Okay thanks :D
Another thing: I know I will have complications later on for this.

But for the Blue Bell quest, you have to have Perfect Butter. I have a feeling I might not get very far in my farm, and how many hearts does it take for a cow to give you perfect butter?

Where can we plant grass? Do we have to set up fences of any sort (for the animals to graze around?)

So we put Decent Fertilizer in the darkest soil (which isn't very rich) in the beginner's plot, and I can have some Good crops? I had a perfect crop recently. :3

I thought Jake said that 'the more you plant crops, the richer the soil gets' or something like that. :S

Perfect Butter is actually for the Green Bell. By the time you get to that part in the game, your cow should be quite good. Just make sure you pet, brush, feed, and milk your cow daily. You can also rub them with the player two remote twice a day like you can with the people.

Your animals don't need fencing, they just walk freely around the farm land. You can buy grass seed from the seed shop, and then plant it on your crop plot. Honestly though, the animals rarely eat from it, so it is much easier to just buy fodder from the famr and feed them in the barn everyday. The animals grow more in affection for you when you feed them in the barn in the morning. Make sure you still let them out though!

It really depends I think I got perfect butter when my cow had two or three hearts.



You just plant it in your field no need for any kind of special treatment.



You're supposed to put fertilizer on the lightest soil. The darker the soil is the better the quality is. Also I thought the quality of soil decreased when it didn't have anything growing in it. I'm not sure though I heard it somewhere.

Oh and Zboy for some reason the 2 player remote thing only works once on livestock for some reason. At least that's how it was in all the Animal Parades I've played.

Ahh that is right! Excuse me for my incorrectness. You can onyly rub the livestock once a day. Thanks for correcting me Patchy. :)

Hurray, thats the best help I can get (: I'm a bit uncertain in many places as I'm a plain beginner in this game but I'm getting used to the large island. I still need to raise 5000 gold for the debt to be off my shoulders (is this Animal Crossing or what? I think not!). When you pay off the debt, is the other plot unlocked for free or do you have to pay a load of money for THAT too?

The other plots cost 100,000G and 150,000G. It is quite a pain. I just started my second year, and I still havn't purchased either of them.

What the...? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaeyes.gif)

Well I'm certain I won't buy them then lol. The price should be reduced!! >.<;

Are there ANY benefits of paying off the debt? >.>;

I coudn't remember if there was a reason, so I decided to search for it. It seems like there really is no reason to unless you plan on buying another plot or vacation house.

Oh, it looks like one of the plots is 70,000G instead of 100,00G. That big one still costs 150,000G though.

If you don't want anymore land just don't pay it off. There is no other point to so don't waste your money. The mayor is never going to care. I'm rich and I still haven't paid it off (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) .

Blah blah blah, interruption, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) (I apologize) Anyway, I've started playing AP again so yay! Hehehe, but of course I have no sense of direction. That is, the direction towards whom I will choose to marry. I made a poll once, but that was then, and now I have only one girl file to choose ONE spouse. >:D So I see myself making another poll later. Bahaha, I would kindly ask you guys to help me. ;D As for my boy file, I also dont know but I havent really focused on that part as of now. All I am certain of is that Candace, Luna, Vivi, and Maya have taken my interest. Maybe Kathy? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) So yeah. I have troubles... Other then that /I've/ only rung the red bell, and soon will ring the yellow, etc.

^Marry Vivi. She's sweet, unique, and the cutest woof woof you'll ever meet :3.
She's rude and obnoxious, but there's something so hot about her >.>; she's awesome (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalagrin.gif)

Another question:
After talking to Ramsey about the Red Bell, he said Chloe was playing outside and might have it. I checked the Ushi no tane website and it said that you have to walk past the General Store in the Garmon mines district. However, I ran past the store and there was no sign of her. I saw Bo walking but it didn't trigger any event. Help?

And after that, how can you find the other ores besides Copper and iron? Its like I can't find the others in the mines.D:

Lol, I'll make a poll for both genders then. And yeah I agree. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) ... But, after talking to Ramsey you should head towards the Carpenters. Then that should trigger an event in which they play "kick the can" with the Red Bell. As for the ores, look around levels 7-9 until you find them, bring things or pick up things you could use to replenish at least some of your health along the way if anything. ♥

I'm pretty sure you need to find the other ores before you can trigger the scene with Chloe and the bell. Finding them is very much luck based. Get yourself something to munch on so your character doesn't keel over, and smash every (non-lumber) rock in the mine. It might take you a couple of days to get them.

I did it the same day, and no you trigger the event after passing by the carpenters and then within that event of "kicking the can" you find out the Red Bell is jammed into Ramseys Chimney. So then, Ramsey tells you he needs various ores to create a bundle of smoke and unclog the chimney. The iron ore, copper ore, silver ore, and gold ore. (: After getting them the main character catches it and returns it to level 10, ringing it when it is sunny.

Okay, I'll do that.
I'm tired from playing Harvest Moon: Animal Parade for three hours straight. It's raining, and I'm happy. (:
I'm planning to play the field in HM Animal Parade, but I'm going to marry the Wizard. He's so awesome :3

I'm a whore :D

That's what I did. Just be careful if you woo the Harvest King it might cause some problems (Stupid Harvest King!!!).

LOL nonono, I'm a whore. I cant EVEN chooose.

Ah.

Haven't played through the beginning in a long time.

Aha, its okay, I recently played it so thats why.

I loved the storyline of this game compared Tree of Tranquility.
