Spelling and grammar are different; a sentence can contain no spelling errors but may be grammatically incorrect.

I have run across several but I can't remember most.  The one that sticks out is that experience is spelled incorrectly when you are mining.

Soandso mined x whatever ore for 0 experince.

When placing peppers on the ground, the phrase, "its ready to be hollowed" or similar appears. It should be "it's". It is. Its implies ownership.

The scythe does a great job and cutting down x stalks for you.
Remove the 'and'.

Hitting the Table violently, you smash it to pieces!

Table shouldn't be capitalized.

Better phrasing is

"You hit the table violently, smashing it to pieces!"

Nicodemus placed Canopy Magazine in a  Outhouse

Am I correct in saying that there is one too many spaces between 'a' and 'Outhouse' ?
Also, shouldn't it be 'an outhouse' instead of 'a Outhouse'?

Another:

After using honey fungus on flowers.  When you mouse over the funginated flowers you get this:
x% Dieing Red Tulip

'Dieing' should be 'dying'.
