#helpful tidbits

I apologize for taking so long to do another one of these. I ended up being busier than I thought, heh.

This time I’m tackling a subject that I still sometimes receive questions about: the power of food! Many dishes will have an effect on your character, as indicated by the icon that appears just under your stamina bar.

Many of the time-slowing recipes are available to make only after you have made a lot of progress in the game. The easiest dish for slowing down time is the Anpan Sweet Roll, a Tsuyukusa recipe that requires flour and azduki beans. Azduki beans must be grown (no one sells them), so once adzuki beans are available, I suggest growing and hoarding them so you’ll have plenty to use once you get the recipe! The recipe can be purchased after Tsuyukusa reaches C rank. 

There are some general rules that affect the weather on your farm each day. Most days the weather is sort of random—but always within bounds.

Spring 1st-4th: Always sunny. 5th-28th: High chance of sunny, mild chance of rain. 28th-31st: High chance sunny, very slight chance rain.

Summer 1st-4th: Always sunny. 5th-8th: High chance sunny, mild chance rain. 9th-24th: Equal chance of either sunny or rain, mild chance of typhoon. 25th-28th: High chance sunny, mild chance rain. 29th-31st: High chance sunny, slight chance rain.

Note: If you've reached the 24th without a typhoon, then a typhoon will occur on the 28th. There can be a maximum of 4 typhoons each summer, and typhoons will never occur back-to-back. There will always be a minimum of 3 days between then.

Fall 1st-16th: High chance sunny, mild chance rain. 17th-20th: Equal chance of either sun or rain. 21st-24th: High chance sunny, mild chance rain. 25th-31st: High chance sunny, very slight chance rain.

Winter 1st-8th: Equal chance of either sun or snow. 9th-12th: Mild chance sunny, larger chance snow, mild chance blizzard. 13th-16th: Mild chance sunny, high chance snow, very slight chance blizzard. 17th-20th: Mild chance sunny, high chance snow, mild chance blizzard. 21st-24th: Very slight chance sunny, high chance snow. 25th-28th: Mild chance sunny, high chance snow. 29th-31st: High chance sunny, mild chance snow.

Note: See the note on summer, only replace the word “typhoon” with “blizzard.”
