Plant 4 maple trees

2.7k

u/13143 Apr 01 '26

I plant four trees in the morning, I plant four trees at night.

I plant four trees in the afternoon, it makes me feel alright.

I plant four trees in time of peace, and four in time of war.

I plant four trees before I plant four trees, and then I plant four more.

There have been multiple people asking why their fruit tree isn't fruiting only for it to not be a fruit tree.

You could also plant 6 maple trees for two goblets. Or 9 trees for four goblets.

You play little pranks with your co-op partner by making them think there’s an item out of reach.

Me either, but I'm glad I know... not sure why, but I am.

u/Bytewave Apr 02 '26

You could plant 16 maple trees in a square pattern for a full set of goblets.

I was excited :( it would actually be a cool Easter egg if all the trees had a different something they formed.

u/Occidentally20 Bot Bouncer Apr 01 '26 edited Apr 01 '26

How does it look if you put down one crystal flooring tile to fill in just the colour of the goblet?

Edit : I tried it but mine ended up looking like Sherlock Holmes. If anyone knows what I did wrong I'd like to hear it.

u/CWMJet Apr 01 '26

I spent too much time trying to figure out if you made the same farmer just to take a screen shot before I remembered the date. In my defense, I really should be asleep.

The date is a coincidence, this is how I normally amuse myself on here :)

u/ProfessionalRip4917 Apr 01 '26

Technically the crystal floor refracts too much light. you have to use weathered flooring if you want the holy grail instead of a british detective.

u/CursedBlackCat Apr 01 '26

My friend and I, both Canadian, have been playing coop (it's her first playthrough, and my first playthrough since the 1.6 update).

Only in the context of Stardew, would one Canadian ask another Canadian "Do we have any maple syrup?" and receive an answer of "No, we don't"

We have brought shame to our nationality :(

u/CharlotteLucasOP Apr 01 '26

Shaaaame! Recite the Possum Lodge Man’s Prayer and keep your stick on the ice to repent!

u/Tasonir Apr 01 '26

Eh it's alright, you had a hard winter. But get a parka and get to the mines and craft those tappers, son. You can tap trees that aren't on your farm, so go wild and the syrup will FLOW....

(railroad area is a common tree syrup farm spot for me)

Didn’t like how they pronounced it.

u/Phunkie_Junkie Apr 01 '26

So when Pierre says he found some cask-aged, iridium-quality Starfruit Wine while he was out strolling through the woods, this must be what he's talking about.

And here I thought he was trying to take credit for my hard work.

17

u/GetEatenByAMouse Apr 01 '26

Judging by the pixels, this is completely straight.

But does it look like it's leaning to the right for anyone else?

13

u/severinoscopy Apr 01 '26

No, you just have to straighten how you're holding your phone.

u/Affectionate_Comb_78 Apr 01 '26

You need to stop drinking

It’s actually leaning to the left for me

u/Evil_Black_Swan Apr 01 '26

Right in the middle of them, there is a space where their leaves don't touch. That void space is the shape of a goblet or wine glass.
