how do you water flowers without going through 5 flimsy watering cans a day? do they only need to be watered until mature to flower or something?

the regular watering can lasts a lot longer and waters in an area instead of just one tile, so there's that at least

also I think I heard you only need to water flowers if you want them to reproduce, and that they won't wilt if you just leave them be

You only water them when they're mature and you want hybrids

they don't need to be watered at all unless you're specifically trying to breed new types of flowers

Do you remember Friend Codes? Nintendo wanted people to share them with irl friends only, there was text written on them that was very specific in this.

Will you always be able to determine where new villagers' homes will be? Also when can you start re-locating buildings? My bridge is slightly off-center to the entrance of a forest on the other side and it's driving me nuts.

Yep, Nook always gives you a packet to choose where villager homes are.

Once Resident Services upgrades you can relocate buildings and build bridges/ramps. Bridges and Ramps must be destroyed and can't be relocated on their own though, you need to just build another one where you want it to go.

Resident Services will upgrade after all 3 of your second wave of villagers move in

Darn, guess I have a couple days then. Just have Broccolo so far, who seems nice. Do bridges and ramps take a day to build like the first bridge did?

Yeah, and you can only build one at a time.

Also they don't require any crafting to build just Bells. 98k-145k depending on how fancy you want em.

All of the trash recipes are amazing. You eventually get one once you've caught 10 total Boots/Cans/Tires

Its a trash bag made out of 1 of each. You can also make wallpaper and flooring that looks like a dump!

Also the Boot recipe is literally just 'hey I have two boots, might as well wear them' :allears:

Yeah I ended up putting all 3 new homes on an area not accessible by the bridge I made cause I wasn't thinking, which is hilarious. They are going to have to wait a few days for services

Hey I know this has probably been asked before, but is there a reliable guide to what fish and bugs are presently available anywhere? Every website has conflicting information that I think some of them just copy/pasted from New Leaf in their mad scramble to get clicks. For instance, Peacock and Monarch butterflies are supposedly in season right now, but I've yet to see either anywhere. Similarly, I've yet to find a conclusive answer on whether the second tier of the island *also* counts as "clifftop" or if it *has* to be the third tier if I want to catch a Stringfish. While I'm posting, is there any way to make fish bait faster? Grinding it out one at a time is tedious as hell.

I noticed that. Was hoping there might be a way to, like, mass produce the fish bait, maybe in stacks of five or something.
