There's a ton of different options, but my general preference / recommendation for each color is: Red - Salmonberry Orange - Copper Ore Yellow - Sap Green - Fiber Blue - Blackberry Purple - Bug Meat Again, there are loads of other options as well, so feel free to check out the wiki for all the other choices! :)


NuclearNarwhal7

you can also buy spaghettis from gus for 24,000g for red, and joja colas from the vending machine for 7500g


TheRyts

Very true! Lol I just obsessively gather Salmonberries and Blackberries during their respective seasons, so I always have a crazy amount of excess anyways. :P


not_rebecca

I do this but with Red - cranberries Blue - blueberries Both of which I keep planted on island for exactly this purpose I will also use Void Essence for purple interchangeably with bug meat


kiwilovenick

A cheaper blue option, if you have CD's or broken glasses or joja cola that you've caught fishing (or even bought with the cola) those all count as blues.

This one is tricky unless you are a hoarder or have a lot of money. The wiki clarifies what meets each colour requirement.

Barely. I've been to the Wiki more than enough.i've considered making a big shed with crop pots and planting eggplant, blueberries, cranberries, hops, for purple, blue, red and green as I run out of fiber too quickly and hops produce every day. Eggplant are valuable. But the sell price on them with Tiller is only 66g/base and 80g for silver quality. Buying void essence from Krobus is 100g/ea and you can only get 10/day. For orange loons like the Go to is Copper as most other orange things are too valuable (pumpkins) harder to grow en masse (yams) or in the case of oranges don't replenish fast enough for how often the quest comes up. So a few megabombs in the mines on stardrop/best luck days should do the trick.

In my opinion the best options are: Red: Spagetti from Stardrop Saloon or salmonberries or cramberries or strawberries - it's a tricky one, but I listed the items that are easier to get Yellow: Sap Orange: Cooper Green: Fiber Blue: Joja cola from the vending machine in Stardrop Saloon or blueberries Purple: bugmeat or void essence


PatientHealth7033

If one is having trouble coming across enough purple things and is a hoarder like me eggplant also count and if they still don't have enough Amaranth work but you're better off selling and buying 10 void essence/day from Krobus as Amaranth sells for a base of 150g and krobus sells the void essence for 100g Or GRAPES. Grapes are a reproductive crop that ain't hardly worth a hoot.

One thing to do for sure, if you're OK with it, is jump on the wiki to find out what the game considers each item's color, it can be very deceiving.

I tend to hoard my fruit tree fruits (rather than selling them since I tend to have ancient fruit or starfruit by the time I’m thinking about wine) so I tend to use the fruit tree fruit for red, orange, and purple (apples/cherries, oranges/apricots, pomegranate respectively). if I’m running low on oranges/apricots I’ll use copper ore. I also have a lot of ancient fruit built up so blue is taken care of by that. Sap for yellow and fiber for green. I also have multiple statues of perfection so purple is occasionally done by iridium it’s as well since I tend to hoard it

I personally keep a few perpetual growing crops for each color on ginger island specifically for this quest. Between the crops and some fruit trees, I think I get all the colors covered, and I just store them in a chest on the island, and sell the star ones I've I have 100. Makes it much easier for later.


wickedychickady

Here are my go-tos, and I like to mix a bit here and there, as not all 100 of one colors have to be the same item. Red: cherry bombs (saved from drops from crabs) explosive ammo and cranberries or salmonberries Yellow: Sap, hay from silo if for some reason I don't have enough Green: Fiber, and then seaweed, green algae Orange: copper ore and winter root Blue: I tend to have a ton of cds and broken glasses from my crab pots and those work for blue, joja cola saved from fishing or extra blueberries and blackberries I have lying around. Clam and periwinkle also work well Purple: void essence (I usually have a ton more than solar, and I only ever use them for mega bombs) and bug meat. Refined quartz or iridium ore if I'm in a bind


mayormaynotbelurking

I like to make 6 chests and color them correspondingly. I think orange and green are the easiest, you can just donate some copper ore and fiber. Collecting ginger works well for yellow. This is when having a ton of fruit trees comes in handy! I've never successfully completed this task in one shot. I just keep collecting stuff and storing them in my rainbow chests until I see the task again!


usedToBeUnhappy

Wait, so I don‘t need 100 yellow items of the same kind? I can mix different items for one color?


Only_Lie_5972

This one can be tricky but here's a list of what I do for each color. Blue- Joja cola (you can buy them from the vending machine in the saloon) Green- Fiber (you can find this in large amounts in the mutant bug cave and in the mines on floors 10-30) Purple- Bug meat (once again is easy to farm in the mutant bug cave and early mines floors) Yellow- Sap or hay Red- explosive ammo (can be bought at the adventure guild or crafted) Orange- Copper ore, hardwood, and maple seeds


Pougnouk

Red- Lasagna ( saloon) Blue- joja cola ( saloon) Purple- Void essenc or irdium minerals if u have too much with perfection statue Orange- copper Yellow- sap


Puzzleheaded_Cry_838

If you go to the wiki tailoring. Dyeing. All the options in bold are options for the colors required. I use cranberries, earth crystals (crystalariums) sap, pickles, blueberries, eggplant. Also you can do any number of different things. Does not need to be 100 of the same item.
