-----------------------------A. Using this Guide--------------------------
-----------------------------A1. Introduction-----------------------------
Hi! My name is Chris Stewart. I'm an avid fan of Harvest Moon. I never really
got around to making any guides. But, a new game comes out, And I've got it,
as usual, so, to fill up the page, I thought I'd clear a few things up.
Searching in some of the other guides, I found some stuff was missing, or
incorrect. So, I got the real answers and decided I'd right a few wrongs by
writing this guide! Anyway, all this one is is basically growing, selling, and
making hybrids of trees and crops. I got all this information myself (So far)
and I hope you enjoy it!
-----------------------------A2. Navigation-----------------------------
Navingating my guide is fairly simple. Here are the basics to jumping
categories. See the table of contents up there? Well, you can hopefully see
the different Number-Letter combinations too. TO find a section, Basically
Highlight (Click your left mouse button, the drag it over to the end of the
letter/number combo) , right click, select copy, press CTRL and F at the same
time (THis opens up the find menu), and left click in the text box, and press
CTRL and V. Now hit enter. You'll be jumped over to it, hopefully. If not,
click enter again! THere you have it!
-----------------------------A3. Version Info-----------------------------
Current Version: v1.02: Made the Animals section completed, with fish and
chickens, cattle, sheep.. you name it. Anyway, next version shall bring
into being a new layout.
List:
V0.1 (April 4 2004) First version, the A Section complete, Table of contents,
basic crops list without pricing, info about generation 1 hybrid crops, and a
load of other information.

v0.3: (April 6, 2004) Minor update, added the crop and tree seasonal lists.
v0.4: (April 12, 2004) Unexpected Update, but gotta keep things coming.
Basically finished Hybrid Gen 1 Crop pricing, added some Gen 2 recipies,
added
some fruit prices, and generally a fairly large update. Fixed some problems
with margins.
v1.00: (April 13, 2004) Updated to next level... by finishing my goals
in the crops and trees section.
v1.01: (April 14, 2004) Added a blank animals section, as well as the
"Your Farm" section (Complete). updated the stats in the bottom.
v1.02: (April 16, 2004)Made the Animals section completed, with fish and
chickens, cattle, sheep.. you name it. Anyway, next version shall bring
into being a new layout.
||+--------------------------B. Your Farm-------------------+||
--------------B1: The Buildings around your farm-------------
There are a couple places around your farm. For this, refer to your instruction
booklet for identification of places.
-A: Your Barn: This is where you keep your horses, cows, sheep, and goats. Also,
this connects to your tool shed and later your milking room. There is a bell
inside that calls all animals into your barn. There is another bell outside
towards the field that you can use to call your animals into the field.
On the opposite side, accross from the entrance to the barn, is the shipping
room.
-B: Tool Shed: This holds your tool shelf, where you put all your tools..
and there is also a shelf where you can store all your miscellaneous items.
It connects to the barn.
-C: Food Storage: This is the shipping room. In the beginning of the game you
can only ship eggs and milk, but later in the game you can ship 2nd Hybrid
Level crops.
-D: Takakura's house: Technically this isn't your building, but this is Taka's
house. Tartan lives here in chapter 2.
-E: Chicken Coop: This is where your chickens go. You need a male and a
female to get a fertilized egg. You put a F. egg into the incubator to make
more chickens.
-F: Your house: You live here. I'll outline this later.
Fields: There are three fields; 1 beside your house (Not Fertile), 1 beside the
chicken coop (Fertile) and one at the corner of your farm (Very fertile),
you'll notice it's gigantic area for crops. You plant trees and crops in
these areas.
Pasture: This is just the area your animals go to graze.
Upgrades: There are 3 things you can make.
1: Pond (2500G) This is just a pond that goes in the middle of your pasture.
Ducks will come to live in it.
2: Processing Room (30000G) This is a place to turn your milk into cheese and
butter. It attaches to the food storage room (Shipping room)
3: Milking room (60000G) This room is helpful if you have multiple cows to
milk and very little time. It attaches to the barn and has a door into
the pasture. If your cows are outside, they will automatically go inside
to get milked.
-------------------------B2. Your house-------------------------
-Chapter One
In chapter one, your house is just large enough for you. You have a bed,
Your bedside table to save your game on, a calendar, an oven to cook food,
and a television. There is also a bookshelf that you can change options and
read Taka's notes.
-Chapter Two
Your house is larger. Now there are two beds; Your old bed (For your son)
and your new bed (For you and your wife) The oven is now gone, but
everything else is still there. Instead of the oven, there's a door!
Enter this door, and you will find your new kitchen! In here is a large kitchen,
A table, and a usable refrigerator! You can store 330 different objects in it!
Also, there are two doors in this kitchen area; One that leads to a bathroom,
and one to a tub.
-Chapter Three
Your house is even larger. 3 rooms; your two previous ones (Your old bed is
missign though!) and a new one, your son's room. Your old bed is located here.
There is also a stick, a table, and a bookshelf where you can find out his
interests.

-----------------------------C2. Making Hybrids-----------------------------
-----------------------------C2a. Getting Tartan-----------------------------
Tartan is a green two headed plant that shows up in chapter two and lives in
Takakura's house. To get him, watch Taka go into his house, and follow him.
You might get a cutscene about Tartan. If not, give him stuff you cook, and
try at different times. Eventually, he'll show up in a cutscene. Now, to get
Tartan to make you hybrids, talk to him CONSTANTLY. Soon enough, he'll ask if
you nee anything and HYBRID will be at the top of the menu.
Now, in Hybridizing, you mix 2 things to get one thing. It doesn't always
work, though. And there are a few rules. You can't mix flowers with trees,
Mixing crops with trees result in the same tree seed and the highest level
(CBAS) and nothing more. Now, there are a few tricks, but those will be
outlined later. Tartan is a nasty trickster; after every seed you make,
he'll ask "Quit Hybridizing?" and give you yes or no. If you pick YES
you'll go back into the Hybridizing menu. If you click NO you'll exit.
Now, when mizing two plants you haven't ever before, if successful you'll
get this sort of Horn/Egyption sort of music, and a new crop will pop out.
If it's unsuccessful, a sort of energetic drum sound comes out. If you've
made the crop before, you'll always get the drum sound, and sometimes you'll
get a new crop. If you fail, you recieve one seed bag back.

--------------------------C2c. About Gen 2 Hybrids--------------------------
Generation two hybrids are very confusing. There are a few things that are
odd about them.
1: They are unnamed. You have 4 spaces to name them.
2: Most of them look like musical instruments, Lightbulbs, and old crops.
3: They are hard to figure out.
Not all hybrids make Gen 2 Hybrids. Some just end up as normal crops.
So, you just have to keep trying at them to win.
So.. pick your name. In here, they are just numbers, in no particular order.
-----------------C2d. Hybrid Gen 2 List (Incomplete)----------------------
Now.. these are just things Vesta and Tartan tell me. If Vesta told me it,
it'll have a (V) in front of it, and if Tartan, than (T). If It worked,
I'll just write what it makes. If it doesn't work, I'll write "False".
Okay... now to the recipies! Oh, and beside it's number, I'll have the name
I put for it.
(V) Dhilon + Caberry= #1 (Diry) (Fall)
(T) Trady + Berryto (Don't know which one)=
(T) Kanro + Radita=
(T) Tataro + Cady=
(T) Tobatama + Bashber=
-----------------------------C2e. Floral Hybrids-----------------------------
Floral hybrids is another name for a CROP (Not trees) hybridized with a
type of flower. Now, only three flowers work; The Happy Lamp (Summer) The
Gemsoil (Fall) and the Upseed (Winter)
Now, mixing with any crop has the same effect. Here are the effects:
Happy Lamp: Can grow in any season (Hasn't worked for me though, might
just me a glitch in my disc)
Gemsoil: Can grow in any soil
Upseed: Upgrades the SeeD to S quality
-----------------------------C3. Growing Crops-----------------------------
-----------------------------C3a. How to plant-----------------------------
Planting is as easy as in every other game. You have your three fields.
Take a hoe (you start with the heavy one, check your toolshed) and till a
square of soil. Now, seeds are another thing in this game. Instead of
1 bag= 9 squares, 1 bag= 1 square. But, don't complain! Seeds are cheaper,
and it just fits. Plus, it won't matter when you have a seed machine.
Anyway, so you place a seed in a tilled square. Tada! Planting is over.
-----------------------------C3b. How to grow-----------------------------
Growing is simplistic as well. As with every other Harvest Moon game, you
simply water your crops. You start with a watering can S(Small) and you can
fill it up at the fountain beside the chicken coop. You simply water the
square with a seed in it. Eventually, your crops flower. Afte rthe flower is
gone, you'll either get to harvest, or else the crop will appear on the vine
for you to *sigh* keep watering.
--------------------C3c. How to Increase Quality-----------------------------
There are four grades of crop in this game; C, B, A and S. I've personally
never seen a C grade crop, so I rarely mention them in this guide. Now, all
the seeds you buy from Vesta and her farm mates are grade B. B is an average
crop. Now, you can increase the grade by giving the plant fertilizer. You by
this at Vesta's farm for 120G/box. Different plants need different ammounts of
fertilizer, but I'm sure it's safe to say each plant needs about 3-6
Applications of Fertilizer to go up a level. My Tomacas took 6, but my Turnips
only needed 4, so there is a difference. Anyway, to apply fertilizer, select
it, use it on the crop, and three black triangular figures appear. Re-apply
when these figures are tiny dots, or are gone.
-----------------------------C3d. The Seed Maker-----------------------------
There are two ways to aquire this amazing invention. The first,
more expensive, but easier way is to purchase it. It should be available by
Fall of year one for 6000G. The other way is to befriend Daryl. Then, enter
his house at about 9am, and he'll complain about them stealing his invention,
and he'll give you the seed maker.
Working the Seed Maker is simple. There are twelve slots. You put crops or
fruit in each slot and it will slowly (around 1 and 1/2 days to 5) decompose
and form 2 bags of seeds. You can sell these to Van, and make a little more
profit (Sometimes) or plant them. This is a good way of getting a load of S
crops.

1: They are unnamed. You have 4 spaces to name them.

So, you just have to keep trying at them to win.
Because you have to name them, I've developed a naming scheme. Simply...

--------------------D2d. Making better trees-----------------------------
TO get better trees, there is a quick and easy approach, or a long,
boring, and expensive approach. The long, boring, expensive one is using
around 60 fertilizers on the tree while it's still growing. THis will get
you to S grade, but it will cost 7200G...
The easier way is to hybridize an S grade crop Seed with any grade of tree
seed. The result is an S-grade Tree seed.
---------------------------D3. Making mega-money-----------------------------
All you need is the Seed maker. Simply collect the fruit, and put it in the
seed maker. The fruit goes for a cheap price, but the seeds go for anywhere
from 400G-1500G. And putting them in the Seed maker... you get 2 bags for each
fruit! It'll last you for seasons to come, trust me! Another method, though
very luvk oriented, is to make a beag (Hybrid level 2) These are made from
Magerums and Phujus, and their seeds sell for 1250G! They take quite awhile to
grow, though.
-----------------------------D3a. The Seed Maker-----------------------------
See Section B3d.
-----------------------------D3b. Fruit Vs. Seeds-----------------------------
As seen in making mega-money, it's obvious that making tree seeds is the
way to go. You make tons more money, and if you have a level 2 hybrid, you
can just keep planting them for even more trees and more money!
||+--------------------------E. Animals---------------------------+||
This whole section outlines Animals and their effects within the game.
You'll find cattle, sheep, the horse, chicken, duck, and such info on here.
If I really feel like it, you'll even find prices.
---------------E1. Cattle (And the stupid goat)--------------------------
Cattle play a major part in this game. Right from the beginning you start
with a cow. It gives around 4 Normal A Milk right from the start. After that,
it slowly dwindles down. There are four types of cattle; Normal, Brown, Marble,
And Star. Star cows are the most expensive. Cows are in genders. There are male
and female cattle, bulls and cows. Cows give milk, bulls get cows pregnant.
Bulls for that sole purpose does sound stupid, but it's crucial to the game!
You see, cows stop giving milk if they don't need it. They only need it after
giving birth. They'll give milk for 40 days (1 year) after birth. It takes
aroudn 20 days from pregnancy to having the calf. 10 Days your dow is pregnant,
ten days your cow is isolated. After that, for 10 days the calf is isolated
in a calf hatch, whereas the mother cow gives Mother's Milk. Personally,
I give this to the calf (Show it to the calf) but it doesn't do much else.
You can sell it, but it's cheap. Anyway, I find this tedious, having to make
cows pregnant every year. But here are some prices and costs.
Costs: Normal Bull: 3000G
Normal Cow : 4000G
Brown Bull : 4000G
Brown Cow : 5000G
Marble Bull: 4000G
Marble Cow : 5000G
Star Bull : 6000G
Star Cow : 7000G
Milk (B): Normal: 75G
Brown : 115G
Marble: 115G
Star : 270G
Mothers: 75G
Milk (A): Normal: 115G
Brown : 175G
Marble: 175G
Star : 405G
Milk (S): Normal: 150G
Brown : 225G
Marble: 225G
Star : 540G
Notes about cheese and butter: I think that Natsume skimped out on this
butter and cheese work. I think they should have made it according to rank more.
Like, Star CheeseB, Brown CheeseA, Normal ButterS... that stuff. Because when
Star cows give A-S Milk, there is not much point in making cheese other than
for cooking...
Good and Normal?
Good Butter/Cheese can be made from:
Star Milk : BAS
Marble Milk: S
Brown Milk : AS
Normal Milk: S
All the others are regular Cheese/Butter.
Cheese: Normal: 300G
Good : 225G
Moms : 115G
Butter: Normal: 300G
Good : 225G
Moms : 115G
And then there was... a goat. The goat is the stupidest creature in Harvest
Moon. I swear it. You get it, for 40 days, it gives you crappy milk. Then it
stops. You cannot breed it to get more milk. You can't even sell it. It just
takes up space. So.. most people end up killing it. And although it is a
horrible and sad thing to do.. it just has to be done. Useless animals.
Prices: Butter: 150G
Cheese: 155G
Milk : 115G
Good: Butter: 350G
Cheese: 355G
Milk : 300G
-----------------------------E2. The Horse-------------------------------
There is not much to be said about your horse. It shows up early Summer,
during Year one of Chapter One. Taka orders it for you. You can ride
it and it generally cuts down energy use and travelling time.
-----------------------------E3. Sheep-----------------------------------
Gah.. I've never liked sheep. They take too long to produce wool and are
just generally anoying. But that's my opinion. Sheep come in males only,
and produce wool once a season. They cost 1500G each. They can produce
3 wools: Wool, Good Wool (FOrgot the name) and Golden wool. In that same
order, you can sell them for 75G, 115G, and 600G. So pah. Stupid sheep.
-----------------------------E4. Chickens/Ducks--------------------------
Chickens are a great thing that have been around for a long time.
Ducks are fairly new, however. Chickens come in males and females.
You can order them for 900G each. Females produce the eggs, and the roosters
can fertilize them. Fertilized eggs can be put inot the incubator to hatch
new chickens. I don't know too much about ducks, but I think their eggs sell
for the same price. If you treat your chickens real good, they eventually
give Golden Eggs.
Prices: Egg: 40G
Golden Egg: 50G
Fertilized Egg: 300G
-----------------------------E5. Fish------------------------------------
Fish are great in this game. I spend a lot of time fishing even though
I'm rich, because I have this schedule. I sell off my fish and if any are left,
I make Meuniere Sets and then sell them for some good money. So.. Here is a
list.
| Prices |
| Fish | Regular | Big |
|---------|---------|--------|
|SharShark|600G |1200G |
|Snelt |30G |60G |
|Colombo |20G |40G |
|Yamame |500G |1000G |
|Huchep |90G |170G |
|Nyamame |60G |130G |
|Arna |400G |800G |
|Rainbob |80G |150G |
|---------|---------|--------|
Tips: In Chapter One, fish in the upper river/Waterfall. I made a lot of money
that way. Occasionally you get a yamame which sell for 500G. Otherwise the
other fish, Hucheps and Nyamames, sell for a good begginner ammount.
