Though you’ll have plenty of regular crops to keep you busy on the farm in Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life, you shouldn’t neglect the fruit trees you can also grow in Forgotten Valley. With five standard fruits and more than a dozen hybrid ones, these land-consuming fruit trees require some time to grow, but yield🐟 more than a dozen crops with just one plant.
Our guide to fruit trees has all f😼ruit tree growth se♈asons, as well as a few tips on how to make the most of the space they require with fertilizers to improve the crop quality.
How Do Fruit Trees Work In Story Of Seasons?
In A Wonderful Life, there are five basic fruit trees you can plant at the beginning of the game, with an additional 13 hybrid fruit trees to be made later on in addition to these.
When you plant a fruit tree, you'll need to leave it some space to grow, which means that each tree takes nine tiles total to plant. With careful planting, you can fit six trees in each lot.
When trees are planted, they'll need a season to grow. After they've fully developed, there's a set season in which the tree will flower before finally producing fruit in the season after that.
Along the way, you'll want to fertilize your fruit trees consistently, so that they grow to develop higher-grade fruits. Just like crops, fruits have different grades that effect their total sale price, with higher grades selling for more.
You'll need a lot of fertilizer to increase the grade of your trees, but then, the grade boost applies to every fruit harvested from that tree.
After they're planted, though, fruit trees don't need to be watered, which is quite a time-saver.
Outside applying fertilizer, if you are, fruit trees are mostly idle work, waiting for the plants to be ready to harvest. When they are, you'll see two different size fruits on the tree - a normal-sized piece of fruit, and a co🏅mically shrunken onꦓe.
Shake the trees by standing beneath them in order to harvest your fruits when the time comes. You can get a couple harvests per season, so check your trees often for fully𓆏-grown fruit🐭s.
Seeds Typically Sell For More With Low-Grade Fruits
Depending on the grade of the fruit you've grown, you may find it more profitable to turn it into seeds by using the Seed Maker.
For every one piece of fruit you put in, you'll receive two seeds. Unless the fruit is of a high grade through constant fertilizing or breeding, two seeds often sell for more than one piece of fruit.
For example, one B-grade Orange sells for 90g, but two Orange Seeds made from that orange in the Seed Maker will sell for 140g (70g each).
It takes some time to get the seeds out, and it's not always worth it if the crop is of a higher grade, but Seed Making is a great way to increase the value of low-grade fruit.
