Planting Ancient Seeds on Fall 1st?

[Fragrance_of_Dark_Coffee]

Hey guys, I'm a little bit on edge right now.
I just hit fall 1st with FOUR ancient seeds (and one fully mature (planted)) in my inventory... is it possible to plant them right away and *at least* harvest them once?

I just hit level 9 farming so I guess it's possible to craft some tier-2 speed gro, but is there enough time for the ancient seedies to mature by then?

... and is it even worth it to plant them in the first place...? Greenhouse is yet to get...

It takes 28 days to grow, so you’ll need speedgrow. But you would only get one harvest (with both deluxe and normal speed grow). On average, you’d get two seeds from the seed maker, but I’m not sure if it’s worth it. If you can unlock the greenhouse in fall, I’d wait.

... that's the thing. I thought that by at least having one harvest (so around, 4 ancient fruit) I can then turns them into seeds to have 8 (4*2) at the start of Winter.

also, is it even possible to unlock Greenhouse in fall? I can manage the coop/barns product... but how about the winter forageable?

It's possible, since nothing winter-specific is needed for the pantry room. If you can get the fruits/artisan goods/animal produce (or possibly fish roe/flowers/brewed stuff if you have remixed bundles), you can get the greenhouse at some point in Fall. You're mixing it up with the craftsroom, which is where the forageable stuff go.

In Multiplayer my friend has been able to do that, but i am not sure if it would also apply to vanilla, as our run is heavily modded.

I did it in my current save. Got fish farmer bundle and rare crop bundle when I chose remixed bundles, so towards the end of Fall the Junimo repaired the greenhouse, the night after the rare seeds bore fruit. I picked the bat cave, which gave me enough fruits to complete the artisan bundle when combined with a jelly and a honey.

With the standard bundles you'd need to build and upgrade coop and barn early, at least one of them to the deluxe version unless you get some wool from Emily, and make sure the animals are happy. I'd say that makes it more difficult to complete the room and restore the greenhouse in Fall.

You usually want to plant them as early as you can because you can duplicate them in the seedmaker to make more Ancient Seeds. Them by the time you get to the greenhouse you should have enough that you could fill the whole place up with Ancient Seeds.

I would advise to wait. Even if you don't unlock the greenhouse over the winter, you can plant them on Spring 1 and harvest them all through summer and fall. It's totally fine to have a slower pace and less stress.

Often available as monster drops and barrel contents on floors 40-70.

That only gives 2 of the 4 items of winter forage for the room that repairs the bridge. And doesn't help any with the bundles for restoring the greenhouse.
