Best Crops for Profit

Choosing the right crop is crucial for success. Below are top picks for different stages of the game, considering their value and growth factors. For exact values, always consult the main calculator.

Carrot

Base Value: 18 | Standard Weight: 0.24kg

The perfect starter crop. It's cheap, grows fast, and is ideal for mass planting to build your initial capital.

Bell Pepper

Base Value: 80 | Standard Weight: 0.27kg

A solid second step. Bell Peppers offer a significant value increase over Carrots, making them a great target for your first 10k-20k coins.

Beanstalk

Base Value: 18,050 | Standard Weight: 0.50kg

A high-tier crop for advanced players. It has a very strong base value and is an excellent candidate for Golden mutations.

Mushroom

Base Value: 136,278 | Standard Weight: 0.19kg

The endgame crop. With an enormous base value, a successful Mushroom mutation can result in one of the biggest payouts in the game.

Crop Farming Strategies

Beginner Strategy (0 - 50k Coins)

Your only goal is to generate cash flow. Forget mutations and focus on volume.

  • **Mass Plant Carrots:** Fill every available plot with Carrots. Harvest and replant as quickly as possible.
  • **Upgrade Your Tools:** Use your earnings to upgrade your watering can and shovel first. This speeds up your farming cycle.
  • **Expand Your Land:** As soon as you can afford it, buy more land plots. More plots mean more income per cycle.

Advanced Strategy (50k+ Coins)

Now you can start thinking about value-per-plot instead of just volume. This is where mutations come into play.

  • **Transition to High-Value Crops:** Start replacing your Carrot fields with Beanstalks or other crops with a high base value.
  • **Invest in Fertilizer:** Start using Standard and Golden fertilizers on your Beanstalks. The goal is to land your first Golden mutations for a massive profit boost.
  • **Use the Calculator:** Before you invest in expensive fertilizer, use the calculator to check the expected return. Ensure the potential profit is worth the risk and cost.
