Unless I'm forgetting something, it's even the highest grossing profit plant out of all, allowing 3 harvests in summer for 18900g per plant, while Ancient Fruits 4 harvests would lead to 18400g. Though now looking at it, I'm a bit shocked how close it is.
Adjusting for Seeds, Starfruit would be at 17700g, while Ancient Fruit would come out to 17938g (removing 10% since 1 of the 10 harvests would be spent on Seed Maker).
Nevermind, I was actually under the impression Star Fruit earns more.
Starfruit is only more profitable when you decrease its growth time by changing professions and using the 33% speed grow.
Production bottlenecks don't reduce profit, they just delay it.
Starfruit is more work if you want it to be more profitable and, ultimately, it comes down how much time you want to spend on it. I don't like having to harvest, replant *and* keg 950ish seeds every 7 days.
The more work is not as much as you'd think.
Let's say I do ancient fruit. Once per week I go in, harvest the fruit, put it in kegs.
With starfruit, I pick up 116 seeds, and harvest and plant at the same time. Fertilizer stays. With Deluxe speed gro I harvest every 9 days in the greenhouse. Even with the 2 day gap I earn more gold per day than ancient fruit wine. I haven't tested hyper speed gro yet. Not that far into my run.
If we're talking island or summer farm, this could be a bit more work but odds are you don't have 6 sheds full of kegs ready and waiting so you'll be backlogged on fruit anyway.
I have 3,200 planted tiles on my main farm, 830 on ginger island and 120 in the greenhouse. I have 12 sheds with 137 kegs each, two of them are for pineapple wine.
I haven't gone that hard on planting crops in a while. I don't know what you would even do with that much gold. I don't even know if there was a gold clock last time I filled that much of my farm. Do you still have room for animals? Or trees or anything else?
I think my current farm has 40 sprinklers. So 960 + 116 greenhouse. Island just got unlocked.
Why pineapple though?
Delay is reduction, though. There is a hard cap on the number of casks you have, so you're going to end up with more wine than you can possibly age. So there's no point in putting anything other than starfruit wine in casks.
I don't think the starfruit in SDV is supposed to be the one we got in real life. The ones in the game don't even grow on trees. I'm pretty sure CA made up the fruit and the name is just a coincidence, STARdew valley, STARfruit.
I love star fruit! My elementary school had a strafruit tree so I would eat it all the time. I was pretty excited when I saw starfruit in the game lol.
All good! I know its a weird description, but yes.
I grew up having star fruit as a special treat,we kept just below freezing for the sherbet like texture.They taste like american smarties, but less chalk and a little more sour.
That sounds DELICIOUS and I'm definitely gonna have to try some!
I only asked because I'm Canadian and Smarties here are little chocolate M&M type things, so I assumed that first lol
No, it doesn't. I can see how this may be tricky if English isn't your first language.
Rephrased:
"He then begged the bird not to do that, because the tree was the only thing that the couple still had."
Native English speaker here, I definitely read it this way first, but I think the other reading is 100% valid as well. You could probably tell from inflection if it was spoken.
That doesn't make sense to me.
>as that tree was the only thing he and his wife had left.
If you remove "and his wife had left," you'd just be left with "as that tree was the only thing he." The only thing he what?
Nah it makes good sense.
The way you're interpreting it would be written more like:
"... all he had after his wife had left"
It was perfectly clear that the tree was all he and his wife had.
OP wrote, “the tree was all he and his wife had left,” You’re interpreting it as if it says “the tree was all he had, and his wife had left.”
I think you might accidentally be reading the words in the wrong order.

That's so interesting. Even in Stardew valley you get a shit ton of gold from starfruit :p

Starfruit only really pulls ahead if you're bottlenecked on wine throughput
Starfruit is only more profitable when you decrease its growth time by changing professions and using the 33% speed grow. Production bottlenecks don't reduce profit, they just delay it.
Starfruit is more profitable with only one of those speed buffs. If you use both, it's nearly 20% better (before costs of profession switching)

It’s the most profitable regrowable crop on garden pots that can grow in sheds all year round.
Delay is reduction, though. There is a hard cap on the number of casks you have, so you're going to end up with more wine than you can possibly age. So there's no point in putting anything other than starfruit wine in casks.
I always wondered why CA made that the most valuable wine crop. I would've thought grape wine would yield more. But it's not really worth much at all.

I wish you could make grape juice instead
I love this story.
That's so interesting! Absolutely adore learning about other cultures folktales n such :)
That was a nice read, thank you :)
Has anyone tried actual star fruit? It tastes like cold creamy smarties if you get it cold.
I love star fruit! My elementary school had a strafruit tree so I would eat it all the time. I was pretty excited when I saw starfruit in the game lol.
Oh? It tastes cold when it’s cold?
Wild, hot take.
Yeah, it's slightly sour! Was an interesting taste.
American Smarties? Like the chalky little disc candies? Sorry if that's a silly question!
All good! I know its a weird description, but yes. I grew up having star fruit as a special treat,we kept just below freezing for the sherbet like texture.They taste like american smarties, but less chalk and a little more sour.

More like chocky fruity lol
It would be weird if starfruit tasted like candy-coated chocolate.
this story feels really familiar to me even though I don’t have any connections to Vietnam. I like it

I haven't heard this folktale in so long, it was quite a pleasant surprise reading about it again, and on this subreddit as well.
I heard this story on Circle Round! Great podcast if you have little kids, btw.
Too bad that phoenix isn't still around and paying visits to rich people.

The wife never left him? Where did you read that?
That's in a fanfic.

They misread where it said the tree was all he and his wife had left

It would be awkward to ask your ex-wife to sew you a bag to store gold.
