Grapes are a Forage item found during Summer, and have a chance to grow from Summer Seeds. They can also be grown from Grape Starters in Fall. Grape Starters can be purchased at Pierre’s General Store, JojaMart, and the Night Market. They take 10 days to grow and can be re-harvested every 3 days.
It is highly recommended that you stock up on Grapes during the Summer and Fall to generate a stock of Raisins that you can use throughout the year. Alternately, you can grow Grapes in your Greenhouse or on Ginger Island, where you will not be limited by the seasons.
How To Use Raisins
Place one Raisins inside any Junimo Hut on your farm. While the Raisins are in effect, Junimos will have a chance to harvest double crops. This can significantly increase your crop yield while active, especially if many crops become ready during that time. Junimos may also move slightly faster when moving through your fields to harvest crops.
Raisins last for one week after they are placed. After that, the Raisins are consumed by the Junimos. You can stack multiple Raisins and they will continue consuming them at a rate of one per week. When the Junimos run out of Raisins, they may leave a message for you outside of their hut.
Other Raisin Uses
Shipping one Raisin is also required to get the “Full Shipment” achievement and to reach Perfection.
