Should I Pull Weeds in ACNH?
If you’re new to Animal Crossing: New Horizons (ACNH), you may have found yourself surrounded by a sea of weeds. These pesky plants may look annoying, but should you pull them, or just leave them be? In this article, we’ll dive into the world of weeds in ACNH, exploring the reasons why you should and shouldn’t pull them.
Why Pull Weeds in ACNH?
Weeds are notorious for ruining the aesthetic appeal of your island. When left unchecked, they can spread quickly and cover even the most well-manicured lawns. Removing them can significantly improve your island’s visual appeal. Additionally, certain weeds may even affect the environment’s rating, impacting the services and amenities you can enjoy.
Removing Weeds with Leif
Starting with the Happy Home Paradise update, Leif now offers a Weeding Service that can permanently remove all weeds from your island for 100,000 Bells. If you’re strapped for space or prefer the convenience of having Leif handle it, this is an option worth considering. However, if you’re looking to earn some bells or gain a sense of accomplishment, manually removing weeds can be a rewarding experience.
What Happens When I Remove Weeds?
When you pull weeds in ACNH, they sell for a whopping 10-20 Bells. While it’s not the most lucrative option, each weed removed counts, especially if you have a massive infestation on your island. Additionally, removing weeds can help to Raise Your Island’s Rating. This improvement can have a ripple effect, opening up new amenities and services, such as the return of Kapp’n, a popular ship captain, or the activation of DIY crafting recipes.
A Guide to Pulling Weeds in ACNH
To get rid of weeds in ACNH, you’ll need:
- Your trusty net
-
A weed-ridden plot of land (preferably one you have permission to edit)
- Timing is Everything: Weeds grow and bloom at different times, so try to remove them when they’re not yet in full bloom. Timing your weeds removals effectively can be a crucial element in removing them efficiently.
Don’t Miss This Opportunity: Before you grab your net, take note of your Island’s Weather. The weeding bug, which emerges during Sunny or Cloudy days, only allows you to remove certain weeds. The Snowman bug appears during Snow days, also affecting which weeds you can remove.
- Wear Your Favourite Apparel: When dealing with those pesky weeds, wearing Special Shirts and Hats may grant additional weeding bonuses, making the experience more engaging and rewarding!
Sell Weeds and Earn a Profit
But what to do with the weeds after removal? As mentioned, you can sell them for 10-20 Bells, or simply discard them for a minimal effort. It’s all about finding ways to contribute to your growing bell purse.
