Don't check the wiki for your first play though.
Fishing initially feels like it sucks ass but buy the training rod from Willie and practice, it will eventually just click.
Upgrade your hoe and watering can, it makes the early farming way less tedious.
Counterpoint: Maybe I'm just a filthy casual, but I would have never finished my first playthrough if I didn't read the wiki as I went along. There's a ton of stuff going on in this game, including things that aren't possible to discover without some very arduous trial and error (gift preferences, when and where to buy things, fish species hours and locations, etc). It's also not a story-heavy game so you can't really spoil much.
I guess I should have included to only play your first run until you complete the community center. By then you'll have a much better feeling for the game and all of the systems and starting over will go a lot smoother because you can actually plan ahead.
Or, fuck the watering can, just go mining a bunch, get that copper and silver, and use automatic sprinklers all day erry day.
Fully automated gay luxury farm communism
Even if you have sprinklers as soon as you can, you're almost certainly going to fuck up planning on your first playthough and upgrading the watering can will make it way less annoying. I never upgrade mine but I've played enough that I can sow planning everything ahead for when I have sprinklers.
