So I've just got Rebecca and have built Tina's house. How long is it until I start getting Town Plans? I want to start improving the gently caress out of this town.

Err, you're already getting town plans, or 'Town Revitalization Plans' as they're called. In fact, if you built Tina's house, you already completed the first one.

Weird, I never got the request to build the topiaries and such for the first plan. It's not even the first of Summer yet, so I guess Tina's house plan is just available early on? The material requirements for it didn't seem that exorbitant.

How do you win the intermediate crop contest? I've tried fertilizing and watering every other day but I only get 2 stars.

To win intermediate and advanced, you'd need to make use of the seed maker. Put your fertilized product in the maker and replant the seed to continue raising the star ranking.

If you plant from the beginning of the month, use the crops that regrow, and fertilize every day you can get 3 star crops by the end of the month, which will let you win the intermediate festival.

My chickens keep getting super stressed out and I'm not entirely sure why. Anyone know what the problem would be and how to manage it? I feed them and pick them up all the time. Is 2 feed boxes with 2 food in each enough for 10 chickens a day? That's got to be my issue...

I'm not really sure because I only have 7 chickens now, but you can check the animal book thing to see if they are eating. If they are then I would just let them outside for a while and the stress goes away really quickly (I know from a couple times I forgot to buy feed and then it was a weekend). Hopefully you have the farm bell otherwise moving 10 chickens would get annoying.

I just got the greenhouse plans and oh boy, time to start going to the animal sanctuary a lot more often. And maybe buy another alpaca too.

Two questions:

1. How late can I stay up without having to sleep in? I've been sleeping around 6 or 7 but if I could be trap fishing for a little longer I might as well.

2. Does fertilizing regrowing crops after the first harvest up their star rating in the subsequent harvests? I want to try for intermediate by the end of summer and just planted tomatoes.

Thanks for the quick answers!

The cut-off is midnight, and you'll wind up sleeping til 7 afterwards. I haven't stayed up any later than that, though, so I don't know what happens at 1 AM and after. And it does, I think I managed to get a regrowing crop up to 3 stars before the crop festival. It was pretty close, though.

Edit: or wait, maybe it's 11 o'clock.

I stay up as late as 10 to 10:30 fishing without issues.

I once got sick from going to bed at 11:30 though.

You actually got sick? I've stayed up late (but not past midnight) and never been sick. You do get the green not-so-happy face though if you don't eat anything.

I suppose you could do that but there really is no reason to when eating one piece of food will fix it. Also Klaus is insane. One of his cutscenes was like a five minute rant about why macaroni has a hole in it.

BTN is fairly straight forward. Abuse the mines in winter because there's jack all else to do except tend to your animals. Don't bother with the greenhouse, that thing has a strong chance of being destroyed during a summer storm.

(Assuming it's the same as FOMT), the harvest sprites like Flour. Give them as much as you can and raise your friendship with them. You can put them to work on your farm. At 5 hearts, they can harvest, replant, and water your entire (literally every single square you can possibly plant) in 1 day.

Any reason I shouldn't have all my cows/yaks producing great milk? I have some sheep saved at normal level for clothing purposes, but from what I can tell, there's no need for the regular milk (or eggs for that matter).

I am almost at fall year 2 so I can finally get those stupid yams.

Nice, I can't wait to choose the dorkiest one for Neil :3:

I am still trying to trigger the reverse proposal but I lost track of how many gifts I've given him. He's been in game for about 180 days now so obviously I missed a few days but I didn't think I missed that many (the guide says 150).

Edit: And I got it two days later. I think it has to still be Saturday or Sunday and you do have to have the feather in your inventory.

Yeah I have been neglecting the clothing stuff and the ones I have bought are no better than what I have been wearing all game.

I just had my wedding day to Neil and had an animal born the next day and he's still a jerk to me! Pretty cool though that I can make him cook for me and apparently gather items.

Edit: Well I hadn't saved since my wedding and messed something up so I had to reload it and watch it all over again :3: Do not complete town renovation 5 the night before a festival because you get a party the next day and don't get to do anything. I missed my chicken festival and we can't have that.
