Getting the golden watering can in the game is primarily achieved through crafting after obtaining the required recipe.
Obtaining the Golden Watering Can Recipe
The key to crafting this valuable tool is first getting the DIY recipe. According to the information available, the recipe for this item can be obtained by Isabelle after receiving a 5-star island evaluation.
Achieving a 5-star island rating requires dedicating time and effort to developing your island. This includes activities such as:
- Adding various trees and flowers.
- Placing furniture and decorations outdoors.
- Fencing off areas.
- Keeping the island free of weeds and clutter.
- Having enough residents.
Once your island reaches the coveted 5-star status, visit Isabelle at the Resident Services building, and she will provide you with the crafting recipe for the golden watering can.
Crafting the Golden Watering Can
After acquiring the recipe from Isabelle, you can craft the golden watering can at any DIY workbench. Crafting requires specific materials:
- 1× Watering Can: You'll need a standard watering can to start with.
- 1× Gold Nugget: Gold nuggets are rare crafting materials usually found by hitting rocks with a shovel or axe.
Here's a simple breakdown of the crafting requirements:
| Item Required | Quantity | How to Get |
|---|---|---|
| Watering Can | 1 | Craft or purchase from Nook's Cranny |
| Gold Nugget | 1 | Hit rocks, balloons, messages in a bottle |
Combine these items at a DIY workbench, and you will successfully craft your own golden watering can. This upgraded tool typically has enhanced durability and can water a larger area (a 3x3 grid) compared to standard watering cans.
