- Watch TV
- Clear the area and prepare rows
- Plant and water
- Go to the city!
- ...or stay in the field and continue clearing it
- Throw loot into the bin
Watch TV
Each morning, watch TV, thanks to which you can obtain a new idea for crafting and a hint. Morning TV is the key to success.
Clear the area and prepare rows
Leave your home and start preparing the area for cultivation. While gathering, cutting down trees and crushing stones, you can obtain Wild Seeds. Put them into soil as well!
Plant and water
You start the game with Parsnip Seeds in your backpack. Use the Hoe to make rows. Stick to the rule of 3x3 while preparing segments. The upgraded watering can will make it easier for you to water such segments and, secondly, segments of 3x3, sown over with the same plants will yield one big profitable harvest!
Then, water what you have sown! In your backpack, there is a watering can. If you run out of water, use the watering can on the nearby pond to fill it up.
Go to the city!
That's it when it comes to what you can do in your field, for now. Go to the city to meet your new neighbors. Find the store, the saloon, the mayor's house and the mall.
...or stay in the field and continue clearing it
If you continue clearing, you may find more seeds that you can sow. Remember to water them!
Throw loot into the bin
If, while cleaning, you have found a lot of weeds, you can sell it for profit. Before you go to sleep, throw in into the bin by the house and in the morning, you will receive money for that.
Throw into the bin everything that you find useless. Even your thrash can profit you.
