Introduction
Fruit trees are essential items that every player should have on their island in Animal Crossing. They not only produce fruit that can be sold for bells or used in crafting, but they also add a sense of beauty to your island. Planting fruit trees in Animal Crossing is incredibly easy, and this guide will show you how to do it.
Step 1: Acquiring fruit saplings
The first thing you need to do is acquire fruit saplings. You can obtain these by purchasing them from Nook's Cranny, receiving them as gifts from other players, or getting them from your island's villagers. Different fruits are available for purchase or gift during different seasons of the year, so be sure to check the availability.
Step 2: Choosing a location
Next, you'll need to choose where to plant your fruit tree. Fruit trees need open space to grow, so make sure your chosen location isn't obstructed by buildings, cliffs, or rivers. It's important to note that fruit trees need at least one free block of space around them to fully grow.
Step 3: Planting the sapling
To plant the sapling, open your inventory and select the fruit sapling. With the sapling in hand, make your way over to the selected location and stand where you want to plant it. Then, hit the A button to plant the sapling in the ground. Voila! Your fruit tree has been planted.
Step 4: Caring for your fruit tree
To make sure your fruit tree grows successfully, there are a few things you can do to help it along. Water the sapling daily for the first 4-5 days after it has been planted to help it grow quickly. It's also important to make sure the tree is not blocked by other items, as this can prevent the tree from bearing fruit.
Step 5: Harvesting fruit
After a few days, your fruit tree will start to bear its fruit. Fruit takes 3-4 days to mature, so be patient! Once the fruit is ripe, walk up to the tree and press the A button to shake it. The fruit will fall to the ground, and you can then pick it up and add it to your inventory.
Conclusion
Planting fruit trees in Animal Crossing is a simple yet satisfying task. With a little patience and care, you'll be able to enjoy the benefits of having fresh fruit available on your island. So get planting, and let your island bloom with the beauty of fruit trees.
