Okay so I think key for me is going to be selling turnips. This was my first time selling mine at a profit (I'd only bought 10) so now that I'm participating with you all I'll be buying more now knowing we are tracking together, this is great, thank you for the tips!
I'm wondering if it would be easiest to start a weekly thread for turnip tracking and general chat? Maybe Sunday start a new thread? Pending acceptance into our private FB group, Jen tysm for organizing that for us all.

seriously, how do you guys make so much money? What am I doing wrong? You need to do your money tree every day. Plant 10K bells, rotate them out, you should have one each day. That's 20k bells/day. Plant more fruit trees if you only have a few, your native fruit does not sell for as much as your sister fruit or other fruits. When you go to Mystery Islands, you should be chopping every single tree down, you should bang every rock to dust, and you can potentially fish up / catch TONS of high dollar fish and bugs, you have to be willing to toss the crappy fish and bugs. Use the wood and other resources to make things to sell to the Nooks. If you can, save your big fish and big bugs (big meaning HIGH dollar) for when CJ and Flick visit, they buy them for 50% over the Nooks price. Mystery Islands also vary depending on the time and which one you get, so you should look into your spawn times and what you're comfortable with doing. I prefer Mystery Islands after 7PM because I have better bugs, fish, and scorpions out there. If I get to one I don't want to spend time at, I'll bang the rocks, shake the trees for furniture, search for my message on the beach and leave. Fly to a new one. Use your resources you've stocked up to make the Hot Item of the Day for the Nooklings. On top of that, you can use a stone axe and bang your trees every day for more wood. <furiously scribbling down notes> Okay I have to get a handle on my trees. I have way too many cedars and hardwood trees (but still need for materials) and figure out how to relocate my fruit trees into an orchard. Still needing apples. Is it possible to mail fruit? If so would someone be willing to mail me a couple please? I'm doing my money trees correctly now, planting 10k into the gold hole. Just recently learned that hack, before I was just planting the 1k bag so just this week its started paying off The Mystery Island thing is new to me, I'm excited to try this tactic, thank you!

You can get wood from your fruit trees, so you should only need to keep some hardwoods/cedars. Those will give you the 2 furniture pieces plus bells when you shake them, wasps, and insects. I read somewhere to keep around 17, and if you don't have any then Isabelle gets pissed and you won't get a 5 star? Not sure how true that is.

In addition to the bells, furniture and wasps, you want to keep some cedar and hardwood because of seasonal decorations - the pink flowers in spring, holiday lights in December, etc.

Pending acceptance into our private FB group, Jen tysm for organizing that for us all. I've never made a profit on turnips and I've done a ton on my island. Turnips are quick and easy if you're willing to track them and travel, but before the threads we've had on turnips, I never traveled. You can do it without them, so don't feel like you have to, IMO!

What is the purpose of chopping every tree down? And do you have to dig the stump too?
Sock-got it! Thanks!

If I'm on bamboo island, for instance, I'll chop them all and dig out the stumps for ease of chasing scorpions. If I'm on an island without a good water source for fish, I'll leave just one tree (palm at night for the Goliath) and one stump (for jewel beetles, etc.). The rest go to decrease the other places bugs can spawn. HTH!

Okay Dallywood is open to all those who friended me! I just accepted two more FR right now. I'm working right now but I have the gates open so please come by! I haven't done anything today yet so IDK what the turnip prices are or what's selling at Nooks but if you could give me first dibs on what's limited I'd appreciate that. Please wander around and peek in my house. My kitchen is a disaster haha but I'm getting there. I'd LOVE input and ideas, please. Oh and check out my new cedar hot tub I put in my back yard, so tickled at that, thank you Dawnnikol and your daughter for everything! I'm standing my girl right at the gates but I can't interact really cause I'm working right now

I’m reading the words, and they’re in English, but I don’t get any of this 😂 Okay. Pretend the Mystery Island has 50 bugs/fish that can be out (spawned) at a time. If you have trees and flowers, you get a lot more, right? Well, they take the place of something you DO want. I don't want to catch those tiny white butterflies on my Mystery Island, I want the scorpions! So, I will pick all the flowers, chop wood, dig out stumps. This clears the entire island of places where those 50 bugs/fish can be because those butterflies can't show up on the flowers and bugs that show up on stumps, can't show up either. Now, the places the bugs can show up has been limited. Does that make more sense?

What’s a Goliath? You said leave a palm tree for that. Go to this site and have your mind blown. We printed out a list of bugs and a list of fish that we use to keep track. Your times vary your bugs and fish and so do your dates. We don't time travel, so that doesn't get thrown in our mix, but keep a close eye if you do!

Okay I'm back! I just closed my gates, thank you all who came, thank you for the sack of bells SockMonkey you didn't have to do that. Did you get up to my Zen garden in the exact same spot as yours? LOL. Oh I'm glad Mathilda could give you a recipe! I didn't know that worked like that either! That's awesome! So we should be going into villager homes then? Good to know I did not know that! And I love that DIY so cute making the Pina Colada drinks I have them EVERYWHERE cause I like REFRESHMENTS! ahahaha! @dawnnikole thanks for the apple and the great advice! momto1girl thank you and your sweet daughter again, I got the three flowers you left me, and a bag of bells thank you very much! okay so this is awk, so you can PM me..but someone bought one of the three limited edition thingies in the store. I kinda was hoping to get first dibs on that. What was it that you got? All there is is a little sign that says it's 'sold'. I hadn't been in my Nooks so far today so I don't know what was up for sale, I'm just curious.. again, thanks everyone for stopping by, so fun!

We left you a bunch of stuff by your house. okay O EM GEE I just FOUND what you left me! You said you left 'a bunch of things' by my house so I went up there and I didn't find anything and here I've been freaking out that I got hacked again! You left it over by my old house way on the other side of the island where I had relocated from! and wow, boy did you ever leave me some amazing things! and now I just turned around and saw the contents of the bells and oh geeze thank you I can't stop saying it, you just helped me SO much with my town...wahhhhh. What a lovely and fun thing this game has turned into. I can't wait to pay it forward some day when I'm at your level, which no doubt will be soon!
