Stardew Valley Player Reveals Helpful Bee House Tip to Make Tons of Money With Honey
18.04.2024 - 23:41 / gamerant.com / Ios / Nintendo / Matthew Schomer
One enterprising Stardew Valley player may have found the most profitable method of gathering flower honey that the game allows. While Stardew Valley offers players a lot of different ways to build their fortunes, this particular layout for placing flowers and bee houses can produce a lot of flower honey, a valuable artisan good, on a relatively small patch of land.
Flower honey is even more valuable than normal honey in Stardew Valley, and players can get some from a bee house every four in-game days as long as their bee house is within five tiles of most types of flower. While all types of flower honey offer a high selling price, the most profitable is honey grown near Fairy Rose flowers, which sells for 952g per bottle if a player has taken the Artisan perk (or 680 gold for players without that perk). By comparison, the second-most-valuable type of honey, Poppy Honey, sells for 532g with the Artisan perk and 380g without it.
Since Fairy Rose flowers take the longest to bloom of any in Stardew Valley— at 12 days required for full growth — Reddit user JohnBrownStan decided to put their collection of bee houses on Ginger Island, where crops will continue to stay alive forever once they've been planted. The design requires a sprinkler at the center, flanked by one Fairy Rose plant in each of the four cardinal directions. They then placed a total of 62 bee houses around the four flowers in a pattern that allows the player character to access each bee house without destroying any of the others, which they said is the most efficient design possible for collecting flower honey.
According to the player, these 62 bee houses arranged in this pattern yield a profit of 59,024g per harvest. Considering that bee houses in Stardew Valley take four days each to produce a new portion of honey, meaning two harvests almost every week, that works out to more than 1.65 million g per in-game year, all dedicated to a 13x13 square of land that requires no maintenance.
Any player wishing to replicate this feat is sure to make a ton of profit from it, but they're also going to have to invest a lot of resources. Bee houses are unlocked at farming level 3 and can be crafted using 40 wood, eight coal, one iron bar, and one maple syrup in Stardew Valley. With this many bee houses, that adds up to 2,480 wood and 496 coal. But with a design that churns out huge profits this often, it's more than worth the price of materials.
Stardew Valley is a hit Indie release that spawned a cult following thanks to its similarities to titles like Harvest Moon and The Sims. Players will take control of their own characters as they are dropped into the eponymous Stardew Valley and given an old dilapidated farm. They'll cultivate new crops and
