Sprinklers

Updated Irrigation

Three sprinkler recipes water tilled soil at 6am in Stardew Valley 1.6.x. The basic one misses the corners. A Pressure Nozzle widens each one.

Each sprinkler waters at 6am. The recipe names are Sprinkler, Quality Sprinkler, and Iridium Sprinkler.

Krobus sells one Iridium Sprinkler every Friday for 10,000g. The Traveling Cart can stock a Sprinkler or a Quality Sprinkler. Quality Sprinklers can also come from a Mystery Box or a Golden Mystery Box.

Pressure Nozzle

Pressure Nozzle
Pressure Nozzle sprite

A Pressure Nozzle is one attachment for the whole sprinkler. Qi's Walnut Room sells 4 for 20 Qi gems. The sell price is 200g. It also drops rarely from monsters during Qi's Hungry Challenge, a Skull Cavern Invasion, and from slimes in the Mines during Danger In The Deep or after the Shrine of Challenge.

The nozzle and an Enricher cannot sit on the same sprinkler.

Enricher

Enricher
Enricher sprite

An Enricher applies one fertilizer type when you plant seeds inside that sprinkler's normal range. Load the fertilizer before you plant. An iridium sprinkler's range is 24 plantable tiles, so a full load is 24 of that fertilizer. Qi's Walnut Room sells 4 Enrichers for 20 Qi gems. The sell price is 200g.

Greenhouse fertilizer stays put, so an Enricher there is a one-time load.

Fertilizer from an Enricher is separate from the watering. One sprinkler holds either a Pressure Nozzle or an Enricher.

Where they fail

Sprinklers do not water Garden Pots, and they do not water a pet's bowl. They can water the troughs in a Slime Hutch. They cannot be placed on sand, which is most of the Beach Farm.

Where the water lands

The pass is 6am, and it waters only tiles that are already tilled. It does not water the tile the sprinkler stands on. Hoe and plant after 6am and that crop stays dry until the next morning.

A Sprinkler covers the tile above, below, left, and right. The four corners stay dry. A Quality Sprinkler is a 3 by 3 with the machine in the middle, so those corners are watered. An Iridium Sprinkler is a 5 by 5: 24 tiles around the one it stands on.

A Pressure Nozzle is one item for the whole sprinkler. The basic sprinkler then reaches the corners, a 3 by 3. A quality sprinkler becomes a 5 by 5. An iridium sprinkler becomes a 7 by 7.

Since 1.5, hoeing beside a sprinkler does not pick it up. Since 1.6, a torch can sit on any of the three.

Sell prices are 100g, 450g, and 1,000g. A Skull Cavern treasure room can hold one or two iridium sprinklers.
