Summary/Description
This mod lets you hover your mouse cursor over any crop and use a keyboard hotkey (currently: F1) to instantly increase the crops growth phase to the next phase.

I initially designed this for myself as I am currently in the process of learning to design mods for Stardew Valley. I found it was cumbersome and took too much time to manually water crops and sleep several times to test the growth cycle of my custom crops. This mod let me install a custom crop mod I was working on and instantly increase its current phase of growth from a seed all the way to a harvest without ever needing to leave the in game location; which has saved me a lot of time.

I hope this mod may be useful to someone else.

Current version: 1.1.1
- Fixed a bug where the Manifest.json file displayed the wrong version number.

Previous version: 1.1.0
- Added the ability to reconfigure the keyboard hotkey in the config.json file. Default hotkey is F1.

Manual Installation
1.Unzip the file in the Mods directory of the Stardew Valley folder: 'Stardew Valley\Mods'
As long as you have SMAPI and Content Patcher installed, this should be the only step.

Plans
If this mod receives any downloads or positive reception, I plan on expanding the functionality to allow you to also reduce the current phase of growth of a crop or instantly grow a crop to the harvest phase with a different hotkey.
