Blueberries
Just shat a brick when I threw all the blueberries I have harvested (first harvest of them, summer year 1) and the next day how much money I got, dear mother of god!

To all noobs, farm blueberries in Summer!

As soon as you get the greenhouse :D farm blueberries all year and maybe grapes for wine. Well pale ale sells also quite well.

I shall remember that! When do you get the greenhouse back up and running roughly? And, I think I read, it's best to do like star fruits and the rare fruits in there isn't it?

It's best to do high-value, slow-growing fruit like Starfruit and Ancient Fruit in the greenhouse if you're going the route of winery/artisan goods. For sheer profit straight from selling the crops, go berries. If you pick the Artisan perk, though, a Starfruit/Ancient Fruit winery will make so much more money.

Depends on how hard/easy you want to make it. If you want to make more money, I stilll think hot peppers are better. But you have to do more work.

The reasons being: you can afford 2 pepper seeds for every 1 blueberry seed, and you can reinvest 4 times in the 13 days it takes to get a blueberry. You get the peppers on days 6, 9, 11, 12, and 14, whereas you only get 3 blueberries on day 14 - which means on all those days you're buying more peppers and planting them, you're slowly maximizing the number of tiles you use.

Over the course of the whole season, hot pepper production can considerably outnumber blueberry production. The problem is that without sprinklers, you really can't: you won't have enough time to water so many crops, even if you do have the energy. The benefit to blueberries is that you get multiple at harvest without having to use extra energy. It would require some experimentation, or extensive calculation to know for sure which is better within the time/energy limits, and I don't want to bother doing either.

And forgive me for saying "lazy" before. It's not the best choice of word and I don't mean to be rude or insulting.
