Strength (Hearts) Cost Guide

Overview

Cost analysis of various sleeping locations

Table

This guide assumes that you already have each of the tools that don’t get consumed (basket, fishing rod, empty bowl).

(❗️The cheapest method involves harvesting, which is limited by the amount of resources on the map.)

Conclusion

The cheapest method is to harvest the freely available resources. Keep at least one each of a basket, a fishing rod and an empty bowl, and use/replace them as needed. As long as it’s available, Juicy Berries are the most worth it.

When you run out of harvestables, it’s not worth to buy the ingredients and keep using those methods (marked with ❗️). The next most financially optimal way is to grind money and stay at the Inn.
For a money-grinding guide see:

The most convenient method is if you use the Inn in the Square. It costs cash, but you gain Strength 1.67 – 3.33 times faster than with the harvesting methods.
