up. As even at level 10 farming with no fertilizer you'll still pull a decent number of no quality produce.

That being said eating +farming skill food while harvesting should increase the amount of higher quality produce.

[Sue]

You can make different fertalisers as your farming level increase.

Perhaps eating a +luck food before harvesting crops might increase your chances of pciking gold star ones. have to admit I've never tried that one :)

Food that increase your farming level will raise the chances of picking quality products, you only need three of the four.

So focus on growing cauliflower this spring (That will help raise your farming level quickly), then, unless you need summer or fall crop bundles, focus on growing melons and corn in the summer (Corn is annoying to get the 5 gold ones needed, two seasons will help) and then pumpkins in fall.

Make your basic fertilizer, that takes only 2 sap! You can also buy fertilizers from Pierre don't forget!
