Why can't I find an Ancient Seed?

You're struggling to find an Ancient Seed in Stardew Valley because they're rare, but you can get them from digging artifact spots (Cindersap Forest/Mountains), fishing treasure chests, slaying bugs/grubs in the mines/Skull Cavern, or finding them in Artifact Troves. If you get the artifact, donate it to Gunther to get the crafting recipe, then use a Seed Maker on an Ancient Fruit to grow more, as this is the most reliable method for large quantities.
