Stardew Mega Coins: Player Rakes in Millions

A Stardew Valley player achieved a remarkable feat: amassing over ten million gold without leaving their farm. While the game's charm lies in Pelican Town's NPCs, the core loop centers on planting, cultivating, and harvesting. Normally, seeds are purchased, but this player exploited an early-game strategy using Mixed Seeds.

These seeds, obtainable by tilling soil or harvesting weeds, yield different crops depending on the season. This method, detailed by Ok-Aspect-9070 on the Stardew Valley subreddit, was particularly effective on the Four Corners farm map due to its readily available Mixed Seeds and integrated mining area.

The following table outlines the crop variations from Mixed Seeds per season:

While Cauliflowers provide early income, the strategy's efficiency skyrockets after crafting a Seed Maker (requiring Farming Level 9 and a gold bar). This machine produces 1-3 seeds from input crops, with a rare chance of yielding lucrative Ancient Seeds (28-day growth cycle).

This remarkable achievement, spanning nine in-game years and 25 real-time hours, showcases impressive dedication and strategic farming. While not unlocking any achievements, it’s a testament to the game's depth and the possibilities inherent in its seemingly simple mechanics.
