Should I sell geodes in Stardew Valley?

You should sell basic geodes early for profit, but open Magma & Frozen Geodes (especially with the Crusher) as they're profitable, while Omni Geodes are best opened for museum/Iridium, as they sell for zero gold but yield valuable items like Iridium Ore, making opening them always worthwhile. After the museum is complete, selling basic geodes is generally better than cracking them for money, say Reddit users.

What does 75% profit margin do in Stardew Valley?

In Stardew Valley, a 75% profit margin setting means you only earn three-quarters (75%) of the normal selling price for your crops and fished items, making the game significantly harder and slower, as profits are reduced by 25% (100% - 75%), requiring more crops or alternative income like animals/mining to progress, explains wikiHow, Reddit users and Steam Community members. This option, added in Update 1.5, slows down early game progression, making tool upgrades and buildings major investments and forcing reliance on other skills, say Stardew Valley forum users and Reddit users.
