Rice Shoots Drops

[StopItStepBro]

Not sure if I saw it in the patch notes on where to purchase rice shoots, however, I did find out that the bugs in the bug cavern (sewer) now drop rice shoots as well, gathered about 14 shoots while farming algae soups. Just something I thought I’d throw out there if anyone didn’t know.

Rice Shoots are sold at Pierre's store in year two for Spring.
They grow better near water NOT IN water. Then you need a mill to make the Unmilled Rice you harvest into the Rice you use for cooking.

Now the Mill can do three things instead of two (sugar and flour). All three of which are irrellevant anyway.

Really you only get the Mill for a complete farm.

also you can randomly get them from using the hoe on an artifact spot.

The good thing is that apparently they grow without needing to be watered if they are close to a pond. They self-irrigate. I'm looking forward to learning more about this crop.

I hoed some up in my first year. THey came up in a 4, so I'm guessing it's 3-5.

Do they only grow in spring?

Eh, it's decent for players who like using the kitchen. Wheat can now make animal food, become beer, and is a cooking ingredient. Sugar is pretty useless as far as I know, maybe a few gift foods? You do need wheat for one or two useful dishes, though.

Rice, uh... I guess for a fishing themed farm, make rolls would be better than sashimi, maybe?
