Small tips and tricks (self.stardewvalley)

I recently learned that crows only eats your crops if you have 16 or more tiles planted. That means you can plant 15 crops early without worrying about the crows at all.

What are other small tips and tricks you guys know?

With some exceptions, preserve jars are mostly for the fun. Kegs are where the real money is. Make wine/juice of everything expensive that you have.

You can put random machinery and chests outside your farm, just be careful where - NPCs destroy what's in their way.

Never donate to the museum the first dino egg or prismatic shard that you get! Use the dino egg to raise more dinos, and the prismatic shard for the sword (more damage = killing monsters faster = more efficient mining = more prismatic shards).

Do donate to the museum the first ancient seed that you find though, as you'll get the recipe.

Ancient fruit + keg = mad profits. Plant it on the 1st of Spring, then harvest it through three seasons. Make sure to keep some for more seeds later on.

On average the seed maker outputs 2 seeds for each sacrificed crop, being useful the most for things with multiple harvests (ancient fruit and berries). Plan accordingly.

The greenhouse isn't that big, it's just 120 plots of land, plus some space to plant trees around the plots. It won't give you as much money as a certain endgame location, but since it doesn't care about seasons it's a great place to multiply seeds.
