How to Plant Trees in Harvest Moon

Planting trees can be a great way to beautify your farm and also provide some useful resources such as fruits and wood in Harvest Moon. If you're new to the game or haven't planted trees before, here's how to get started:

Preparing for Planting

The first step to planting trees is to clear the land where you want to plant them. You can use your tools such as an axe or a hammer to remove any obstacles on the ground. Make sure you have enough space for the tree to grow to its full size without getting hindered.

Next, you need to have the right tools to plant trees. You will need a hoe to till the soil and a sapling of the tree you want to plant. Saplings can be purchased from the Seedling Shop found in most towns.

Planting a Tree

To plant a tree, start by tilling the soil with your hoe. Aim for a spot where you want the tree to grow. When the soil is ready, equip the sapling and place it into the ground. You'll need to water the sapling once a day until it grows into an adult tree.

Each tree has a different growth time, so you need to be patient. Apple trees take around 14 days to grow while peach trees may take up to 28 days. Once your tree has grown, it will start producing fruits that you can harvest.

Maintaining Your Tree

To keep your trees healthy and productive, you need to take care of them. Make sure you water them every day and also use fertilizer to promote their growth. You can buy fertilizer from the Seedling Shop or make it yourself from animal waste.

You also need to prune your trees to keep them healthy. Use your axe to remove any branches that are not producing fruits or look sickly. Pruning helps in developing a stronger trunk and helps air and sunlight reach the parts that need it the most.

Selling the Fruits

Once your tree starts producing fruits, you can harvest them and sell them to the local store or market. They will pay you a fair price, and you can use that money to keep the farm running or upgrade your tools.

In conclusion, planting trees is a great way to add some diversity to your farm while also providing you with some essential resources. With a little patience and care, your trees will grow strong, and you'll have an abundance of fruits to enjoy.
