Stardew Valley Player Discovers Essential Feature After 3,000 Hours Of Gameplay

screenrant.com:

Long time players are just now discovering a useful feature for their farms. One of the game's major aspectsis farm customization, and it is something many players put a lot of thought into. Each player has their own thoughts about how a farm should be set up, and first-time players often go back and forth between whether they should focus on planting crops, managing animals, or the production of other goods, like wine and jelly. A perfect blend can give players enough money to live a rich life and the chance to focus on other things.

One Reddit user shared a video of themselves breaking the bushes that come standard around the house. shsl_izzy asked whether or not they were the only ones who knew this was possible, and the resounding reply was no.

Many didn't realize these bushes could be removed and had always believed they were permanent. One player, hippipdip, mentioned they had played over 3,000 hours and only discovered this because of that video. Some wondered if it was a new feature in the 1.6 update, but others shared that it has always been possible.

With some preparation, players can optimize their Stardew Valley fishing operations for huge profits. Here’s how the 1.6 update makes this possible.

The catch with this exciting discovery is that these bushes can only be removed on certain farm layouts in . If the player is on the Forest Farm or the Riverlands Farm, they are removable, and some are removable on the Beach Farm but not on any of the other types. The bushes do not grow back on their own, so it is important to keep that in mind when removing them. Players can buy the seasonal plant decorations to replenish them if they choose to add them back for aesthetic sake.

It is unsurprising that many players weren't aware of this option since some tend to stick to playing on the Standard Farm, but branching out to different farm types can be a fun change of pace for players. Each farm type offers different challenges and new variety for playthroughs.
